听力原文： After retiring from 30 years of teaching, Ethbell Pepper could easily have decided to sit back and relax and enjoy a peaceful retirement. But that kind of life is not for Ethbell Pepper. "I just wanted to do something different. If you are going to participate in life, do it. Don't just sit down and look out the window," she says. At 68, she decided to become one of the pioneer participants in a program at the University of California. The program offers campus housing and classes to people over sixty. She enrolled in a class called Human Relationships in a Diverse Society. "I taught my minority students in my English and drama classes in high school for 20 years. But in this course, I found out a lot about other cultures that I didn't know then. One of the most important lessons that I'm learning is to perceive, not to judge." Older adults can add to the educational resources of university by bringing with them a lot of valuable experience. Their presence on campus helps break some long beliefs about aging. Young students may have fears of growing older. But that kind of fear can be reduced as they see that older people can be active, healthy, and continue to contribute to society. The younger students can begin to see aging as a natural part of living.

Now enters a surprising character. The person who popularized the apple story, was none other than the well-known French writer and philosopher Voltaire. Due to his outspoken views, in 1726 he was forcibly exiled to England where he spent the next three years. Newton died in 1727 so Voltaire would have been familiar with the many discoveries made by him. Voltaire was also acquainted with Newton's niece, Catherine Barton. Newton was a bachelor and she had a greed to manage his London home; therefore she would have been familiar with the apple story, which she related to Voltaire.
Voltaire sided with Newton in Newton's bitter fights with Leibnitz. In Candide, Voltaire ridiculed Leibnitz. The character Dr.Pangloss, who went about insisting that we live in the "best of all possible worlds", was Voltaire's version of Leibnitz.
We might chalk Vohaire's apple story up to "partisan license". But it' you've ever done anything creative, you'll recognize the plausibility of the apple story. You'll remember your own moment when some small and commonplace event revealed a great troth to you. That's the way creativity works.
Which of the following is true about Newton's Principia？
A．Newton was motivated to write the Principia after he saw the apple fell.
B．The Law of Universal Gravitation was originally included in the Principia.
C．Newton began to form. the idea of the Principia when he was a college student.
D．The Law of Universal Gravitation was formulated long before the Principia.
