　　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 revolved around the fishing industry,a volunteer rescue team was needed in cases of emergency. One night the winds raged, the clouds burst and a gale(大風(fēng)) force storm capsized a fishing boat at sea.In trouble, the crew sent out the S.O.S. The captain of the rescue rowboat team sounded the alarm and the villagers assembled in the town square overlooking the bay. While the team launched their rowboat and fought their way through the wild waves, the villagers waited restlessly on the beach, holding lanterns to light the way back.
