“Jack worked as a laborer on the new railroad. Every morning at dawn, he would pick up his heavy hammer and spend the day driving spikes into the wood. His hands were calloused and his back often ached, but he was proud to be part of building something that would connect people across the vast country. He was just one laborer, but he knew his work mattered.” (杰克在新建的铁路上当工人。每天清晨，他都会拿起沉重的锤子，整天都在把道钉钉进木头里。他的手长满了茧子，背经常疼，但他很自豪能参与建设这种连接辽阔国土上人们的东西。他只是一个普通的劳动者，但他知道自己的工作很有意义。)
