Elon Musk Who's he
He's the guy who founded a private space company, and also some other companies. The companies he founds are all really high-tech and futuristic. He's made millions of dollars.
Oh, he must be a really smart guy, and so rich right now!
Yes, I'd say he's as famous as Bill Gates or Jack Ma now. They 're really smart, too. Just
think of all that money they must make!

Dr Wang: Wang Lin: Well, you two, it's great that they ve been able to become so successful and make all that money, but money isn't everything Just look at people like Alexander Fleming, who discovered penicillin, and Florence Nightingale, the founder of modem nursing, and my own personal hero, Dr Zhong Nanshan, who managed the SARS outbreak--they never made millions of dollars, but their contributions to health care have saved countless lives.
Yes, Dad, sorry. We know they are great examples to everyone. But, you successful people like Bill Gates and Jack Ma have

positive contributions to socicty. It's not just due to how much money they make. Elon
Musk, for example, is trying to help the future of humankind, and Bill Gates has

Hello, everyone! The greatest person I know of is Dr. Zhong Nanshan, who managed the SARS outbreaks in China in 2003. Now it's he who prevented the COVID-19 from quick spread all over the country once again. To me, greatness means sacrifice and devotion. Dr Zhong Nanshan took risks entering the isolated area to cure the patients, summarizing the infected but recovered cases and sharing his successful experience with other home and abroad doctors. He serves as a good role model and makes great contributions to society. That's all. Thank you!
