Nearly two decades has passed, I still remember my favourite professor, James Sehwartz. Whenever he smiles ,it’s as if you’d just been told the funniest joke on earth .Almost all his students are his friends, and almost all his students know his life story.

He entered the factory, and immediately felt as if the 33 had closed in around him. The room was dark and hot, the windows covered with dust, and the 34 were packed tightly together, running like trains.

He stood next to his father, frozen with fear, hoping the boss wouldn’t 39 at him , too.

“What will you do?”
