艾博特先生是名醫(yī)生,在過去,他對(duì)生活是一種消極的態(tài)度。據(jù)說他是模仿他父親的行為模式。他喜歡穿膝蓋上帶補(bǔ)丁的牛仔褲。他喜愛的消遣就是輕拍他小貓柔軟的爪子。一天,他的一個(gè)病人死于癌癥,這喚醒了艾博特先生。他為死者讀了圣經(jīng)里的一段。從那天起,艾博特先生有著熱情發(fā)明一種新藥。他對(duì)此有很大的耐性。他知道通往成功的惟一護(hù)照是辛苦工作。他完成工作的那天,為他工作的工人們要求立刻付款。他全部付清了他所欠的錢。在給清工資遣散工人后,他把他發(fā)明的圖案貼在墻上。艾博特先生就這項(xiàng)發(fā)明獲得了一項(xiàng)專利。他的贊助人對(duì)此非常感興趣。他騎自行車來拜訪艾博特先生。贊助人經(jīng)過一條鋪著鵝卵石的小路。人行道上不準(zhǔn)停車,因此他不得不把自行車放在走廊里。艾博特得天獨(dú)厚生一人在家。他的妻子趕牛群到牧場去放牧了,贊助人是個(gè)非常有耐心的人。他建議艾博特先生把專利賣給他。艾博特先生在做重大決定之前暫停了一會(huì)兒。最終,他決定把發(fā)明捐贈(zèng)給社會(huì)。他那樣做是為了回報(bào)社會(huì)。他的愛國行為讓許多人欽佩。
