When I sat down to    17    on them that evening, I found them to be the most    18    problems my professor had ever given us. Night after night l worked, trying first to solve one then the other with no    19  . But I kept at it.
　　Several days later,  I made a breakthrough(突破)and    20    both problems.  I took the homework to class the next day. The professor told me to    21    it on his desk. It was piled so high with papers that I was afraid that my homework would get lost in the mess.    22  , I dropped it off and went on my way.
　　Six weeks later, on a Sunday morning,1 was awakened by some loud    23    on the door.1 was a bit shocked to see it was my professor. He    24    that the two problems on the blackboard were not homework, they were two famous outstanding problems that leading mathematicians so far had not been able to solve. He could    25    believe that in only a few days I had worked them both out.
　　If someone had told me that they were two famous unsolved problems, I probably wouldn't have even tried to solve them. It goes to show the power of positive thinking.

　　Many children love to play with snow in winter. But Long Chuan has come to hate it.
　　This year his hometown suffered from snowstorms for nearly a month. The heavy snow stopped cars and trains, broke the electricity(电)tower and turned tap water to ice.
　　Every day Long Chuan had to walk several kilometers to carry drinking water. “I couldn't ride a bike and it took me 3 hours to walk to school. I can't remember how many times I slipped(滑倒)on the hard ice,” said Long Chuan.
　　Long is not alone. This year millions of people in central and southern China had a freezing winter without enough water and electricity. The biggest snowstorms in 50 years killed more than 100 people. They also cost the country 111.1 billion yuan.
　　Experts(专家)say a special type of climate condition, La Nina, caused the storms. During a La Nina, the water in the Pacific Ocean(太平洋)near the equator(赤道)becomes colder than usual. It changes the weather around the world.
　　Besides China, Canada, the US and Middle Eastern countries also met with heavy snowstorms this winter. The special climate caused the recent flooding in Australia, too.
