John,11 years
old, was in bed in hospital. Several days before,
while he was 1
in a baseball game, he fell
and hit his head. The doctors believed
that he might 2
get well.
“He
seems to have given up hope.
So medicines alone won’t 3
.Perhaps he needs something
else,” said a
doctor.“When I visit
him,
all he ever says is
that he would like to meet Babe Ruth.”
To meet Babe Ruth, of course, was not

.In America,
Babe Ruth was as important as the President, and
he was the most 5
baseball
player.
The next day John’s father
tried to tell Babe Ruth about the story of his son
on the phone.
Twenty-four hours
later, when the boy 6
in his hospital room, Babe
Ruth walked in. Young John could hardly

his own eyes!
The great baseball player sat down at
John’s bedside,
and said,
“Kid,you’ve got to get well.
I’ve brought you a
new
American League baseball,8
you must start throwing
it.”
For John this was the
beginning of a new life. To 9
doctors’
surprise,
the boy walked out of the
hospital
on his own a few weeks later.
He was able to live a healthy
life
—
all because of the
10
of Babe Ruth.

We could all say that we have bad days
as we go through life, but what does it take to
have a really good day?
I remember a
day recently when I had to go to the 1
for special tests because I
wasn’t
feeling well and my
doctor sent me to a specialist to try
and find the cause of my illness.
As I
2
to
the hospital,
I was feeling sad and
certainly wasn’t on top of my game.
As
I got to the hospital,
I began my
3
for a parking lot. I finally found one
not too far from the entrance to the hospital.
As I got out and brought my change out
of my pocket, I noticed a man looking a little
4
standing in front
of a
parking meter(
停车计时收费表
)two
cars away. He seemed to be searching his pockets
for what I supposed
were 5
for the meter.
Although I 6
didn’t feel that great,
I
thought that I should at least go over to him
and find out if I could 7
him. As I stood
beside him, he turned to me looking worried. I
asked him if he had a
problem I could
help with. He said that he had no coins at all
because he was only thinking about visiting his
sick
wife when he left his house.
I reached into my pocket and
8
out two dollars and gave it to him
without saying a word. And, without
waiting for a reply, I turned on my
h
eel and said to him as I was walking
away:“Have a good day.”
The
funny thing was that I felt a lot brighter, a
small smile came to my face, and I seemed to walk
just a little
quicker.
I was
walking away when he called out:“Thank you so
much.” You know,
I
didn’t
even 9
him to
say
anything.
He didn’t have
to say a word to me.
It was simply
enough to know that I had helped someone else who
needed a little 10
.That’s all it took to
bring a smile to my face as I went on toward
completing my own
business.
You know,
it doesn’t take
much to help someone else.
