Once a man's ship broke(打破) into pieces(碎片) on a small, lonely island(孤岛). There was no one living on this island, so he hoped that someone could come to save him. Every day he watched the sea, but no ships ever appeared(出现). The man was very sad(难过的). He thought he should do something to save himself. He built a little house out of wood(木头). But one day, after looking for food, he arrived home to find his little house on fire. The smoke rose(升起) to the sky. And everything was lost. He was full of sadness and anger(愤怒). "God, how could you do this to me?" he cried. Early the next day, however, the sound of a ship woke(唤醒) him up. The ship was coming to the island. It came to save him. "How did you know I was here?" the man asked those people. "We saw your smoke signal(信号)," they answered. It is easy to get discouraged when things are going badly. But we shouldn't lose heart(失去信心), because hope is at work in our lives. Remember, next time your little house is burning(烧毁) to the ground, it just may bring you better luck.
