Years ago, in a small fishing village in Holland, a young boy taught the world about the rewards of unselfish service.
Because the entire village lived on fishing, a volunteer rescue team was needed in case of emergency. One night, the winds   36  , the clouds burst and a strong storm overturned a fishing boat at sea. The crew in trouble   37  the SOS. The captain of the rescue rowboat team   38  the alarm and the villagers   39  in the town square overlooking the sea. When the team started their rowboat fought their way through the wild waves, the villagers waited   40  on the beach, holding lamps to   41  the way back.
An hour later, the rescue boat reappeared through the fog and the   42  villagers ran to greet them. Falling   43  on the sand, the volunteers reported that the rescue boat could not hold any more   44   and they had to leave one man behind. Even one more passenger would have surely   45 the rescue boat and all would have been lost.
   46  , the captain called for another volunteer team to   47  the survivor. Sixteen-year-old Hans stepped forward. His mother grabbed his arm, crying, "please don't go. Your father   48 in a shipwreck  (船只失事) 10 years ago and your elder brother, Paul, has been lost　　49  for three weeks. Hans, you are all I have left."
Hans replied, "Mother, I have to go.    50  everyone said I can't go, let someone else do it? Mother, this time I have to do my duty. When the call for service   51 , we all need to take our turn and do our part. Hans kissed his mother, joined the team and   52  into the night. "
Another hour passed, which seemed to Hans' mother like a century.    53   the rescue boat dashed through the fog with Hans standing up in the bow.    54 his hands, the captain called, "did you find the lost man?"    55  able to control himself, Hans excitedly cried back, "Yes, we found him. Tell my mother it's my elder brother, Paul!"
