27、y to Harvard University. And her amazing story has inspired a movie, “Homeless to Harvard:The Liz Murray Story , shown in late April.Liz Murray , a 22- year- old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination.

35、lly, I stopped going to an office 35 years ago, when all communications were done with a pen, a typewriter, or, if the matter was of world-shaking importance, over the telephone.
