Default The Seven Wonders of the World

The Seven Wonders of the World

A group of students studied the "Seven Wonders of the Modern World." At the end of that section, the students were asked to list what they considered to be the Seven:

1. Suez Canal

2. Dneproges Dam on the Dnepr River (USSR)

3. Atomic Energy Research Establishment, Harwell, England

4. Alaska (ALCAN) Highway

5. Golden Gate Bridge

6. Eiffel Tower

7. Empire State Building

While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one student, a quiet girl, hadn't turned in her paper yet. She asked the girl if she was having trouble with her list.

The girl replied, "Yes, a little. I couldn't quite make up my mind because there were so many!"

The teacher said, "Well, tell us what you have, and maybe we can help."

The girl hesitated, then read, "I think the 'Seven Wonders of the World' are:

1. To touch

2. To taste

3. To see

4. To hear.”

She hesitated a little, "and then,

5. To run

6. To laugh

7. To love."

…..from ”Christian Voices”
