10、he company was a lawyer, a young man of about twenty-five. On being asked his opinion, he said, "Capital punishment and life imprisonment are equally immoral. If I were to make a choice between them, I would rather choose the latter Anyway, it's better to live than not to live at all."

11、 A lively discussion followed. A banker, who was then younger and more nervous than the lawyer, suddenly lost his temper and cried out, "It's a lie. I bet you two million .You wouldn't stick in a cell even for five years.""If you mean it," replied the young lawyer, "

12、I bet I'll stay there longer; make it fifteen instead of five.""Fifteen! Done!" cried the banker. "Gentleman, I bet you two millions.""Agreed. Two millions for my freedom," said the lawyer.So this wild, ridiculous bet came to pass. The banker could not hide his

13、 excitement During supper he said to the lawyer jokingly, "Come to your senses, young man, before it's too late. Two millions are nothing to me, but you stand to lose three or four of the best years of your life. I say three or four because you'll never stick it out any longer Don't

15、 make this bet? What's the good? The lawyer lost fifteen years of hi life and I threw away two millions.

19、 distance education, which helps students who take classes by computer over the Internet to learn certain courses and earn a degree. And it has become more and more popular with both young people and educational institutions.The School of Continuing and Professional Studies of New York University in

20、 Manhattan began online classes in 1992. Its Virtual School has taught more than 10,000 students from across the United States and other countries.Last year，the school launched NYU Online. It offers NYU's first online Programs for a bachelor's degree. Programs are offered in three areas; lea
