Do you know what some students in Venezuela do in their summer holiday? Some of them will go to watch a swimming contest. Hundreds of players including some students swim across the Orinoco River. It is a test of action, quality (質量) and power. The contest?is held in the Orinoco River and it is one of the longest rivers in South America.

About 900 people signed up for it and 805 took part in it this year. The players had to swim across the muddy (泥濘的) water of the Orinoco.
805 men and women entered the 3.1-kilometre contest, and 520 of them reached the end after fighting the current (水流) of the river. Others were pushed too far by the waves and had to be picked up by boats.
Swimmers said the fast moving waves made the event difficult. “Just getting across is a challenge (挑戰(zhàn)),” said Rene Alvarez, a 41-year-old player who joined in the contest for the fifth time and finished to be the second in his age class.
“I like it because it’s an event that’s never the same. Sometimes the river was gentle and it was not so hard to get across. But this year the Orinoco was very, very strong,” Alvarez said. “Since it depends a lot on the current, there are a lot of strategies (戰(zhàn)略) included.”

As a young man, Al was a skilled (有技能的) artist, with a wife and two fine sons. One night, his older son got a severe (嚴重的) stomachache. Neither Al nor his wife took it very seriously. But the boy died suddenly that night.
The death could have been avoided (避免) if he had only realized the seriousness of the situation, so Al always felt he was guilty (內疚的). To make matters worse, his wife left him a short time later, leaving him alone with his six-year-old younger son. The hurt and pain were more than Al could stand, and he turned to alcohol (酒精) for help.
Al began to lose everything he had — his land, house, etc. Finally Al died alone in a small bar. Hearing of Al’s death, I thought, “What a complete failure!”
I knew Al’s now adult son, Ernie. He was one of the kindest, most caring, most loving men I had ever known. I saw the love between Ernie and his children, thinking that kindness and caring had to come from somewhere.
I had not heard Ernie talked much about his father. One day, I worked up my courage to ask him what on earth his father had done so that he became such a special person. Ernie said quietly, “As a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, ‘Love you, son’.”
Tears came to my eyes as I realized that I had been a fool to judge Al as a failure. He had been a kind loving father and left behind his best love.

77. What did Al’s older son die of suddenly?

78. How did Al stand the hurt and pain?
