Isn’t it strange how chance can play such a large part in what we become? If Carolyn hadn’t stumbled into that engineering course, she would never have become an engineer. At the time she did not know the first thing about anything mechanical. But when it comes to hard work, she is no stacker. She threw herself into study and joined in the project to make a hybrid vehicle. She admits that she often found studying math difficult, but she gritted her teeth and got on with it, working on the premise that math is a hard subject for most people. Girls, she argues, are no more at a disadvantage in this respect than boys. Nonetheless, she still had moments of panic when she found making progress particularly difficult.
Carolyn concludes that we should not allow cultural expectations to limit our horizons, for we are far more flexible in what we can achieve than they would imply.

4）如果猎人没有看到一群象朝他的营地（campsite）走来，他就不会开枪。
