After death, John went to see God. God looked at him, feeling very unhappy, “You’ve lived in this world for 60 years. Why haven’t you gotten any result at all?” God asked.
John argued, “My God, I couldn’t become a successful person just because you didn’t give me any chance. If you let that magic apple hit on my head, the man who found the law of gravity should be me.”
God said, “OK, we might as well try again.”
God rocked his hands and the time turned back to a few hundred years ago.
God shook the apple tree for the first time, when a red apple fell and happened to drop on John’s head. John picked up the apple, wiped it and ate it up as soon as possible.
God allowed another bigger apple drop on John’s head and John ate it up once again.
God shook the apple tree for the third time, when a much bigger apple fell on John’s head. John got mad, picked up the apple, threw it out heavily. Then he shouted angrily: “The apple annoyed my sweet dream! What a bad luck!”
The apple flew out and happened to fall on Newton’s head. Newton awoke and picked up the apple. After a long time of thinking, he discovered the law of gravity at last.
The time returned once again now.
God said to John, “John, do you understand it now?”
John asked, “My God, please give me another chance…I will …”
God shook his head and said, “No. The chance that the apple drops on the head of everyone is the same, but each person’s ability to catch the chance is different.” 
小题1:When did John die?
A.At the age of 50.B.At the age of 60.
C.At the age of 70.D.At the age of 80.
