saying,  "One of your friends has left you something important in my house. Your neighbor." Since the light was on, I went to knock at the door. Entering the house, I found a young lady of eighteen or so absorbed in her study. I learnt from her mother that she failed in the College Entrance Examination last year. Even so, she never gave up and was encouraged to go on studying hard and try again. The bright light was not only a companion to her but also a proof of her diligence.

      A few days later, I met her again. We had a talk for a while and she told me that even if she couldn't succeed ,  she wouldn't give up studying. When she said this, I saw that bright light and began to understand the saying "Where there is a will, there is a way."

    我通常午夜时分才回家。每晚从邻居家经过，都会看见那透过窗户的明亮灯光。

    一个星期二的晚上，我像平时一样回来很晚。开门时看见一张纸条上写着：“你的一位朋友将一些重要的东西放在我家了。你的邻居。”看见灯还亮着，我就去敲门。进到房里，我看见一位十八岁左右的姑娘正在专心致志地学习。从她母亲那儿，我得知她去年高考落榜了。但她并不放弃，仍旧努力学习，准备再试一次。这明亮的灯光不仅是她的伴侣，而且是她勤奋的证明。
