Sarah Hutchins is a young girl．She has won a prize from Amazon．com in a competition{#blank#}1{#/blank#}young inventors． Sarah invented “ camoculars ”by putting binoculars(双筒望远镜) and a camera together．She was one of thousands of young  people who {#blank#}2{#/blank#}their ideas to Amazon．com the company mat organized the competition．

    Sarah was at a concert when she thought of {#blank#}3{#/blank#}invention．“I was sitting a long way from the stage and I was watching the band through my binoculars．While I was{#blank#}4{#/blank#}，I thought，'I'd love to be able to take a picture of this !”Then I got a(n){#blank#}5{#/blank#}．Why not have binoculars with a camera inside them?”

    When she got home，she {#blank#}6{#/blank#} a pair of binoculars and a  cheap camera  and put them together．Her sister was watching her and told her about the {#blank#}7{#/blank#}．So Sarah sent her idea to Amazon．com and two months later, she got a surprise．

    Amazon．com honed to say that she was a(n){#blank#}8{#/blank#}．They didn't give her the top prize，but she won $1，000 and a trip to New York．

“What are you going to invent{#blank#}9{#/blank#}?”asked some people． “I don't know，” said Sarah．“{#blank#}10{#/blank#}you just sit there and think，you won't invent anything because you get ideas at strange moments．The only thing I can do is keep my eyes and ears open!”

    I was born and raised in Ireland and lived there until I was nineteen years old. I came to this country in 1913 where I held several jobs{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(earn) a few dollars before enlisting in World War I. After being discharged, I bought my own cab and have owned one ever since{#blank#}2{#/blank#}hasn't been too easy at times, {#blank#}3{#/blank#}my wife takes care of our money and we have a good bit put away{#blank#}4{#/blank#}a rainy day.

    Most people think taxi drivers are tough. But I think people get the{#blank#}5{#/blank#}impression that they are bad. Taxi drivers are just like other people. Most of them will{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(regard) as honest fellows. I've been in the taxicab business for thirty-five years. In all my years of driving a taxicab, I have never had any trouble with the public, not{#blank#}7{#/blank#}with drunks. Even if they get a little headstrong once in a while, I just agree with them and then they behave{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(they).

    I believe honesty is one of the greatest{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(gift) there is. I believe in God and try to be a good member of my parish. I try to act toward others like I think God wants me to act. I have been trying this for a long time, and the longer I try, the{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(easy) it gets.
