    Wu Mengchao, the "Father of Chinese Hepatobiliary Surgery(肝胆外科)", had been saving people's lives for nearly eighty years. He performed more than 16,000 operations (手术)during his life. Holding the surgeon's knife for such a long time hurt his fingers. Wu once said, "It would my greatest happiness if I could work at the operating table until my dying day."

    In 1969, in order to solve the problem of treating malaria(疟疾), Tu Youyou took on the job as head of a research team. She and her teammates performed different kinds of experiments. However, the results were disappointing. Instead of giving up, they kept trying. Finally, in 1972, they made it! In 2015, at the age of 85, she received Nobel Prize.

    Thomas Edison, the inventor of the light bulb (灯泡)believed that every failure was a step towards success. He once said, "If I find 10,000 ways that won't work, I haven't failed. I am not disappointed, because every wrong try is another step forward."

    Sometimes, their success was a surprise, even to themselves. The famous scientist Alexander Fleming once said, "In fact, I didn't plan to revolutionize(变革)all medicine by discovering the world's first antibiotic(抗生素). But I guess that was exactly what I did.

    One thing all these people have in common is sticking to their goals.
