It was getting dark. Some children and two Canadian women were still   1  on the ice near a big hotel. They were having a good time.

Suddenly the ice   2 . One of the boys fell into the water. The children shouted，“Help! Help!”They didn’t know   3  to do. The two Canadian women heard   4  and skated over to get the boy out of the water.

The ice was   5. The two Canadians fell into the water, too. But they tried their best to

 6  the little boy. They knew they must be  7 . If they didn’t push him up onto the ice, he would soon die.

Many people ran over to   8  them. Some of them had ropes and poles. A young man jumped into the water to save the   9  people.

The boy and the two Canadian women were out of water at last. One of the women didn’t feel well. She was sent to the   10  at once. But she felt very happy because the boy was saved.

Many years ago, when I was working as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Lisa. The poor little girl had a very serious disease and was dying. The doctor had done his best but no medicine really worked. The only chance to save her seemed to be a blood transfusion(输血) from her five-year-old brother. The little boy had the same disease before and had developed the antibodies(抗体) to fight the illness.

    The doctor talked to the little boy about what they planned to do, and asked him if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate(迟疑) for a moment. He took a deep breath and said, “Yes, I’ll do it if it can save Lisa.”

As the transfusion was going on, the little boy lay quietly in bed next to his sister. He looked at her and smiled all the time. When everything was done and the colour returned to his sister’s face, his smile disappeared and he looked a little afraid. He looked up at the doctor and asked, “ Will I start to die now?”

He was too young to understand the doctor. He thought he would have to give all his blood to his sister, but he agreed.
