英文名人成长故事急啊急！！！快啊！，是英文版的啊50词就够了

1809年2月12日，亚伯拉罕·林肯出生在一个农
民的家庭。小时候，家里很穷，他没机会上
学，每天跟着父亲在西部荒原上开垦、劳动。
他自己说：“我一生中进学校的时候，加在一起
总共不到一年。”但林肯勤奋好学，一有机会就
向别人请教。没钱买纸、笔，他放牛、砍柴、
挖地时怀里也总揣着一本书，休息的时候，一
边啃着粗硬冰凉的面包，一边津津有味地看
书。晚上，他在小油类下常读书读到深夜。
长大后，林肯离开家乡独自一人外出谋生。他
什么活儿都干，打过短工，当过水手、店员、
乡村邮递员、土地测量员，还干过伐木、劈木
头的重力气活儿。不管干什么，他都非常认真
负责，诚实而且守信用。
他十几岁时当过村了里杂货店的店员。有一
次，一个顾客多付了几分钱，他为了退这几分
钱跑了十几里路。还有一次，他发现少给了顾
客二两茶叶，就跑了几里路把茶叶送到那人家
中。他诚实、好学、谦虚，每到一处，都受到
周围人的喜爱。
1834年，25岁的林肯当选为伊利诺斯州*，
开始了他的政治生涯。1836年，他又通过考试
当上了律师。
当律师以后，由于他精通法律，口才很好，在
当地很有声望。很多人都来找他帮着打官司。
但是他为了当事人辩护有一个条件，就是当事
人必须是正义的一方。许多穷人没有钱付给他
劳务费，但是只要告诉林肯：“我是正义的，请
你帮我讨回公道。”林肯就会免费为他辩护。
一次，一个很有钱的人请林肯为他辩护。林肯
听了那个客户的陈述，发现那个人是在诬陷好
人，于是就说：“很抱歉，我不能替您辩护，因
为您的行为是非正义的。”
那个人说：“林肯先生，我就是想请您帮我打这
场不正义的官司，只要我胜诉，您要多少酬劳
都可以。”
林肯严肃地说：“只要使用一点点法庭辩护的技
巧，您的案子很容易胜诉，但是案子本身是不
公平的。假如我接了您的案子，当我站在法官
面前讲话的时候，我会对自己说：‘林肯，你在
撒谎。’谎话只有在丢掉良心的时候，才能大声
地说出口。我不能丢掉良心，也不可能讲出谎
话。所以，请您另请高明，我没有能力为您效
劳。”
那个人听了，什么也没说，默默地离开了林肯
的办公室。

Albert Einstein was born in Ulm,in the Kingdom of Württemberg in the German Empire on 14 March 1879.His father was Hermann Einstein,a salesman and engineer.His mother was Pauline Einstein (née Koch).In 1880,the family moved to Munich,where his father and his uncle founded Elektrotechnische Fabrik J.Einstein & Cie,a company that manufactured electrical equipment based on direct current.
The Einsteins were non-observant Jews.Albert attended a Catholic elementary school from the age of five for three years.Later,at the age of eight,Einstein was transferred to the Luitpold Gymnasium where he received advanced primary and secondary school education until he left Germany seven years later.Although it has been thought that Einstein had early speech difficulties,this is disputed by the Albert Einstein Archives,and he excelled at the first school that he attended.He was right handed;there appears to be no evidence for the widespread popular belief that he was left handed.
His father once showed him a pocket compass; Einstein realized that there must be something causing the needle to move,despite the apparent "empty space".As he grew,Einstein built models and mechanical devices for fun and began to show a talent for mathematics.When Einstein was ten years old,Max Talmud (later changed to Max Talmey),a poor Jewish medical student from Poland,was introduced to the Einstein family by his brother,and during weekly visits over the next five years,he gave the boy popular books on science,mathematical texts and philosophical writings.These included Immanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason,and Euclid's Elements (which Einstein called the "holy little geometry book").
In 1894,his father's company failed:direct current (DC) lost the War of Currents to alternating current (AC).In search of business,the Einstein family moved to Italy,first to Milan and then,a few months later,to Pavia.When the family moved to Pavia,Einstein stayed in Munich to finish his studies at the Luitpold Gymnasium.His father intended for him to pursue electrical engineering,but Einstein *ed with authorities and resented the school's regimen and teaching method.He later wrote that the spirit of learning and creative thought were lost in strict rote learning.At the end of December 1894,he travelled to Italy to join his family in Pavia,convincing the school to let him go by using a doctor's note.It was during his time in Italy that he wrote a short essay with the title "On the Investigation of the State of the Ether in a Magnetic Field."
In late summer 1895,at the age of sixteen,Einstein sat the entrance examinations for the Swiss Federal Polytechnic in Zurich(later the Eidgenössische Polytechnische Schule).He failed to reach the required standard in several subjects,but obtained exceptional grades in physics and mathematics.On the advice of the Principal of the Polytechnic,he attended the Aargau Cantonal School in Aarau,Switzerland,in 1895-96 to complete his secondary schooling.While lodging with the family of Professor Jost Winteler,he fell in love with Winteler's daughter,Marie.(His sister Maja later married the Wintelers' son,Paul.) In January 1896,with his father's approval,he renounced his citizenship in the German Kingdom of Württemberg to avoid military service.In September 1896,he passed the Swiss Matura with mostly good grades (including a top grade of 6 in physics and mathematical subjects,on a scale of 1-6),and,though only seventeen,enrolled in the four-year mathematics and physics teaching diploma program at the ETH Zurich.Marie Winteler moved to Olsberg,Switzerland for a teaching post.
Einstein's future wife,Mileva Marić,also enrolled at the Polytechnic that same year,the only woman among the six students in the mathematics and physics section of the teaching diploma course.Over the next few years,Einstein and Marić's friendship developed into romance,and they read books together on extra-curricular physics in which Einstein was taking an increasing interest.In 1900,Einstein was awarded the Zurich Polytechnic teaching diploma,but Marić failed the examination with a poor grade in the mathematics component,theory of functions.There have been claims that Marić collaborated with Einstein on his celebrated 1905 papers,but historians of physics who have studied the issue find no evidence that she made any substantive contributions.
