Which came first, the chicken or the egg? This is one of life’s 1 questions and people have been debating about it for thousands of years. Now scientists believe they have solved this 2. Researchers from Sheffield and Warwick Universities in England discovered the answer 3. They used a super computer to observe the shell-making process while a new shell was 4. Then they found one protein called OC17 that is 5 for forming eggshell. This is only found inside a chicken’s body, which is proof that the 6 came first. The team was 7 looking at how animals and birds make eggshells but suddenly made their surprising 8. The big question now is where chickens came from. The 9 is from dinosaurs.
The research team said eggshells are one of nature’s most 10 creations. Professor John Harding from the team told reporters: “Understanding how chickens make eggshells is fascinating in itself, but it can also be 11 in designing new materials.” Eggshells are very lightweight but incredibly strong. Even the most up-to-date materials 12 by the world’s top engineers cannot produce anything as 13 as an eggshell. Professor Harding added that 14 eggshells could help to cure bone diseases and design materials for the construction industry. “Nature has found wonderful ways that 15 for all kinds of problems in materials science and technology — we can learn a lot from them.” he said.

One afternoon, many years ago, I went to pick up my mother from work. I got there a little early so I 1 the car by the roadside and waited for her.
As I looked 2 the car window, there was a small park where I saw a little boy, around two years old, 3 freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short 4. The boy had a big smile on his face 5 he had just been set free from some sort of6. The boy would then fall to the grass, 7, and without hesitation or without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could again, still with a 8 on his face.   
Kids, when they fall down, don't view their falling down as failure, but 9, they treat it as a learning experience. They try and try again until they 10. While I was touched by the boy's persistence, I was 11 touched by the manner in which he ran. With each attempt, he looked so 12 and so natural — no signs of fear, nervousness, or of being discouraged. His only 13 was to run freely and to do it as effectively as he could. He was just being a 14 — just being himself—being completely in the moment. He was not looking for 15 or was not worrying about whether 16 was watching. He didn't seem to be bothered by the fact that maybe someone would see him 17 and that it would be 18 if he did fall. No, all that 19 to him was to accomplish the task, to feel the experience of running fully and freely. I learned a lot from that 20 and experience, and have successfully brought that lesson with me in my many pursuits(追求) in life.
