You were there, walking in the street near the station of Pittsburgh, when the SUV hit my dad's bike.You had the courage to take his phone and call an ambulance(救护车), getting immediate help.My dad lost his leg, but he is up and about now.It could have been so much worse.I know that he wants to thank you, and so do I!
My dad doesn't remember your face, but he knows what you did.I can never explain how important your call for help was.Soon my dad will be getting an artificial leg(假肢).Every day he wakes up knowing life will never be the same, but you need to look at the bright side.He does still have his life.He does still have his family, and his health.
Two weeks before the accident, my baby sister was born.When he held her, I could see a special look in his eyes.At that moment, I knew he loved his family, and his life.
Dick's parents work in China.They couldn't leave the boy in Canada by himself and brought the boy to Beijing four years ago.The boy began to study in a school last year and made friends with some Chinese children.He's friendly to them and they like him.They often talk in Chinese and he often teaches his friends some English.
One Sunday Dick and his friends went to a forest to catch some birds.It was fine that day and they saw a lot of flowers there.The children enjoyed themselves.Suddenly(突然)Dick saw a bird in a tree.He wanted to tell his friends about it, but he was afraid it could hear him.He thought for a while and called out in English,“Look!There's a bird in that short tree!”
The bird heard him and flew away.
“How clever your bird is!”said the boy.“It knows some English, too!”
