23、The Ph.D. degree (博士学位) is the highest degree one can get at university. Recently an 89-year-old man named Manfred Steiner got a Ph.D. degree in physics (物理学) and made the news. It is really difficult to imagine such an old man could get a Ph.D. degree.

In fact, Manfred Steiner didn’t really need another Ph.D. degree, because he already had two. He had been a professor (教授) for years.

Manfred Steiner was very clever when he was young. He did very well in his studies. At high school, he showed great interest in physics. However, his parents advised him to study medicine. He followed their advice and went to study medicine at university. In 1955, he got his Ph.D. degree in medicine and in 1967, he got his second Ph.D. degree.

In 2000, Manfred Steiner retired, but he didn’t want to waste time. He still remembered his childhood (童年) dream. He realized that he had time to study physics. So he made a decision to take physics classes. After years of hard work, he finished enough classes to get a college degree. That’s when he decided to get a Ph.D. It took him a long time, but at age 89, he finally got his Ph.D. degree in physics on November 2nd, 2021.

Manfred Steiner set a good example. Never give up your dream if you have one. And remember: you are never too young or too old to learn.

A．not easy

C．comfortable

D．impossible
