Question

【题目】 A father who spent his life admiring Superman had his own superhero moment recently, although it came just after his death, when he saved two lives by giving away his kidneys (肾).

Chris Kmetz, a 41-year-old Washington father of two, fell into a pond on Feb. 23 while he was driving home. When doctors told his wife, Jackie Kmetz, that her husband wouldn't make it, she changed him into a "Superdad" shirt and put their two kids, 2-year-old Madelyn and 4-year-old Dexter, in their own Superman clothes to say goodbye. Chris Kmetz died on Feb. 28, 2015.

"During his childhood, Chris was introduced to picture books, and Superman became his first love," Jackie says. Chris kept over 1,000 such picture books in his bedroom and dressed as Superman every Halloween, and even sent videos telling superhero stories to his kids when he couldn't be home to put them to bed.

Before his death, Chris cared a lot about organ(器官) donation , Jackie says. In fact, one of their usual conversations was the fact that they were both ready to be donors. "It was very clear in the first few hours after Chris's accident that the damage to his brain was deadly, so I talked to the doctors about that because it was something very important to Chris," Jackie says.

Not all donors are able to save lives. Only one percent of hospital deaths meet the standards of organ donation, but Chris was one of them. Jackie said their children didn't yet know about their father's last act of kindness, but she will share his great stories with them later. "I'll make copies of the videos and news stories so we can see how heroic he was," she says.
