Haire, 19, with five friends, got into his car at around 10 p.m., and went to a party. They’d driven on the streets often, they couldn’t find the house, and Haire’s iPhone GPS wasn’t working.
He had to drive into a parking place by a small lake to see his car’s GPS could help. Before Haire could stop the car, his friend Sawin, 19, looked up from the backseat and saw a pair of lights from the water about fifty yards away. “There is a car in the water!” he cried.
In the darkness, the boys could hardly see through the windows. “We thought we had to get this man out of there now, or he was going to die,” says Haire.
He and Sawin jumped into the cold water and hard to the sinking car. Inside, Miguel Hernandez was holding the steering wheel and looking up in fear.
Haire the car first and helped Hernandez roll down the window, and he opened Hernandez’s seat belt. Then water began into the car, causing it to go down to the bottom of the 15-foot-deep lake.

Xi was a sports lover and he used to playing football very much. And now he is also one of the football fans in China. He thinks we should not only care about the national team(国家队), but also pay much more to the training of the young players. So he visited Europe(欧洲) this year, he especially watched China-Germany(德国) youth football match. Although the team lost the game in the end, he still encouraged the young players to train harder and give up. He told them that they would be the keys to China’s football.
Our life is just China’s football. As Xi once said in Shanghai, “China’s football dream looks far away but we cannot stop. You might make your dreams one day only if you keep dreaming.” So there is excuse for us to give up our dreams, and we must try our to realize them.

Maybe you have seen this in schools: Some students study nearly all the time but they just pass their exams, while some others may spend much l time on their books but do much better in exams. How could this happen? People used to think that hard work is the only way to success. But now they understand that smart work can make them successful, too.
Hard workers don’t m working for long hours, while smart workers always think of several different answers to these questions. “Why should I suffer this?” “Isn’t there a better way to do this?” Thanks to these people, we can use computers instead of the abacus now. P
in every field is the direct result of “try to find a better way” by smart workers. There was a large soap factory in Japan. Once it received an unusual letter from someone who c
that there was no soap in the soapbox he bought.
How could empty soapbox go out of the factory? The engineers checked the producing and packing. The producing was fine, but in about one in ten thousand cases, the packing machines let an empty soapbox go. There was no need to spend a lot of money repairing the machine for such a small problem. The engineer soon worked out a s . He put a large X-ray (X射线) machine and two large computers to find out the empty soapbox. A
teaching the workers how to use it, he sat down in his seat, exhausted.
“Sir, we could have solved the problems in a much simpler and cheaper way.” a worker said.
“Really? How?” “We can put a huge fan near the packing machine. The wind coming from the fan will blow away the empty boxes and leave the other o with soap. There would be no need for an X-ray machine, two computers, and operating by workers.”
See, this is smart work. In order to succeed, we should not only learn from the engineers’ hard work, but also think smart like the workers.
