A teacher was helping one of her kindergarten students put his boots on. He asked for help and she could see why. Even with her pulling and pushing the boots just didn't want to go on. By the time she d got the second boot on, she'd worked up a sweat. That's when the little boy said, “Mrs. Smith, they're on the wrong feet.”She looked, and sure enough, they were.

　　It wasn't any easier getting them back off and re-put upon the correct feet. That's when the little boy said, “These aren't my boots.”

　　She didn't say anything (Who wants to swear at a 5-year-old boy?) and managed to calm herself down, and together they worked them back off. He said, “they're my brother's. My mom made me wear them.”

　　Mrs. Smith didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But she gathered the courage one more time to put those boots on his feet again. “Now,”she said,“where are you mittens（连指手套）?”

　　“I put them in the toes（靴头）of my boots.”

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(疾病)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 like to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate(迟疑) for a moment. Then 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 color 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.
