Passage29
Paul Johnson was 16 years old. He was very
shy30 and didn't talk much to
anyone31. But his
science teacher, Mr Smith,
noticed32 that there was something different about him and he showed
great
concern33 for Paul.
Paul didn't talk much to anyone but he did talk with Mr Smith. "I want to learn all about
science," Paul
said34. He began to study science in the first-year class. After a
few35 days, he
appeared36 in the second-year class. Paul studied very hard. Soon he knew everything that second-year
class was
learning37. Then he read all the science books in the school library.
One day after school Mr Smith
found38 Paul in the classroom working on the blackboard. Paul
was
drawing39 pictures.
"What are you doing?" asked Mr Smith, with
interest40. "What are these
drawings41 about?"
"I want to
invent42 things. These are the drawings of my first
invention43," Paul answered.
"What's your invention?" Mr Smith said.
"I have an idea for
television44--for a way of sending pictures through the air," Paul answered.
"Please let me tell you about it, Mr Smith. You are the only
person45 who can understand what I
have done." It's
amazing46 that a boy of 16 showed his teacher drawings for television.
