39、y years. Then Raha and Baba, her father, rode the crowded bus to the airport. “Your Raha means happiness,”Baba said.“Remember that.”As the plane took off, Raha looked out the window at the animals and rivers in her homeland. She stared down at the green fields where she used to run like the wind.At
40、school in England, it wasnt easy for Raha to stay happy. The teachers gave her dozens of math problems to solve, essays to write and books to read. Her running coach gave her a shirt and white shorts, running shoes for the coming crosscountry. Raha had always run barefoot at home, and the shoes were
41、 tight on her feet. But all the other runners wore shoes, and Raha didnt want to be different.The team practised running every Saturday.

42、foot and fast under the warm sun.One Saturday, Raha ran up a hill and found herself before a barn (牲口棚). One of her classmates named Thomas, stood just inside the barn. After he greeted her, Raha asked, “Why arent you watching rugby?” “I have to help my father to look after the cows,” said Thomas. “
43、Would you like to see them?”Raha entered the barn, and the familiar smell of cows surrounded her. “We also have a cow at home,” she said. “I call her Rafiki. That means friend” Raha touched the round side of a brown cow. “Shell give birth to a calf (小牛) soon,” said Thomas.The next Saturday, Raha ran
44、 up to Thomass farm and didnt see him at the barn, so she ran up the hill to the fields above.

46、he place where Thomas lived. Raha found Thomas and his father, and they followed her back up the hill. When they reached there, the calf was already born, but it lay weak and still. Thomass father dragged the calf to the mothers head. The cow smelt her calf, and started to lick its wet fur. The calf
47、 opened its eyes. “We came just in time. Thank you,” said Thomas.Looking at the newborn calf, Thomass father said,“Shell be needing a name.” After careful consideration, Thomas excitedly suggested, “Why not name her Rafiki, just like Rahas cow at home?” Then he smiled at Raha and said, “It means friend” Thomass father nodded, “Thats a good idea! You both make good friends here.” She grinned. It was the first time she felt truly delighted in the new country. “Baba,” she said to herself, “Im living up to my name. Im happy to help them and make friends.”
