父亲节就快到了,我在准备送给父亲的礼物。

(fùqīnjié jiùkuài dàole, wǒzài zhǔnbèi sònɡɡěi fùqīn delǐwù.) 

B: No gift is more precious than life. I saw a report about a 9-year-old son in Zhejiang Province who donated his hematopoietic stem cells to his father. 

最珍贵的礼物莫过于生命了吧。我看到有新闻报道浙江省9岁儿子为父亲捐献造血干细胞。

A: So moving! Hematopoietic stem cells are like the seeds of life. They can give hope to people suffering from acute myelocytic leukemia.

这么感人啊！造血干细胞就好比是生命的种子,能为身患急性髓系白血病的患者带来希望。

B: A doctor explained that the younger a hematopoietic stem cell donor is the better.The patient recovers more quickly. 

医生介绍说造血干细胞捐献者年纪越小越合适。患者也恢复得快。
