—————————
Every year BBC makes a list of 100 special women. Some of them are leaders, some are people with great ideas, some have started groups to help others, and some are everyday heroes. This year, there are two Japanese women on the list. Takamizawa Setsuko is 90 years old, but she has started learning English so that she can help tourists who will come to the Tokyo Olympics. That’s amazing at her age! Okoda Yuki is also on the list. She is only 23 years old, but she has already discovered a new star. Her discovery may help other physicists understand how our solar system began.
