Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to in his bed for an hour each afternoon for treatment. His 2
was next to the room's only window. The other man 3
spend all his time flat on his back. Every 4
when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he 5
pass the time by describing to his 6
all the things he could see outside the window. The window overlooked a 7
with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children 8
their model boats. Young lovers walked 9
among flowers. As the man by the window described all this beautifully, the other man would close his eyes and 10
the scene.
One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the 11
body of the man by the window, who had died 12
in his sleep. She was saddened and 13
the hospital attendants (服务员) to take the body away. 14
it seemed appropriate (合适的), the other man asked if he could 15
next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after 16
he was comfortable, she left him alone. Slowly and painfully, he sat up to take his 17
look at the world outside. Finally, he would have the 18
of seeing it for himself. He strained (紧张地) to slowly turn to 19
the window beside the bed. It faced a blank wall.
The man asked the nurse what could have forced his dead roommate to 20
those wonderful things outside this window. The nurse answered that the man was blind and could not even see the wall. She said, “Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you.”
