In 1883, a creative engineer (name)John Roebling wanted to build a bridge. It would connect New York with the Long Island.
However, bridge building experts thought that it was (possible). They told Roebling (forget)the idea. But Roebling believed deep in his heart that it could (do).He discussed with his son Washington, an engineer, about the bridge. He managed to let Washington believe the bridge could be built.
discussing how the bridge could be accomplished(完成), they began to build their dream bridge with great excitement. The project started well, but
(late)a great accident took the life of John Roebling. Washington
(injure)and he was not able to talk or even move. However, Washington didn't give up. He came up with a good idea to go for his
dream. All he could do was move one finger and he decided to make the
(good) use of it. He tapped it on his wife's arm to tell other engineers what to do. For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife's arm, until the bridge was finally completed.
This is one of the best examples of something that overcome terrible difficulties and achieve an impossible goal.
