News Report 2
新聞報(bào)告2
Two men who have been best friends for 60 years have just realized they are actually brothers. It's reported that Alan Robinson and Walter MacDonald met in the sixth grade at a school in Hawaii. They have been best friends ever since. Alan was given away for adoption soon after he was born, and Walter never knew his father. So recently they made separate attempts on DNA matching websites to discover more about their ancestry. Walter was astonished to find that he matched with website user "Robbie 737". He knew immediately that this was his best friend Alan, whose friends call him Robbie, and flew 737 airplanes when he was a pilot. The pair were born to the same mother 15 months apart.
兩位已經(jīng)做了60年好友的人最近發(fā)現(xiàn)他們實(shí)際上是兄弟。據(jù)報(bào)道,艾倫·羅賓遜和沃爾特·麥克唐納在夏威夷一所學(xué)校的六年級(jí)時(shí)相識(shí)。從那時(shí)起,他們一直是最好的朋友。艾倫出生后不久就被收養(yǎng)了,而沃爾特從未見過他的父親。因此,他們最近在DNA匹配網(wǎng)站上分別嘗試了解更多關(guān)于他們祖先的信息。沃爾特驚訝地發(fā)現(xiàn)他與網(wǎng)站用戶“Robbie 737”匹配。他立刻認(rèn)出這是他的好友艾倫,艾倫的朋友們叫他Robbie,他當(dāng)飛行員時(shí)駕駛過737飛機(jī)。兩人是同一個(gè)母親所生,相隔15個(gè)月。
