Two old men lived in a room on the third floor of an old people’s home.   1   of the men were badly ill, and they spent 24 hours a   2   in bed in the room.

One of the old men had his bed by the window, and every day, he   3  hours telling his friend what he could see through the window. He told him about the traffic going by, the children playing in the park and the birds flying around．The old man far from the window got a lot of  4  from hearing about the world outside, but after a time, he began to get rather unhappy.   5  nice it would be, he thought, if he had the bed by the window and could see   6   himself.

    One night, the man by the window called his friend, “Quick! Pull the alarm by your bed—I don’t think I can go through the night!”   7   his friend, expecting an empty bed by the window, did nothing—he just closed his  8   and went back to sleep.

The next morning, the nurse found the man dead in his bed by the window.

    The old man was very   9  as they moved him into the empty bed by the window. He sat up, pulled back the curtain（窗帘）, looked out—but   10  , he saw only a wall.

　　It was early morning. Peter Corbett helped Mark Wellman out of his wheelchair and onto the ground. They stood before El Captain, a huge rock almost 1.2 kilometers high. Mark had long dreamed to climb El Captain when he was a child. At the age of twenty—one, he had fallen while climbing a mountain, losing his legs. But he never lost his love for life.

　　Mark knew he couldn’t finish the climb alone, but his friend Peter would be there to lend a helping hand. They thought it would take them seven days to reach the top. Now Peter climbed about 30 meters up and hit a piton(岩钉）into the rock. Tying one end of a 50—meter rope to the piton, he let the other end of the rope fall down. Mark caught the rope and tied it to his belt(腰带). He next readied above his bead and tied a T—bar(丁字铁）to the rope. Mark took a deep breath, pushed the T-bar up almost as far as his arms could reach, and began the first pull-up. High above，Peter let out a cheer, “You’re on your way.”

　　For the first four days the two men progressed upward without accident. But on the fifth day，a very strong wind began to blow, making it hard for Mark to hold on to his rope. But Mark kept on pushing up the T-bar and pulling himself up.

　　It took them one more day than they had expected. But as the two heads appeared, the group of people waiting on the top went wild with joy.

“A friend walks in when the rest of the world walks out.” Sometimes in life, you find a special friend: someone who changes you life just by being part of it; someone who makes you laugh until you can’t stop; someone who convinces( 使相信 ) you that there really is an open door just waiting for you to open it. This is forever friendship.

When you're sad, and the world seems dark and empty, your forever friend lifts you up in spirits and makes that dark and empty world suddenly seem bright and full; Your forever friend gets you through the hard times, the sad times, and the confused times.If you turn and walk away, your forever friend follows; If you lose your way, your forever friend guides you and cheers you on; Your forever friend holds your hand and tells you that everything is going to be ok.

And if you find such a friend, you feel happy because you need not worry. You have a forever friend for life and forever has no end.
