Sometime today－perhaps several times－Dick Winter will think about the 19-year-old who saved his life.
Because of this young man, Winter enjoys things like friendships, colours and laughter every day.
The young man saved Winter’s life by signing an organ donor card(器官捐献卡).
“I can’t say thank you enough,”Winter said yesterday at a news conference (meeting) marking the tenth anniversary of the Multi Organ Transplant program at Toronto General Hospital.
What Winter knows of the 19-year-old who saved his life is only that he died in a car accident and that his family was willing to honour his wishes and donate his organs for transplantation(移植).
His liver(肝脏)went to Winter, who was dying from liver trouble.“I know what a painful thing it must have been for them,”Winter said yesterday.
“They are very, very special people.”
Winter, 63, is fitter now than he was 10 years ago, when he got the transplant. He has five medals from the 1995 World Transplant Games in swimming and hopes to collect some more next year in Japan.
“At one time, we were probably strange people in the eyes of other people. Now it’s expected you should be able to go back and do everything you did before, only better.”
The biggest change for Winter, however, isn’t that he has become a competitive athlete. The biggest change is how deeply he appreciates every little thing about his life now.
“I have no time for arguments,”said Winter.
“You change everything. Material things don’t mean as much. Friendships mean a lot.”
Also at yesterday’s news conference was Dr. Gray Levy, Winter’s doctor.
Levy said he has bitter-sweet feelings when he looks at Winter and hears of his athletic actions.
Levy knows that for every recipient(接受者) like Winter, there are several others who die even though they could be saved because there aren’t enough donated organs.
“Unfortunately, we have five to ten people that will never be given the chance that Mr. Winter was given,”Levy said.
Levy said greater public attention and more resources are needed. He said that in Spain and the United States, hospitals receive $10,000 per donor to cover the costs of the operating room, doctors, nurses and teams to work with the donors’ families.

of friends the world has ever known? Who is he? You may meet him coming down the street. When you get
within ten feet of him, he will begin to wag its tail. If you stop and pat him, he'll jump out of his skin to show
you how much he likes you. And you know this show of love. There is no secret motives (动机): he doesn't
want to sell you any real estate(房产),and he doesn't want to be your husband or wife.
Did you ever stop to think that a dog is the only animal that doesn't have to work for a living? A hen has
to lay eggs; a cow has to give milk; and a canary has to sing. But a dog makes a living by giving you nothing
but love.
When I was five years old, my father bought a little yellow-haired young dog for fifty cents. He was the
light and joy of my childhood. Every afternoon around four thirty, he would sit in the front yard with his
beautiful eyes staring at the road, and as soon as he heard my voice or saw me through the bush, he was off
like a shot, racing breathlessly up the hill to greet me with leaps of joy and barks of cheer.
Tippy was my good companion (同伴) for five years. Then one night-I shall never forget it -he was killed
within ten feet of my head, killed by lightning. Tippy's death was the terrible event of my childhood. You never
read a book on psychology (心理学), Tippy. You didn't need to.
You know that one can make more friends in months by really interested in other people than one can in
two years by trying to get other people interested in him. Let me repeat that. You can make more friends in
two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people
interested in you.

C. a pet dog
D. a psychology book

“Have you ever found a treasure?” I once asked my father．He smiled a big smile and told me this story．
“Once when I was about ten years old,” my father told me, “I went treasure hunting with my older sister．She had heard some people talking about a treasure box hidden in a hillside cave．One day we went there and spent two or three hours looking for the entrance to the cave．Then, as I was trying to squeeze between two big stones, I suddenly fell into a hole．It was the mouth of a tunnel that led to the cave．My sister and I crawled through into it．It was very dark but we had brought a flashlight and we were shocked to see that there was a large wooden box ahead of us．We ran to the box and pulled it open．It was filled with silver and gold coins．I started to count them but my sister told me to stop．“This is only money ，”she said，“This is not a real treasure．If you want money , all you have to do is to work for it”．
I was going to argue with her when I suddenly noticed a big metal box on the other side of the cave．The box was filled with statues．Some statues were made of ivory or gold, with diamonds for eyes and rubies for lips．I took one of the gold statues out of the box．‘Don’t do that!’ yelled my sister．‘This is only beauty and art．It is not a real treasure．There must be something better here．’
We searched and searched, but there was nothing else in the cave．Then the battery in the flashlight started to die．We got scared and crawled back．I wiggled through but my sister got stuck half way between the stones．I tried to pull her out but I couldn’t．I ran up and down the street knocking on doors but nobody would come．
The only one who would help was a girl about my age．She got a rope and a spade and a water bottle．About an hour later, we got my sister out of the stones．I became good friends with the girl who had helped us．She was very responsible, faithful, kind and loving．When we finished college I realized that she was the woman I wanted to marry．That’s your mom．I thought I had found the best treasure in the world．”
