I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or conflict. I ’m left 36  . Why do these people create mistrust and problems, especially with those from other 37 ？
I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s, 38   children from different races and religions played and studied 39  in harmony. At that time my family lived a stone s 40 from Ismail’s. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and Iwas an Indian Hindu——we just  41 our differences. Perhaps, our elders had not filled our heads with unnecessary advice，well 42   or otherwise.
We were nine when we became friends. During the school holidays, we'd   43   the countryside on our bicycles, hoping to   44  the unexpected. At times Ismail would accompany my family as we made a rare shopping trip to town. We would be glad of his 45 .
When I was twelve, my family moved to Johor. Ismail s family later returned to their village, and I   46    touch with him.
One spring afternoon in 1983, I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur. I   47   my destination. The driver acknowledged my    48  but did not move off. Instead, he looked 49   at me. “Raddar?" he said, using my childhood nickname(绰号). I was astonished at being so 50  addressed (称呼). Unexpectedly! It was Ismail! Even after two 51 we still recognized each other. Grasping his shoulder, I felt a true affection, something 52  to describe.
If we can allow our children to be  53   without prejudice, they'll build friendships with people, regardless of race or religion, who will be 54   their side through' thick and thin. On such friendships are societies built and 55 we can truly be, as William Shakespeare once wrote, 44we happy few, we band of brothers".
