There was a pilot and four people in a small plane.Suddenly there was something wrong with the plane when it was flying in the air.The smoke was everywhere in the plane.The pilot told the people there were only four parachutes（降落傘）.They all became worried and started to make excuses.
    "I must go and mend the machine." said the pilot，taking one of the parachutes.There was nothing he could do，so he just jumped out.The first person stood up. "I'm a doctor，" he said."I help people live longer and I save lives" He also took a parachute and jumped out，The next person said，"I must have a parachute.I am a very clever person，and I have to attend an important sports game.I know I am going to win the game because I am going to be the cleverest person there." He picked up a pack and jumped out.Two men were left，an old businessman and a young mountain climber.By this time the plane was going down fast.The businessman said，"Young man，I am old，but you're still jye.aing.You take the last parachute." the young mountain climber smiled， "Don't worry，" he said，"we can both jump to safety because there are still two parachutes.Just now the clever person jumped out with my backpack."
