How Do We Know If Someone Is Really Important?
Several years ago, a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a rich banker（银行家）, another owned one of the largest companies in the world, and the third had many buildings in the center of New York.
The reporter was talking to them about being important.
“How do we know if someone is really important?” the reporter asked the banker.
He thought for a few moments and then said,“I think anyone who is invited to the White House to meet the President of the United States is really important.”
The reporter turned to the owner of the very large company.“Do you agree with that?”she asked.
The owner of the very large company shook her head.“No,”she said,“I don’t. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You’d only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president of another great power（强国），and the President of the United States said he was too busy to answer it.”
The reporter turned to the person who owned many buildings.“Do you agree with that?”
“No, I don’t.”he said.“I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.”
“Then what would make the visitor important?”the reporter asked.
“Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the Prsident and the phone rang, and the President picked it up, listened and then said, It’s for you.’ That’s really important.”
