F1世界冠军得主
Lewis Hamilton was born in 1985. When he was six, his father gave him a radio-controlled car and he began to join in competitions, even against adults. From this very young age, Lewis's dream was to become a Formula 1 driver. So his father bought him a go-kart and he started the go-kart racing in 1993 when he was only eight years old. He won a couple of races, and he knew that he had to win more.
One day, when he was 10 years old, Lewis met a man called Ron Dennis. Dennis was the boss of the McLaren Formula 1 team. Lewis asked Dennis for his autograph, saying, "My name is Lewis Hamilton and one day I want to drive your cars." Ron Dennis wrote in his autograph book, "Phone me nine years from now, we'll sort something out." In fact, when Hamilton won his first go-kart championship a few years later, Ron Dennis phoned him, and in 1999 Lewis joined McLaren's "Young Drivers" programme.

Old George selected his food in the supermarket more carefully than NASA chose its astronauts. When he left the cashier, he was happy to think that he had saved 80 cents today.
At the exit, the cold wind made him think of his gloves. He looked for them in his coat and pants but could not find them anywhere. He had bought the black gloves at a good price, for just $ 35, years ago. They were soft and very comfortable. He had taken great care of them. So they were in good condition.
George looked calm on his face but felt mad inside. He went into the store again. He followed the same route he had walked before. Several minutes of searching turned out to be useless. His black gloves were gone. "People have changed, "he said to himself. "Years ago, if somebody picked up something lost, they would give it back.
