When I was a sixth grader, kids were separating into groups, but I wasn't sure where I belonged．
Our teacher gave us a task called "secret friends" for the coming week．We were supposed to do nice things   1  our friends without letting them know who was doing it．We could leave   2  notes or cards either on their desks or in their backpacks．Before doing the task, with our eyes closed, from a basket, we   3  a name of a classmate who we were to secretly befriend over the next five days．
Soon, the task was turned into a competition of giving   4  instead of notes．Everyone was getting cool presents except me．My friend followed the teacher's   5  without a fault．I received nothing but handmade cards with nice words about me．
On the last morning, I finally got a package．When I   6  it, the girls around all   7 ．It was perfumed powder, an "old lady" gift．My face went red．
I tried to forget about the   8  gift, but when the same girls   9  it again during the break in the bathroom, I joined in, "How stupid! My grandmother wouldn't   10  want it．" The girls laughed at my   11  and filed out of the bathroom．Washing my hands, I let the water run through my fingers 12    I thought about my words．It wasn't   13  like me to say things like that．
"I'm your secret friend．" It was Rochelle．" I' m sorry about the gift," she whispered to me, tears   14   down her face．
From a poor family, she was a   15  at school for those with rich parents．Yet she just took all the   16  and the horrible treatment silently．
I was sick to my stomach as my   17  words ran through my mind．She had heard everything．How could I have been so cruel?
Later I learned she had felt bad all week about not being able to leave me any cool present and her mum had given up her only luxury（奢侈品）
And I had   18 everything for her．
I told her that I had only said those things to try to   19  .
"We aren't that different from each other, are we?" She smiled   20 ．Her simple words, spoken from her heart, found their way straight into mine．

My wife passed away a few years ago, and I went through the worst time in my life. I even wanted to kill myself. Just for my kids, I had to continue to live and work as a small town doctor at my medical clinic in Hawaii. My kids had gone to live on the mainland, and I was alone. Then they asked me to have a family trip.
On our trip, we turned on the TV at the motel and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade Center. Seeing it falling down, I said to my kids：“ I'm going to Afghanistan.”And a few weeks later, International Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in provinces where people had no health care. In these field clinics surrounded by frightening shoots or deadly bombs ，we were eventually serving 27,000 patients a month in a very busy schedule.Tired and nervous, I gradually had a sense of achievement, a sense of purpose, and my depression went away.
In the years to follow, I went to Indonesia after the tsunami (海啸), Pakistan after the earthquakes, Sudan after the civil war, and Iraq after more and more bombs. Each time after disasters one after another, hundreds of people were killed, wounded and many more had to flee. We once set up movable clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees,_and it was supposed to hold 13,000 originally. Flu broke out, one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire. Water and food were also serious problems. “Adventure or not？”I often asked myself.
When my wife passed away, I thought my life was gone. But in reality, it was just getting started. At the end of her life, she went unconscious. I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would visit and the exciting adventures we would have.
I thought about the moment many times during my“adventures”. I didn't know how predictive those words would be，but I knew that she was still with me.
