Unfortunately, three men died in a car accident. Soon they found themselves at the gate of heaven and saw God. Before getting in, God asked each of them the same question. If they could answer the question perfectly, they would be allowed to get into the heaven.

    "I'm sorry for your death," said God. "But when you are in your casket(棺材)and your friends and family are standing beside you, what would you like to hear them say about you?"

    Afraid of being refused, the three men were nervous. They thought for a while.

    The first man said, "I would like to hear them say that I was a great doctor of my time, and a great father to my children." Hearing this, God let him in.

    The second man said. "I would like to hear them say that I was a wonderful husband and school teacher who made a great difference to children." God agreed and let him in too.

      Then it was the last man's turn. He looked anxious and replied, "God, I have lots of things to do for my family and the world. So I would like to hear them say, 'Look! He's moving!' "

      Thomas Alva Edison is one of the greatest inventors of all times. One of his most famous achievements is the electric light. He tried thousands of times to make a long lasting light bulb. Although the light bulb is not his invention, he is the only one to have made such a successful light bulb. Many people remember him for the invention of the electric light. He held a lot of patents (专利权) worldwide. Many of them were approved(批准) in America.

    We can find his inventions in many fields. In fact, many of the advanced inventions were based on his ideas. He invented a phonograph (留声机),a film picture camera, a ticket recorder and so on.  

    Edison was not a good student at school. But he loved to do new experiments. When he was still a child, he built his first lab to perform his experiments.

      An amazing story of Edison's childhood is that he almost made his servant die. Edison used to think that birds ate insects and these insects might make them fly. So he collected these insects and blended (混合) them to make juice. He then let his servant drink the juice. After drinking the juice, the girl lost her sense. But luckily, she was saved.

      Easter is a festival to celebrate the rebirth after the cold winter. We can see lots of symbols of new life on Easter, like eggs, chicks and rabbits.

    Unlike Christmas, Easter isn't on the same date each year. It is on the first Sunday after the full moon following the spring equinox(春分). People in the UK have a holiday which is almost as long as the Christmas holiday. It's a public holiday. Everyone looks forward to their Easter break because it's a moment to relax, have a short holiday or visit family and friends.

    For most England children, Easter means chocolate eggs. Shops are full of chicks, rabbits and flowers. They sell a lot of chocolate eggs. Ninety million chocolate eggs are sold in the UK each year, and each child gets on average(平均) eight chocolate eggs that day. Most doctors advise people to eat Easter eggs in moderation(适度)．

    On Easter Day, people paint on eggs to give others as presents. And they always hide eggs for children to find. Some places even hold competitions to see who can roll an egg down a hill without breaking it!       

There are some great women scientists in the world. The world would certainly not be so wonderful without their hard work.

Here is a list of some top women scientists and their achievements.

◆Marie Curie

      Curie was born in Poland on November 7, 1867. She was a pioneer in the field of radioactivity(放射). She was also the first person to win two Nobel Prizes, one in physics and the other in chemistry.

◆Rosalind Elsie Franklin

     Franklin was born on July 25, 1920 in London. She graduated from Cambridge University. She played a great role (角色) in the discovery of the structure(结构)of DNA.

◆Annie Jump Cannon

      Cannon was born on December 11, 1863. She was an American astronomer. She divided more than 500,000 stars into different kinds and discovered more than 300 stars in her life.

◆Sally Kristen Ride    

      Ride was born on May 26, 1951. She was an American astronaut. She was the first American woman to travel into outer space.

◆Grace Murray Hopper

      Hopper was born on December 9, 1906 in New York. She was one of the earliest computer programmers and a leader in the development of computer software.

    Over the last few centuries, there have been many changes in our life.

    To start with, people were not able to travel such a long distance in such a short time in the past. Planes were not very popular at that time because they used to be a very expensive way to travel. Nowadays, more and more people can travel by plane and we can take many other fast and comfortable vehicles, such as cars and high-speed trains.

    Secondly, in the past, people had to work much harder because they did not have the tools we have today. Today, most of the difficult and dangerous work is done by computers and machines.

      Thirdly, in the past, the living conditions were not as good as they are now. There were no bathrooms or running water in many houses, and many people could not buy things like refrigerators, TV sets or washing machines. Now, most families have several of these things.

      Lastly, communications have become much easier than before. In the past, we kept in touch with others by writing letters or sending faxes, but now we have many other ways to choose from, such as making a phone call, sending e-mails or messages and chatting online. Moreover, we can even see the people whom we are making a phone call with through mobile phones, and we can see each other while chatting online.

Thanks to the developing technology, especially the Internet, our life has become much easier and happier than before.
