Last evening I was watching the evening news on television. The news was about a prize for scientific  1   ;I forgot what it was. The announcer, whose name was Ralph Story, said something that caught my  2  .^All great discoveries, ̄he said,^are made by people between the ages of twenty-five and thirty. ̄  3   a little over thirty myself, I wanted to disagree with him.  4   wants to think that he is past the age of making any discovery. The next day I happened to be in the public library and spent several hours looking up the  5  of famous people and their discoveries. Ralph was right.

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.

One fine afternoon I was walking along Fifth Avenue,   21  I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks. Why I wished to buy only one pair is   22  . I turned into the first sock shop that   23  my eye, and a boy clerk who could not have been more than seventeen years old   24  . ^What can I do for you, sir? ̄ ^I wish to buy a pair of socks. ̄ His eyes were shining. There was a note of   25  in his voice. ^Did you know that you had come into the finest place in the world to buy socks? ̄ I had not been aware of that, as I entered the shop   26  . ^Come with me, ̄ said the boy, excitedly. I followed him to the back part of the shop, and he began to take down from the shelves box after box,   27  their contents for my enjoyment. ^Hold on, young man, I am going to buy only one pair! ̄ ^I know that, ̄ said he, ^but I want you to see  28  beautiful these are. Aren¨t they wonderful? ̄  29  was on his face an expression of pleasure,   30  he were uncovering the mysteries of his religion. I became far   31  interested in him than in the socks. I looked at him in amazement. ^My friend, ̄ said I, ^if you can keep this up, if this is not  32  the enthusiasm that comes from having a new job, if you can keep up this enthusiasm and excitement day after day, in ten years you will own every   33  in the United States. ̄

My amazement   34  his pride and joy in salesmanship will be easily understood by all who read this article. In many shops the   35  has to wait for someone to serve him. And when   36  some clerk does notice you, you are made to feel as if you were interrupting him. Either he is   37  in deep thought in which he hates to be disturbed or he is chatting with a girl clerk and you feel like   38  for ^being too rude ̄.

He shows no interest either in you or in the goods he   39  to sell. Yet possibly the very clerk who is now so indifferent(絶町議) began his career with hope and   40  . The daily work was too much for him; the newness disappears slowly; his only pleasures were found outside of working hours; and he saw younger clerks who had more enthusiasm in their work promoted over him. He became sour. That was the last stage. His usefulness was over.

    ^Well, ̄ he said, ^if you¨re really serious about studying further, come with me. I have a   31  blank form at home. ̄

There were two people in line, waiting for their  37  . Just then, the counter official announced that no more forms would be   38  after mine. I breathed a sigh of   39  .

    You Are Going Places

One day I came home from school, changed my clothes and got ready for work. I work at a local restaurant in town as a cashier and waiter.

    I went to work feeling  21  . And to make matters worse, I was busy that evening. It' s the same thing over and over again. 22 with customers who complain about their food and where they are 23 is too big or too small. Little things like that tend to 24 a lot of us 25 but we manage to deal with it.

Trying to keep up with all the dirty tables, customers leaving and coming in and 28 running all over the house, it was crazy. 29 these elderly women were watching 30 I was working to make sure every table was clean and ready for the next customers.

    When they 31 their meals, I took their plates back to the kitchen. They talked to me for a while about school, how I was doing, what 32 I was in and what I planned to do in the future.
