Question

John, 11 years old, was in bed in hospital. Several days before, while he was playing in a baseball game, he fell and hit his head. The doctors believed that he might never get well.

“He seems to have given up hope. So medicines alone won’t help. Perhaps he needs something else,” said a doctor. “When I visit him, all he ever says is that he would like to meet Babe Ruth.”

1. In America, Babe Ruth was as important a man as the President himself, and he was the most famous baseball player.

The next day John’s father managed（设法完成）to tell Babe Ruth about the story of his son on the phone. Twenty-four hours later, as the boy lay in his hospital room, Babe Ruth walked in.

2.

The great baseball player sat down at John’s beside, and said, “Now, listen, kid, you’ve got to get well. I’ve brought you a new American League baseball, so you must start throwing it.”

For John, this was the beginning of a new life. 3. He was able to live a healthy life—all because of the present of Babe Ruth.
