  讀故事記單詞雅思詞匯-The crazy alchemist

  The alchemist had always been alienated from his peers because of his alarming theories. Only the most alternative universities were willing to allocate small allowances to him to further research his ideas.When he found evidence of aliens living in the highest altitude mountains of the world, he was recognized as an all-round failure. It was therefore even more unfortunate that he was right,

  The alchemist ignored' the further alienation and built an alliance of extremists to get physical proof of the alien and to alter the world's view of his theory. When they returned with photos and video of the alien he was sure he would walk down many aisles to claim international awards and financial allocations to test all of his other theories. However, this proof did nothing to alleviate the concerns of his peers that he was truly insane.

  When the alchemist was alerted that the aliens were coming down from the mountains and alighting on the roofs of buildings his peers still did not believe what he alleged. When an alien finally walked in to the conference room everything changed. In addition to being named chief ambassador to the aliens, the alchemist was allotted more honor than he had ever dreamed. All of his dreams had come true.

  The aliens unfortunately suddenly developed an allergy for human beings and started dying. The alchemist found that they were allergic to human hair, developed a cure, and saved the aliens. Now he was the hero of the galaxy!

  讀故事記單詞雅思詞匯-瘋狂的煉金術士

  由于這位煉金術士提出的理論令人驚恐，他總是被同僚們疏遠。只有最另類的大學肯撥小額的津貼讓他進一步研究他的思想。當他找到證據證明世界上海拔最高的山上有外星人居住時，他被認為是個全面的失敗者。而更為不幸的是，他居然是對的。

  煉金術士沒有理會人們對他的進一步疏遠，他成立了一個極端分子聯盟，以尋找外星人存在的真憑實據，借此改變世人對他的理論的看法。當他們帶回外星人的照片和錄影帶時，他確信他將走過許多條過道領取各種國際大獎和撥款，這樣一來他就能證明他提出的所有其他理論了。然而，這一證據并沒有減少同僚們的擔心，他們認為他的確是瘋了。

  當煉金術士注意到外星人正從山上下來并且降落在屋頂上時，同僚們還是不相信他的斷言。最后一個外星人走進了會議室，一切才發生了改變。煉金術士不僅被任命為首席駐外星大使，而且還被給予了超出他夢想的殊榮。他所有的夢想都變成了現實。

  不幸的是，外星人突然開始對人類過敏起來并且開始死亡。煉金術士發現他們對人類的毛發過敏，于是研制了一種解藥，拯救了外星人。現在他成了星系英雄!
