Mario在去母亲家的路上被困在了沙漠，没有食物，只有一条狗作伴。就在Mario绝望地以为自己即将离开这个世界时，他得到了陌生人的帮助。

Mario drove from his home to his mother’s house with his 14-year-old dog, Zoe. On the way, Mario struck some rocks and the car got stuck, so he and Zoe got out to try to find help nearby. Mario had planned to celebrate his 54th birthday with his mother. Instead, he spent the next few days in the desert. The sun was hot and temperatures reached 40℃ every day.

马里奥带着他14岁的狗佐伊从家里开车去了他母亲的家。在路上，马里奥撞上了一些石头，车卡住了，所以他和佐伊下车试图在附近寻求帮助。马里奥曾计划和母亲一起庆祝他的54岁生日。相反，他在沙漠里度过了接下来的几天。太阳很热，每天温度达到40 ℃。

Mario says he was “at the verge(濒于) of death,” until he could find another watering hole to keep them going for a few more hours. On the sixth day, he had resigned(只好接受) himself to dying out there in the desert.

马里奥说他 “濒临死亡”，直到他能找到另一个水坑让他们再坚持几个小时。第六天，他已经屈服于在沙漠中死去。

“I felt like it was my last day,” Mario said. “I felt like it was my dog’s last day, too. We just stayed under a tree and I was making an SOS sign with fire.” Mario had only finished half of the S when he spotted a white car.

“我觉得这是我的最后一天，” 马里奥说。“我觉得这也是我的狗的最后一天。我们就呆在树下，我正在用火做紧急求救信号。”马里奥发现一辆白色汽车时，只完成了一半。

The white car belonged to Frank Martinez. When Frank first saw Mario, he could tell the man wasn’t doing well. Frank gave them something to eat and drink and brought them to a hotel so they could rest. The next day, Frank returned to check on him and then helped him get his car from the desert. Frank even offered to fix the car for him!

这辆白色汽车属于弗兰克·马丁内斯。当弗兰克第一次见到马里奥时，他可以看出这个人做得不好。弗兰克给了他们一些吃的和喝的东西，并把他们带到旅馆，这样他们就可以休息了。第二天，弗兰克回来检查他，然后帮他从沙漠里取车。弗兰克甚至主动提出帮他修车!
