1. The famous American host, Linklater, visited a child one day and asked him: "What do you want to do when you grow up?" The child answered innocently: "Well... I want to be the pilot of the plane!" Klett then asked: "If one day, your plane flies over the Pacific Ocean and all the engines are turned off. What do you do?" The child thought for a moment: "I will tell the person sitting on the plane to tie the seat belt first. Then I hung up my parachute and jumped out." When the audience at the scene laughed and laughed, Linklater continued to look at the child and wanted to see if he was a smart guy. Unexpectedly, then the two lines of the child burst into tears, which made Lin Kleite realize that the child's compassion is far from being able to describe it. So Linklater asked him: Why do you want to do this?” The child’s answer revealed the child’s sincere thought: “I am going to get fuel, I will come back!!!”
