His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer. One day, while trying to eke（补充） out a living for his family, he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby bog (沼泽地). He dropped his tools and ran to the bog. There, mired（陷于泥坑）to his waist in black muck（淤泥） was a terrified boy, screaming and struggling to free himself. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could have been a slow and terrifying death.
The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up to the Scotsmans sparse(稀疏的) surroundings. An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Farmer Fleming had saved.
I want to repay you, said the nobleman. You saved my sons life.
No, the Scottish farmer replied, waving off the offer. At that moment, the farmers own son came to the door of the family hovel（茅舍）.
Is that your son? the nobleman asked. Yes, the farmer replied proudly.
Ill make you a deal. Let me take him and give him a good education. If the lad is anything like his father, hell grow to a man you can be proud of.
And that he did. In time, Farmer Flemings son graduated from St. Marys Hospital Medical School in London, and went on to become known throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of Penicillin.
