參考譯文

去年，我從報紙上得知，一些患病的小孩需要幫助。我給報社打了電話，他們讓我?guī)椭粋€叫做麗莎的小女孩，她患有精神疾病。

不久，我去看望麗莎。因為在精神病院已經(jīng)接受了數(shù)年的治療，最近她獲準待在家里。一開始，大多是我在說話，麗莎因性格過于文靜內(nèi)向，只是害羞地坐在沙發(fā)一角聽我說。她小心避免我們之間的目光相遇。經(jīng)過一段時間后，我再出現(xiàn)時，麗莎已經(jīng)逐漸變得自然了。我們每周聚會一次，活動內(nèi)容通常是共享一杯熱咖啡，去街上逛逛但不買東西，或是到鄉(xiāng)村散步。麗莎從未跟我談起她對我們之間交往的看法，甚至在我們接觸整整一年之后。然而，她知道她總能依賴我。

后來有一天，我接到了志愿者組織打來的電話。“瑪麗，你和麗莎愿意到當?shù)仉娨暸_的新聞節(jié)目接受采訪嗎？”我很興奮，于是回答說：“太好了！讓我和麗莎商量商量?！蔽矣X得麗莎不會坦然接受現(xiàn)場采訪。但沒想到的是，麗莎表示同意。

接受采訪時她說：“如果我能幫助別人了解友誼對我有多重要，它又是怎樣幫助我的，或許別人也會做志愿者?，旣?，那不是很好嗎？”我們相視而笑，眼淚流了下來。
