I was sleeping peacefully last night when I was woken up by someone’s groans (呻吟). I listened, and heard that they were from Sam, a student from Africa. I really planned to ____1____ sleeping, as I had just fallen asleep, but I couldn’t because Sam groaned louder and louder. It showed he was ____2____ ill. At that time, Robbie also woke up. We found some ____3____, and helped Sam sit up to take it. Robbie and I hoped that this would reduce his ____4____ and get him through the difficult time. If only the morning could come quickly, everything would become easier.

Things went against our wishes. Sam’s ____5____ developed from bad to worse. We called the emergency services, and in a short time an ambulance (救护车) stopped in front of our gate. Robbie and I helped the medical workers get to the ____6____.

We helped him go through many checkups. After all kinds of tests, we felt ____7____ to hear that he just got appendicitis (阑尾炎). Luckily, Sam didn’t need an operation because he was ____8____ to hospital in time and got timely treatment.

At daybreak, Sam was much better. ____9____ making sure that he was taken good care of, Robbie and I rushed back to prepare for our classes. We were tired, but felt ____10____ for having done something good.
