anywayMiraculously he managed to reach his friend, hoisted（扯起）him onto his shoulder, and brought him back to their companys trenchAs the two of them tumbled in together to the bottom of the trench, the officer checked the wounded soldier, then looked kindly at his friend“I told you it wouldnt be worth it,”he said“Your friend is dead, and you are mortally wounded”“It was worth it, though, sir,”the soldier said“How do you meanworth it?”responded the lieutenant“Your friend is dead!”“Yes sir,”the private answered“But it was worth it because when I got to him, he was still alive, and I had the satisfaction of hearing him say,Jim, I knew youd come”Many a time in life, whether a thing is worth doing or not really depends on how you look at itTake up all your courage and do something your
