  Having taken a room at the hotel at which he had been instructed to stay, Smallwood went out; it was a lovely day, early in August, and the sun shone in an unclouded sky.He had not been to Lucerne since he was a boy, but remembered a covered bridge, though not clearly, a great stone lion and a church in which he had sat, bored yet impressed while they played an organ(风琴);and now wandering along a shady quay(码头)he tried not so much to find his way about a half forgotten scene as to reform in his mind some memories of the shy and eager boy, so impatient for life, who so long ago had wandered there.But it seemed to him that the most lively of his memories was not of himself, but the crowd; he seemed to remember the sun and the heat and the people; the train was crowded and so was the hotel, the lake steamers were packed and on the quays and in the streets you found your way among the holiday-makers.They were fat and old and ugly and strange.

  Now, in wartime, Lucerne was as deserted as it must have been before the world discovered that Switzerland was the playground of Europe.Most of the hotels were closed, the streets were empty, the boats for hire rocked idly at the water's edge and there was none to take them, and in the avenue by the lake the only persons to be seen were serious Swiss taking their dogs for their daily walk.Smallwood felt happy and sitting down on a bench that faced the water, surrendered(听任)himself to the sensation.The blue water, snowy mountains, and their beauty hit you in the face.So long, at all events(无论如何)as the fine weather lasted he was prepared to enjoy himself.He didn't see why he should not at least try to combine pleasure to himself with advantage to his country.

  When Matthew Jones decided to donate a kidney(肾)to a stranger, the Michigan father of five had no idea he'd be starting a life-saving, "pay-it-forward" chain.

  His kidney donation to a Phoenix woman in 2007 set off a long-running organ donation that resulted in 10 sick people getting new kidneys over a year.It hasn't ended yet.

  Jones, who lives in Petoskey, Michigan, heard a news report about a man giving a kidney to a stranger and thought he'd like to do that, too.He worked with a transplant center in Buffalo, NY, but no match worked out.

  He ultimately(最后)was referred to Dr Michael Rees, a transplant surgeon at University of Toledo Nedical Center, who was trying to design an advanced living-donor pairing system.

  It paired the 30-year-old Jones with Barb Bunnell, a 53-year-old Arizona woman whose husband wanted to donate a kidney to her but was incompatible

  Just after the July 18, 2007 surgery, Jones recalls feeling "like a truck had run over me".But he was well enough to go to a Diamondbacks baseball game five days later.

  Bunnell's grateful husband, Ron, then became what Rees believes is the world's first "bridge" donor, meaning he donated his kidney later.

  Ron Bunnell was on a plane a week later to give his kidney to a 32-year-old Toledo woman, Angie Heckman.She's a waitress at a bar owned by her mother, Laurie Sarvo.Sarvo then gave a kidney to a woman in Columbus, Ohio, whose daughter then became the fourth donor in the chain.

  On it ran through patient-donor pairs including two more married couples, a daughter and father, and two friends.The last operation was done last March, with a 60-year-old woman in Toledo getting a kidney from a Baltimore donor.That recipient's daughter wants to donate a kidney, but a match hasn't worked out yet.

  "There's a very good possibility that when I'm dead and gone, this chain will still be going on," Jone said.

(1)
