The First Woman Doctor

In early days no medical(医科的)college took a woman student. Elizabeth Blackwell, however, was determined¹ to become a doctor. The young American wrote again and again to a number of medicalcolleges, asking if she could be enrolled(录取), but each time the answer was NO.

Then one day, to her surprise, she got a letter from the president of a college in Geneva(日内瓦), which said YES.

At first Geneva College, like the other colleges, was not willing to enroll² Liza. But later the important people of that college learned that Liza's application(申请)had the support of a famous doctor, and they were afraid to offend(得罪)that.
