Once, Einstein gave a lecture in a university. After his speech, the audience started asking questions.
A girl asked, "Do you think you're1 giant of science?" Einstein said 2 a smile. "A giant is a person who is tall in height. You see I'm so small, How can I be a giant? Maybe I see a bit farther, only 3 I stand higher!" Then a boy asked. "You mentioned you stand higher than 4 . It reminded me that you had a talk with a lady on the top of the Alps. I don't want to ask 5 you talked about, but I want to know whether you realized you had been a top in the history of science when you stood on the top."
Looking at the boy6 , Einstein replied, "Well,7 height cannot become a top. And there is no top that no one can get to, so we don't want to be a top, but we want to be a person to climb to the top!" Then he took up a piece of chalk and 8 on the blackboard, "Standing on the top, you are not tall, but even smaller!" Then he said, "Though I stand high, in the eyes of the world I'm still small! Finally, I can tell you a sentence, which was the last one I 9 the lady on the top of the Alps, ‘Any top can be reached, for there is no giant in the world but the one 10 stands higher!'"
A storm of applause sounded. The lady who listened to Einstein's instruction on the Alps that year was no other than Madam Curie!
