Martin Lynch，an American businessman，had been going on vacation to a small Mexican fishing village for a number of years. One morning while going for a walk along the beach，he saw his friend Pablo Perez，a local fisherman. Martin watched Pablo unload his boat and pack the fish in a box.

Martin noticed Pablo was smiling and looked very happy. He could also see several large fish in the boat. Martin greeted Pablo and asked how long it took to catch the fish. “Just a few hours,” replied Pablo. Martin asked，“ Why didn’t you stay longer and catch more fish?” “I have enough for my family，” Pablo said. “And what do you do with the rest of your (lay?” asked Martin. “I take a nap,play with my children,spend time with    my wife, and go    into the village to see my    friends

and    play cards, I have a full and    busy life.，     Martin

exp] ainee I that if Pablo worked longer hours and caught more fish, he could make more money. With the extra money, Pablo could buy more boats and catch more fish. By selling the fish, Pablo could open his own factory and sell direct to supermarkets.

“Then what?”    asked Pablo.    “Well you    would

probably have to move to Mexico City to run the business. Finally, you would be able to sell your business and make millions of dollars，” replied Martin. “ How long will that take?” asked Pablo.

Martin thought    for a while    and said it    would

probably take at least 15 years.

When you cut your skin，you bleed (流血）• If a person loses a lot of blood，he will become ill and may die. Blood is very important. People have always known that. At one time, some people even drank blood to make them strong!

When doctors understand how blood goes around inside the body, they try ways of giving blood to people who need it. They take blood from the healthy people and give it to people who need it. This is called “ blood transfusion ”. The blood goes from the arm of the healthy person into the arm of the sick person.

But there are two problems. First, it does not always work. Sometimes people die when they have blood transfusion. Later, doctors find that we do not all have the same kind of blood. There are four groups—0, A, B and AB. We all have blood of one of these groups. They also find that they can give any kind of blood to people of group AB. But they find that they must give A-group blood to A-group people and B-group blood to B-group people. I have O-group blood and the doctor told me that I could give blood to anyone else safely.

There is another problem. To give blood of the right kind, doctors have to find a person of the right blood group. Often they can not find a person in time. If they have a way to keep the blood until someone needs it, they can always have the right kind of blood. At first they find they can keep it in bottles for fifteen to twenty days. They do this by making it very cold. Then they find how to keep it longer. In the end they find a way of keeping blood for a very long time.

We call a place where we keep money a “bank”. We call a place where we keep blood a “blood bank”. One day，when you grow up，you may decide to give blood to a “ blood bank ”. In this way you may stop someone from dying. Or perhaps one day you may become ill. You may need blood. The “blood bank” will give it to you.

My father was an ill-humored man. I knew he loved me and his love was deep. He just didn’t know how to  1 it.

decided to    3    him for a dance.

“Dad,you know I’ve never 4   with you before.

I begged you but you 5  wanted to. How about right now?”

I waited for the 6  refusal. But instead, he considered thoughtfully and then said, “ Let’s hit the floor and I’ll 7  you just what kind of moves an old guy like me can still make. ’ 

My father took me in his arms and I felt overcome by emotion.

As we danced I looked up at my father carefully but he 8 my eyes.

“ Dad, ” I finally 9    , tears in my eyes, “ Why is

it so hard for you to look at me?” At last his eyes dropped to my face. “    10 I love you so much. ’  he

whispered back. I was struck dumb by his —11 . It

wasn’t what I had thought. But it was of course exactly what I needed to 12 I had always known that he loved me.

He stumbled (結(jié)結(jié)巴已 地說(shuō))over the next few words ： “ I’m sorry that I’m not open. It’s 14  for me, but just remember how much I love you. ’’

When the dance ended I 15  myself to the ladies room and during my absence everything changed. When I came back, Dad sat in his chair with his body leaning forward, very pale. Everything was really too late. He was gone.

That night all I saw was his leaning body and pale face. But it’s a completely different scene that I remember now. I remember him saying “I love you” and my saying it back. The three words lives on forever long after we are gone.
