But in the rough sea,Tom remained calm. His only motive was to navigate the ship safely. Finally,when the ship reached its destination,he gave his life to save others.

正如儒家所言,“言必信,行必果。” 汤姆是一位领航员,他承诺与船只共存亡。这是他生命中的一段经历。当船上的马达启动时,他上了船,生起了火,冒出一股轻烟。当船出海时,他们遇到了风暴。但在波涛汹涌的大海中,汤姆保持镇静。他唯一的目的就是安全地为这艘船驾驶导航。最后,当船到达目的地时,他为了救别人而献出了生命。我是去航海的合适人选。我必须像汤姆一样对我的船只和船员忠诚。

Tom keeps in mind the famous saying “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.” So he iskeen to explore the mysteries of the universe. Once there was virtual training in space, Tom boarded a vehicle called Jade Rabbit in the hope of exploring the final frontier. On the spacecraft there was a microwave, a smartphone, a pillow, an oxygen bottle, some soap, towels, tissues and other facilities to provide for him. After the spacecraft entered its orbit, the monitor signaled regularly. When he was finishing the ongoing mission, he began to float in the capsule for lack of sufficient training, and his muscles ached too. Fortunately, he was attached tightly to the spacecraft. Otherwise, he would float beyond the spaceship. But he felt disappointed when he found his limitedre sources were running out. He wanted to figure out if the resources could be recycled. Through analysis,Tom argued that the current fatal error was lack of high-end facilities, which resulted in the failure of space training. As a result, he had to signal for help.
汤姆牢记那句名言“对一个人来说那是一小步, 对人类来说却是一大 步”。于是他热衷于探索宇宙的奥秘。曾经有一次在太空进行虚拟训练, 汤姆登上了一辆名叫玉兔的月球车, 希望能探索最后的边界。航天器上有一台微波炉、一部智能手机、一个枕头、一只氧气瓶、一些肥皂、毛巾、纸巾和其他为他提供的设施。宇宙飞船进入轨道后, 监视器定期发出信号。当他就要完成正在进行的任务时, 由于缺乏足够的训练, 他开始在太空舱里漂浮, 他的肌肉也开始疼痛。幸运的是, 他被紧紧地绑在飞船上, 否则, 他将漂浮在飞船之外。但当他发现自己有限的 资源即将耗尽时, 他感到很失望。他想弄清楚这些资源是否可以循环利用。通过分析, 汤姆认为目前致命的错误是缺乏高端设施, 这导致太空训练失败。结果, 他不得不发信号求救。
