One night many years ago when I was on the bridge of a ship that passed one of our large cities on a quiet night,I saw its lights reflected in the sky and heard the rumblings of the city's noises.As I looked to my other side,I could see nothing but open space of darkness and endless water.I realized how small I was and that my own problems of life did not seem great.
   I have spent twenty-five years on boats.Now I am a docking pilot.My job is to bring in the large luxury liners and stay with them until they are safely anchored in their berths.Sometimes this requires two tugs(拖船),sometimes many more,depending on the tide,the weather,and the draft of the vessel.
   Most of you no doubt have seen these tugs pushing and pulling at the big liners.What they are doing doesn't seem to make much sense at first,but presently the big boat is alongside her landing stage,her ropes made fast,and the job is done.
   These tugs,whether one or ten,move about in accord with whistle signals I send them from the bridge of the big liner.These signals make up a language that is just as dependable as the spoken word;or even more so,because our docking signals are rarely misunderstood.The captain of each tug does his work according to the signals he receives.He never asks questions.He takes everything on faith,and it always works out.
   I fell very important the first time I ever docked a big liner,thinking that I was in control of a great ship worth millions of dollars and the owners were depending on me to bring her safely to her berth.After I had docked several of the large liners,I realized I was not important,but simply the quarterback who called the signals.
   Working around tugboats has had its effect on what I believe.The great transatlantic liners depend on the help of the little tugs to bring them safely to port,and it is with one's success.

  • 2.    In my early 30s,I struggled to find a dream job.One of my friends reminded me that I'd always loved beauty,and suggested I apply for a licence,which would give me the freedom to set up my own business.
        However,the only problem was that tuition fees were $6,000,which was out of my budget.I knew that my salary wouldn't cover all the fees,even if I worked extra hours every day.I'd seen others set up crowd funding papers to help them achieve their goals.I thought I'd do the same.Then,on a Friday night,I received a large amount of money in my bank account,which made me really surprised.There had been some mistakes.I assumed it was an illegal trick.
        It turned out to be a donation.The name on it is one I instantly recognized:Chrissy Teigen,my favorite TV host.She had left a note: "I've seen that this has been your dream for such a long time.I'm so happy to lend you a hand." I called my mom immediately.I was crying and not making much sense.I just managed to say that Chrissy Telgen had made my dream come true.
        The amount might have been a drop in the ocean for her,but it was life-changing for me.Lots of other people donated after her.Soon I paid all the fees for the course.I couldn't have been happier.I've now set up my own business,and I always think about Chrissy's generosity.I did thank her,and I still follow each other on Twitter.Hopefully,I will be able to give her a beauty treatment someday.
    (1)Why couldn't the author set up her own business? (no more than 10 words)
