There are great doctors and perhaps it is enough to say that Dr Charles Mayo was one． 36 ，it is not enough for me．
Charles Mayo was not a 37 of mine in the sense that he would 38 by for dinner or remember my daughter’s graduation．We were not that 39 ，for he lived in Minnesota and I lived in California．He was a friend in the sense that he 40 more like a friend than a doctor when he was being a doctor．
I got very close to him just once．More 41 ，he got very close to me．I was flying my own plane to Washington and I felt a serious 42 in my back．It turned around， 43 for a clinic nearby and got in 44 with Dr Jan，my doctor．Jan at once said I had appendicitis (阑尾炎) and I told him he was the 45 doctor I had ever met．“I have no fever and any other symptoms of it．How can I 46 have appendicitis?”
“If you want to 47 better as quickly as possible，we’ll have Charles Mayo look at you．”It took Charles Mayo about thirty seconds to 48 to Jan’s request．
Charles was washing his hands when I was 49 into the operation room．I said，my
50 shaking，“You have done this before，haven’t you?”
“Of course，”he said．“Twice．”
Among all his interests he was craziest about being a doctor．He faced 51 often enough to know that while it is final in a sense，it is not 52 final at all．He enjoyed 53 too much not to know that it has a meaning beyond here and now．
54 he died on July 29，1968，at the age of seventy，following an accident，he lived on in the 55 of his books．I am glad he wrote them，giving people the feeling that we still have him．

Even though it was only October, my students were already whispering about Christmas plans. With each passing day everyone became more 36 , waiting for the final school bell. Upon its 37 everyone would run for their coats and go home, everyone except David.
David was a small boy in ragged (破旧的) clothes. I had often 38 what kind of home life David had, and what kind of mother could send her son to school dressed so 39 for the cold winter months, without a coat, boots, or gloves. But something made David 40 . I can still remember he was always 41 a smile and willing to help. He always 42 after school to straighten chairs and mop the floor. We never talked much. He 43 just simply smile and ask what else he could do, then thank me for letting him stay and slowly 44 home.
Weeks passed and the 45 over the coming Christmas grew into restlessness until the last day of 46 before the holiday break. I smiled in 47 as the last of them hurried out of the door. Turning around I saw David 48 standing by my desk.
“I have something for you,” he said and 49 from behind his back a small box. 50 it to me, he said anxiously, “Open it.” I took the box from him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped it. I lifted the lid and to my 51 I saw nothing. I looked at David‘s smiling face and back into the box and said, “The box is nice, David, but it’s 52 .”
“Oh no, it isn’t,” said David. “It’s full of love. My mum told me before she died that love was something you couldn’t see or touch unless you know it’s there.”
Tears filled my eyes 53 I looked at the proud dirty face that I had rarely given 54 to. After that Christmas, David and I became good friends and I never forgot the meaning 55 the little empty box set on my desk.
