保罗•尼尔•阿代尔Red Adair——著名的消防员,行走于全世界,每每出现在如地狱一般炎热的火场,去扑灭熊熊燃烧的大火。他的公司在伊拉克军队被击退时,曾奉召扑灭科威特的油田大火,他对这个重要的真理可是一点也不陌生。他是这样说的:人生不是把事情做好,而是努力把事情做好。

Hints:
Red AdairRed Adair was a leader in a specialized and extremely dangerous profession. Putting out oil well fires can be difficult. This is because oil well fires are extinguished, or put out, at the wellhead just above ground. Normally, explosives are used to stop the fire from burning. The explosion robs the fire of oxygen. But, once the fire is out, the well still needs to be covered, or capped, to stop the flow of oil. This is the most dangerous part of the process. Any new heat or fire could cause the leaking well and the surrounding area to explode.
