Joseph was my best friend. He was the only son of Adam Tan, a well-known former athlete and a member of the first Malaysia team to reach the South Pole in an exploration. Hence, many assumed Joseph to be as sporting as his father. However, since he was young, he has been a sickly boy. He suffered from a severe breathing problem and preferred to read books indoors.
A year ago, his father was stuck by a wild bull (公牛) on the last mile of his exploration in the Mautu wilderness in Africa and later died. On the anniversary (周年纪念日) of his father’s death, he was hurt by the unkind remarks from Bala and Azhar, his classmates. They had called him “a sickly boy”, remarking that he was a disgrace (丢脸的人) to his father. From that day on, Joseph devoted himself to building up his body and turned his attention and efforts enthusiastically to sports. “No one will compare me unfavorably to my father,” he thought.
Joseph joined our school exploration team and then became its leader. We were all excited when we learned that the school had planned an exploration in Kalimantan, Indonesia. It was also meant to be memory of Joseph’s father, who was its former adviser.
The exploration really tested our courage and skills. Though we had the help of our two teacher advisers, we were determined to succeed in the exploration which was to cross a and forest. The last stage was the forest and we were within sight of our target. We had only one more kilometer to cover before we would emerge from the forest and successfully complete our exploration in the required time. If we succeeded, we would be the first school team to have done that in record time.
