A
decade ago, Nancy did what so many Americans dream
about. She quit an executive position and
opened a household
device
store in her
neighborhood. People like Nancy made the decision
primarily
for the
improvement
in the quality
of their lives.
But, to run
a business
on a small scale
is by no means an easy job. Without her steady
income,
Nancy had to
cut
back
on her daily expenses. Sometimes
she did not even have the money to pay the
premiums for the various kinds of
insurance
she
needed.
Fortunately, through
her own hard work, she has now got through the
most difficult time. She is
determined
to continue
pursuing
her
vision of a better life.

of
Einstein

s
theory
of

and
the
50

anniversary
of
his
death.
In
1905
Einstein
published
five
highly
important
essays
in
the
history
of
science, thus revolutionizing physics.
His great achievement can be

impressive

constant
