【题目】 Donna Ashlock, a 14-year-old girl from California, was very sick. She had a bad heart. “Donna needs a new heart,” her doctor said, “she must have a new heart, or she will die soon.”

Felipe Carza, 15, was worried about Donna. Felipe was Donna’s friend. He liked Donna very much. He liked her freckles, and he liked her smile. Felipe didn’t want Donna to die.

Felipe talked to his mother about Donna. “I am going to die,” Felipe told his mother, “and I am going to give my heat to Donna.”

Felipe’s mother didn’t pay much attention to Felipe. “Felipe is just kidding,” she thought, “Felipe is not going to die. He’s strong and healthy.”

But Felipe was not healthy. He had terrible headaches sometimes. “my head hurts,” he often told his friends. Felipe never told his parents about his headaches.

One morning Felipe woke up with a sharp pain in his head. He was dizzy (眩晕的), and he couldn’t breathe. His parents rushed Felipe to the hospital. Doctors at the hospital had terrible news for them. “Felipe’ s brain is dead,” the doctors said, “we can’t save him.”
