Fame troubled Marie Curies and also her husband, because science was their world and in their world of science fame and honor had no value.
One day, when a writer for a newspaper tried to ask Marie about herself and her thoughts and her beliefs, she answered him, “IN science we must be interested in things, not in people.” Much of the real character and spirit of this unusual woman is found in these few words, which she later repeated often. One evening, at a big party, a friend asked her if she would like to see the king of Greece, who was also a guest. She answered in her simple manner, “I do not see the value of it.” Then, seeing that she had hurt the feeling of her friend, she quickly added, “But…but…of course, I shall do whatever you please, just as you please.”

Attention, please! I’m going to give you a summary of today’s discussion about whether we should go online in our spare time.
Most students think we can go online as much as possible in our spare time because we are free then. Through the Internet, we can gain plenty of the newest knowledge and the latest news at home and abroad. What’s more, network offers us a convenient way to communicate with each other. The Internet makes our lives outside class colorful and various.
On the other hand, a few students partly agree to this idea. Going online is part of our daily life but they suggest a time limit. They’ve found that more students are playing computer games instead of studying their lessons. There’re also a few students who are often absent from school for days to go online.
I think we should make proper use of the Internet.
That’s all. Thank you!
