题目内容
One day a famous speaker gave a speech to a crowd of people. He held up a 36 bill. He asked, “Who would like this $20 bill ? ” Hands were 37 . Then he said, “I am going to give this $20 to one of you, but first let me do this.” He began to crumple(弄皱)the 38 . He then asked the audience, “ 39 still wants it ?” Still the hands went 40 in the air.
“ What 41 I do this? ” He asked, and he 42 it on the ground, and started to step on it. He 43 it up. Now the bill was 44 and crumpled. “ Now who still wants it?” Still the hands went up.
“My friends,” He continued, “You have all 45 a good lesson . No matter 46 I did to the money, you still wanted it because the bill did not lose its 47 . It was still worth $20. Many times in our 48 , we are dropped, crumpled, and stepped on, because we sometimes 49 wrong decisions, or we may 50 with something we do not 51 .When that happens, we feel depressed and think we are 52 . But in fact no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. The worth of our life comes not 53 what we do or whom we know, but in who we are! Don’t forget ‘the worth of a thing does not depend on its outside 54 , but on its inner value.’ This is the 55 of life.

I don’t want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what it’s like to work in a field dominated (controlled) by men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the origin of the universe, the shape of space, time and the nature of black holes.
At 19, when I began studying astrophysics(天体物理学), it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph.D. at MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research, the issue started to bother me. My every achievement—jobs, research papers, awards—was viewed through the lens (镜片) of gender (性别) politics. So were my failures. Sometimes, when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus (相对于) right brain, or nature versus nurture (培育), I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind.
Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would eventually become my reply to any and all provocations (挑衅) : I don’t talk about that anymore. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn’t want to deal with gender issues. Why should curing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist? After all, I don’t study sociology or political theory.
Today I research and teach at Barnard, a women’s college in New York City. Recently, someone asked me how many of the 45 students in my class were women. You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer, 45. I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific research and a desire for children. And I don’t dismiss those concerns. Still, I don’t tell them “war” stories. Instead, I have given them this: the visual of their physics professor heavily pregnant doing physics experiments. And in turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science. And that’s a sight worth talking about.
