Reading 1: BREAKING RECORD

Do you think

l Kozo Haraguchi
h
doesn’t think so. Haraguchi may be getting old, but he is still breaking records. He set a
new world record for the 100-meter race in the 95-to 99-year-old age group. The race

That’s fast for anyone. It was his first time running on a rainy day. After the race,

thinking to myself,
myself “II mustn

line ”
It may have been the first time Haraguchi ran in the rain, but it was not the first time he
broke a record. Five years before, in 2000, he broke the record for the 100-meter race
f men age 90 to

Haraguchi did not start to compete in races until he was 65 years old. He said he started
running as a way to stay in shape. In addition to running, he takes an hour-long walk
around his neighborhood every day for exercise.
46
v2.0013106215
Fauja Singh, age 94, holds a world record, too. He ran a marathon in just 5 hours and 40
minutes. That makes him the fastest marathon runner ever in his age group.
Singh started running only 11 years ago after he moved from India to England to live with
his son. Since then he has run five marathons in London, one in Toronto, and one in New
York. Recently, he was part of the world’s oldest marathon team in Edinburgh.
Singh’s training schedule includes a daily 10-mile walk and run. “I run at least 10 or 12
miles on the weekend, and walk 10 miles every day,” he says. He also has a weekly training
session with his coach. In addition,, he doesn’t smoke or drink because he believes it is bad
for his health.
I seems that Singh gets faster as he gets older. When he was 89 years old, he completed
his first marathon in 6 hours and 54 minutes. The next year, he got the same time, which
set a world record for 90-year-olds. A year later, he ran even faster, taking 9 minutes off his
record time. The following year, he ran the London marathon in 6 hours and 2 minutes. His
best time came in the Toronto marathon,, where he set a new world record of 5 hours and
40 minutes at the age of 92. That’s quite a record for someone his age or any age.

Reading 2: ALBERT EINSTEIN: THE WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS SCIENTIST
A Curious Child
Albert Einstein was born in Germany in 1879. As a child, he was very shy
and quiet. He did not talk at all until age three. According to one story,
young Albert suddenly spoke at the dinner table one night. He said, “The
soup is too hot.” His parents asked, “Why haven’t you ever said a word
until now?” Albert replied “ Because up to now everything was all right.”
Albert may have been quiet, but he was always thoughtful and very
curious. His limitless curiosity showed up in the questions he asked. For
example, at age five he asked, “Why does a compass needle always point
in the same direction?” When he was fourteen he asked, ‘What would the
world look like if I rode on a beam of light?” He never lost his curiosity.
As an adult he said, “The important thing is to not questioning.”
50
v1.0013105202
Revolutionizing Science
In 1905, Einstein wrote four important papers. The ideas he wrote about
revolutionized the ways people thought about space and time. In 1915, he
published his theory of relativity. His famous equation, E = mc2, explains
the relationship between energy and time. It became one of the most
important laws of physics. He won the Nobel Prize for physics in 1921.
Life in the United States
Einstein immigrated to the United States in 1933 and became a United
States citizen in 1940. Einstein joined the Institute for Advanced Studies in
Princeton, New Jersey. He lived a quiet life. He enjoyed classical music and
played the violin. One day, after Einstein played with a group of musicians,
one of them said, “ He’d be a good musician if only he could count!” This
was a funny thing to say about Einstein, because his life’s work involved
very complicated math.
Einstein kept his sense of humor throughout his life. A magazine called
Scientific America once had a competition for the best short explanation of
the theory of relativity. Einstein said, “I’m the only one of my friends who
is not entering. I don’t believe I could do it.”
Albert Einstein died on April 18, 1955, in Princeton, New Jersey. He had
changed the world. In 1999, Time magazine named him the “Person of the
Century.”
