f********v 发帖数: 204 | 1 Nicholas Castle, a 23-year-old UC Berkeley graduate who taught English with
the Peace Corps in rural China, died Thursday.
Mr. Castle, who grew up in Brentwood, died at a Chinese hospital three days
after falling ill, said his mother, Susan Castle, who flew to China to be
with her son. Doctors aren't certain what the illness was, she said.
"I always called him scary smart," said Susan Castle, a freelance network
administrator. "He was all-around smart - he liked everything. I looked on
his Kindle when we were there and everything was Kurt Vonnegut; he would
read everything."
His father, David Castle, said his son often insisted that they watch movies
from the American Film Institute's list of top 100 films.
"We would sit together and we'd watch movies that I didn't get at all," said
David Castle, a sergeant with the Brentwood Police Department. "We'd just
discuss them and debate. ... But he wasn't arrogant smart, he wasn't
condescending."
Mr. Castle wanted a career in U.S.-Chinese diplomacy and was excited when
the Peace Corps stationed him in China to teach English, his mother said. He
moved to southern China's Guizhou province in July, one month after
graduating with degrees in political science and comparative politics.
He acclimated to life in the rural area, where his students often invited
themselves over to his home to teach traditional Chinese cooking.
" 'How many (came over)?' I would ask, thinking it would be two or three,"
Susan Castle said. "And he would say 12 or 15."
His father added, "There are two things I've heard him use the word 'love'
with besides family - that was Cal and then when he went in the Peace Corps."
Mr. Castle's body has been flown to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware, where
government pathologists will conduct an autopsy.
He is survived by his father, mother and three brothers. Services are
pending. | a*****i 发帖数: 361 | | d***u 发帖数: 1310 | 3 TG谋杀!

不过这个病因都还不清楚呢,有可能是吃了什么东西中毒,有可能是被啥虫子咬了,也
有可能身体本身有啥问题。 | t****v 发帖数: 9235 | 10 泰国皮皮岛就经常发生游客中毒身亡
