First I looked at some of the 6 discoveries. One of the earliest discoveries, the famous experiment that proved that bodies of different 7 fall at the same speed, was made by Galileo when he was 26. Madam Curie started her research that 8 to the Nobel Prize when she was 28. Einstein was 26 when he published his world-changing theory of relativity. Well, 9 of that. Yet I 10 if those¡°best years¡±were true in other 11 .
Then how about the field of 12 ? Surely it needs the wisdom of age to make a good leader. Perhaps it 13 ,but look when these people 14 their career. Winston Churchill was elected to the House of Commons at the age of 26. Abraham Lincoln 15 the life of a country lawyer and was elected to government. At what age? Twenty-six.
But why 16 best years some after thirty? After thirty, I 17 ,most people do not want to take risks or try 18 ways. Then I thought of people like Shakespeare and Picasso. The former was writing wonderful works at the ripe age of fifty, while the latter was 19 trying new ways of painting when he was ninety!
Perhaps there is still 20 for me.

correspondents, and editors are some of the people who create newspapers. They are known as
journalists.
Reporters are journalists who go out and get the news. They attend meetings. They cover events
such as court cases, plays, and sporting events. They interview people to get their views about what
is going on. Reporters must be able to write a story quickly so as to meet a deadline. People do not
want to read old news. They want to know what is going on as soon as it happens. Reporters
sometimes phone or email their notes and quotations (ÒýÓÃÓï) to the paper from the scene. A
reporter in the office then writes the story.
A "stringer" is a parttime reporter who works when called on. A fire might break out in one part
of town. An editor may ask a stringer who lives near the scene to cover the story.
Reporters often work with photographers, or photojournalists. Photojournalists take the pictures
that illustrate (ͼ½â) the stories in a newspaper. They have to edit their pictures in time for them to
appear with the story.
A correspondent is a journalist who covers the news in a particular place or on a subject that he
or she has special knowledge in. Large newspaper groups have correspondents in foreign countries
to report the news there. A paper may have a correspondent who covers just medical news.
An editor is a journalist who works at a desk in a newspaper office. Editors prepare the reporters'
stories to be printed in the paper. They decide which story is most important and gets the frontpage
headline. They decide which pictures to use. Editors do not often write the news, but they do write
editorials (ÉçÂÛ) in which they state their views on a topic or an issue.
People who work as journalists have some things in common. They are curious, they like to write,
and they have a "nose for news". They can spot news as it happens. They know what people want to
read about.
