Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein was born on March 14th,1879 in Germany. When he was a child,he was curious about everything, but he was considered to be slow at learning. In 1886, he began to study in Munich. He studied mathematics as well as religion. In 1896,Einstein graduated from high school at the age of 17.

Four years later, Einstein became a maths teacher. In 1905, he received a doctor’s degree. By the year 1915, he had developed the famous Theory of Relativity and became famous in the world. He proved that light is bent as it passes the sun. Because of his great achievement, he won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922.

Einstein was one of the greatest scientists in the 20th century. Some people say that he was a genius. But I think the main reason why he was so successful was his hard work .

2. Museums can educate people

3. Museums are centers for research.

4. Museums can attract tourists to the city 1. Museums use up a great sum of money

2. Museums are usually in old buildings, so they need protection

Most cities have at least one museum, but how important are museums to people living in the 21st century?

Some people think that museums use up the money which could be spent on other things. Besides, museums are usually in old buildings, so they often need protection.

In my opinion, museums can help people understand what happened in the past. If we have a better understanding of the past, we may improve our life in the future. Museums play an important role in educating people and they are centers for research. Also, museums are very important for tourism. They attract a lot of tourists to the city each year.

To sum up, it seems to me that museums are an important part of our life. They are worth visiting and protecting.

After two minutes later I stopped a passing car and took the old man to the nearest hospital.

Possible version:

It was 7:15 on the morning of February 8, 2000. I was walking along Park Road towards the east when an elderly man came out of the park on the other side of the street. Then I saw a yellow car drive up Third Street and make a right turn into Park Road. Suddenly the car hit the man while he was crossing the road. He fell with a cry. The car didn’t stop but drove off at great speed heading west. I noticed the driver was a young woman and the plate number was AC864. About two minutes later I stopped a passing car and took the old man to the nearest hospital.

（A）

At 7:15 on the morning of Feb,8th ,2000, I was heading east on the south side of the Park Road, taking my morning walk as usual. I saw an old man on the other side of the road outside the gate of the City Park. He was just crossing the street when a car on the 3rd Street made a sudden right turn at the crossing. The car was so fast that the old man even didn’t have time to dodge and the car hit the elderly hard. I thought the driver would stop to help but she didn’t. Instead, she just drove off, leaving the old man still lying on the ground in pain. Fortunately, I noted down the details: it was a yellow car, the plate number of which was AC864, and the driver was a young lady. After that I went over to check out the old man.

（B）

It was 7:15 on the morning of Feb,8,2000. I was walking along the southern side of Park Road. I noticed that an old man coming out of City Park was going to cross the road. There was no car at the moment, so the old man started to cross the road. What happened next really surprised me. A yellow car roared down the 3rd Street, made a right turn and knocked the old man down. It happened in such a short time that the old man had no time to react. Seeing this, I rushed to the place where the old man was hit just in time to see the plate number of the yellow car. It was AC864.

Yuanmingyuan , which is a ruined park, is located in the north-west of Beijing. It covers an area of 3.5 square kilometers. It was built during the Qing Dynasty. After 150 years of construction, it became one of the most famous palaces in China as well as in the world.

However, when Anglo-French forces invaded Beijing in 1860, the whole palace was set on fire. Treasures were taken away and stones lay in ruins.

It was not until the founding of New China that it began to be protected. Part of it was rebuilt in 1980’s.

The stones take on a golden color at the sunset, as if they were telling the story of yesterday.
