“I am not in a hurry,” I told him. “Go ahead and finish your letter.” He 26 his head. “I've read it several times already. I guess I 27 know it by heart.”
“Letters from home always mean a lot,” I said. “From a child?”
“This isn't 28 ,” he replied. “Although it 29 just as well have been family. Old Ed was my oldest friend. In fact, we used to call each other 'Old Friend' when we'd meet. I'm not much good at 30 .”
“I don't think any of us keep 31 our correspondence (通信) too well,” I said. “I know I don't. But I take it he's someone you've 32 quite a while?”
“All my life. We were kids together, went to school together and all the 33 through high school.”
“There are not too many people who've had such a long friendship,” I said.
“ 34 ,” the driver went on, “I hadn't seen him more than once or twice a year over the past 25 or 30 years because I 35 away from the old neighbourhood and you kind of lose touch 36 you never forget.”
“You said 'was'. Does that mean….?” He nodded. “ 37 a couple of weeks ago.”
“I'm sorry,” I said. “It's no fun to lose any friend—and losing a real old one is 38 tougher.”
He didn't 39 to that, and we rode on in silence for a few minutes. But I realized that Old Ed was still on his mind when he spoke again, almost more to himself than to me: “I should have kept in touch.”
“Well,” I agreed, “we should all keep in touch with old friends more than we do. But things 40 and we just don't seem to find the time.”
When I got to my hotel room I didn't unpack right away. First I had to write a letter and mail it.

He wouldn’t join the army because he was in love with a beautiful girl. “If only I could find a 23 to make the doctor believe there is something 24 with my body,” he thought and thought. Suddenly, a good idea crossed his mind.
The next morning Jim got to the 25 on time and was led into a large room. He hurriedly found a seat to sit down and took out an out-of-date newspaper, 26 to read it. Soon it was his turn to be examined. When he came up to the doctor, the old man took a quick and sharp look at him. Then in a 27 he ordered Jim to take off his clothes, go straight to a corner and sit down on a chair there. No sooner had he seated himself on the chair than he heard the doctor murmuring to his assistant: “Finished! The boy is 28 up to the standard.”
“How can you draw such a 29 like that before you give me a 30 check? Jim shouted at the doctor.
“Don’t be impetuous(冲动), young man! Put on your clothes, and then I’ll 31 it to you,” the doctor said 32 .“You said we didn’t examine you carefully, but I don’t think it

36 , you’re perfect in mind and body.”
Half a year later, Jim was killed on the battlefield. At the news his girlfriend nearly went
37 . She kept weeping. “Don’t be like that, my dear.” It was an old man’s 38 voice. “Your Jim died a real man. He 39 his life to the people all over the world. It is right that we should be proud of him…” Saying this, the old man, her father, was choked(哽咽). His only 40 was that he had never had Jim know who he was.
