     Elizabeth Blackwell was bom in England in 1821, and moved
to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided
that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for
a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing
many letters asking for admission (录取) to medical schools, she
was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so
determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get
money for the cost of schooling.
     In 1849, after graduation from medical school, she decided
to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科
医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.
     Upon retuming to the United States, she found it difficult to
start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857
Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman
doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and
children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding
her own hospital, she also set up the first medical school for women.
