What makes the news most fascinating is that the solver isn’t on the
faculty of a top university and wasn’t known until this month to others who
work in the field. He is a Chinese immigrant in his 50s named Yitang Zhang,

The guys' argument is against this statement: Harvard graduates are good for

called "success". But Gates succeeded without graduating from Harvard.
This tiger-mom's education tactic may raise some exceptional kids, but also

这位21岁的英国男演员目前正在参加百老汇的舞台剧《How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying》的表演，他今天被拍到时穿了一件黑色皮夹克，头戴了一定写着“Porkchop Productions”的棒球帽。
丹尼尔出色的表演已经得到了各方很高的评价，美联社称，虽然他不是职业的百老汇歌手，但这并不重要，他工作很努力，我们都支持他，即使他像他所饰演的角色一样还没有很高的声望。
