Lucy Marlow had everything an eleven-year-old girl could possibly want except one thing: a pair of pink leather roller skates (旱冰鞋). Unfortunately, the skates cost over $1, 700. Even though Lucy's parents were very indulgent (纵容的), they thought it was too much for a toy. "It's not a toy!" Lucy cried. "It's transportation!" Lucy's parents gave in and promised that she could have them only if she had straight A on her report card.
Soon at the end of the term, Lucy proudly presented her parents with the straight—A re-port card they'd demanded, and the next weekend, Lucy was whizzing (飞速行驶)around the neighborhood faster than anyone else with her new skates.
Then one day when Lucy went to school, she was surprised to discover there was a new girl in her class. She was sitting at the desk next to Lucy in geography and she looked very friendly.
"Hi! I'm Lucy, "Lucy whispered. "Want to go roller skating after school?" "Hi! My name is Heather. But I'm afraid I can't!" Heather said.
"Listen, if you don't have skates, you can use my old ones, "Lucy said. "I have a brand new pair…"
The bell rang, Heather reached to pick up a pair of crutches (拐杖)under the desk and got up. Lucy was shocked to find one of her legs was missing above the knee. She gasped, "Oh, I'm so sorry! What happened?" Heather shrugged, "It was a car accident."
That night, Lucy couldn't sleep. She got up and turned on her laptop. There were all kinds of prosthetic limbs (假肢)for kids. Lucy wondered why Heather didn't have one.
The next day, over lunch, Lucy asked Heather, "So, how come you don't have a prosthetic limb?" Heather blushed. "I had one, three years ago, after the accident, "she explained. "But I outgrew it. My dad lost his job so we don't have insurance anymore. We've contacted a non-profit that helps kids like me, but I'm on a waiting list…"Hearing her words, Lucy fell into a short silence, remembering how she pressured her parents into buying her the pink skates.
