I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or conflict. I’m left 1 . Why do these people create mistrust and problems, especially with those from other 2 ?
I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s, 3 children from different races and religions played and studied 4 in harmony. At that time my family lived a stone’s 5 from Ismail’s. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and I was an Indian Hindu—we just 6 our differences. Perhaps, our elders had not filled our heads with unnecessary advice, well 7 or otherwise.
We were nine when we became friends. During the school holidays, we’d 8 the countryside on our bicycles, hoping to 9 the unexpected. At times Ismail would accompany my family as we made a rare shopping trip to town. We would be glad of his 10 .
When I was twelve, my family moved to Johor. Ismail’s family later returned to their village, and I 11 touch with him.
One spring afternoon in 1983, I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur. I 12 my destination. The driver acknowledged my 13 but did not move off. Instead, he looked 14 at me. “Raddar?” he said, using my childhood nickname. I was astonished at being so 15 addressed (稱呼). Unexpectedly! It was Ismail! Even after two 16 we still recognized each other. Grasping his shoulder, I felt a true affection, something 17 to describe.
If we can allow our children to be 18 without prejudice, they’ll build friendships with people, regardless of race or religion, who will be 19 their side through thick and thin. On such friendships are societies built and 20 we can truly be, as William Shakespeare once wrote,“we happy few, we band of brothers”.

The annual marathon in my town usually took place in summer. My job was to 21 behind the runners in an ambulance 22 any of them needed medical attention. The driver and I were in an air-conditioned ambulance behind nearly one hundred athletes 23 to hear the sharp crack of the starting gun.
“We’re supposed to stay behind the 24 runner, so take it slowly ,” I said to the driver , Doug , as we began to creep forward .
“Let’s just hope all the runners are fast!” he laughed.
As they began to pace themselves, the front runners started to 25 . It was then that my 26 were drawn to the woman in blue silk running shorts and a baggy white T-shirt.
“Doug, look!”
We knew we were already watching our “l(fā)ast runner”. Her feet were turned in, but her left knee was turned out. Her legs were so crippled and bent that it seemed impossible for her to be able to walk , let alone run a marathon .
Doug and I watched in 27 as she slowly moved forward. We didn’t say a thing. We would move forward a little bit, then stop and wait for her to gain some distance. Then we’d slowly move forward a little bit more.
Finally, she was the 28 runner left in sight. Tears streamed down my face as I sat on the edge of my seat and watched with amazement and even respect as she 29 forward with strong determination through the last miles.
When the 30 line came into sight, rubbishes lay everywhere and the cheering crowds had already gone home. 31 , a man waited proudly there. He was 32 one end of a ribbon (帶子) tied to a post. 33 slowly crossed through, leaving both ends of the ribbon fluttering behind her.
I do not know this woman’s name, but that day she became a part of my life –a part I often depend on. For her, it wasn’t about 34 the other runners or winning a competition, it was about finishing what she had set out to do, no matter 35 . When I think things are too difficult or too time-consuming, I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is.
