It took me a whole day to prepare myself. Even so, my voice was still 38 when the interview began. “Tell me about yourself in one minute.

When something isn’t done in time, I will get 49 and try to finish it as soon as possible.” When I finished these words, I realized that I had lost this 50 .

In the middle of the desert, I met a young man standing by the roadside. He had his thumb out, wishing for a hitchhiking （搭便車） . I drove right by him. There was a time in the country when you’d be called a jerk if you passed by somebody in need. Now you’re a fool for helping. “I don’t want to get involved.” has bee a national motto. Several days later I was still thinking about the hitchhiker. I didn’t even lift my foot off the accelerator（油門(mén)踏板） for him.

I’m grateful to all the people I met for their rides, food, shelter and gifts. My faith in ordinary people was renewed. It turns out that you can still depend on the k
