| Have you ever met anyone of your age from America? Do you think you would have a lot in common with middle school students there? With only one look, you can see lots of differences. For example, classes in American schools are smaller than yours. Most classes have no more than 30 students. Most students in the US don't wear school uniforms. And they don't have group exercises each day as the way you do. If they see your exercises, they will think you are very strange! In fact, Chinese students and American students have very different lives. What's the first thing you think about when you wake up in the morning? It's probably your lessons at school. Chinese students are very hard-working, always under lots of pressure (压力) from their parents and teachers. Chinese students study hard at night, and sometimes even on the weekend because their exams are very important. For Chinese students, school is life, but not for American students. They don't have to worry about passing exams all the time, so they can spend time in and out of school doing things they enjoy. Kids do different things for fun. Many American teachers think that just studying hard isn't enough to make a good student. They encourage (鼓励) students to try lots of different things.

a look at what Albert Einstein was doing at the age of 26.
100 years ago, Einstein was working in Switzerland. His hobby was physics. Without much money or
help, he wrote five papers (论文) for a physics magazine. Three of these greatly changed the study of
physics and our understanding of space, time, light and matter (物质). His most famous work is on the
Theory of Relativity (相对论). Einstein was given the Nobel Prize (诺贝尔奖) for it is discoveries. Although
he did many other things later, 1905 has been called Einstein's "Year of Wonders (奇迹)". It has been 100
years since then. Because of this, the UN has named 2005 me World Year Of Physics.
Fifty years after Einstein's death, a question is asked, "Will there ever be another Einstein?" It may take a
1ong time. After all, Einstein was born more than 200 years after Sir Isaac Newton, another great scientist.
Besides, physics is a different field (领域) now, and education is different, too. Even if you can't be the
next great scientist, it is still helpful to remember some of the things that made Einstein great. He thought
independently (独立地) and read widely. He left us with a formula (公式) for life: If A is a success in life,
men A=X+Y+Z.X is work; Y is play; and Z iskeeping your mouth shut.
