Paul answered,“Yes,my brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it did cost you nothing?Sir,I wish…”He hesitated(犹豫),Paul thought of course he knew what the boy wanted,but what the boy said surprised him greatly.“I wish,”the boy went on,“that I could be a brother like that.”Paul looked at the boy in surprise,and then he said again,“Would you like to take a ride in my car?”“Oh yes,I’d   love to ,”the boy answered.
After a short ride,the boy turned and with his eyes shining,said,“Sir,would you mind driving in front of my house?”
