Passage1
An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother.All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money.Only a very expensive operation (手术) could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.
When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, Only a miracle (奇迹) can save him now, the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.
She hurried to a drugstore (药店) with the money in her hand.
And what do you want? asked the salesman.Its for my little brother. the girl answered.Hes really, really sick and 1 want to buy a miracle. Pardon? said the salesman.
My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him.So how much does a miracle cost? We dont sell a miracle here, child.Im sorry, the salesman said with a smile.
Listen，if it isnt enough, I can try and get some more.Just tell me how much it costs.
A well-dressed man heard it and asked.What kind of a miracle does your brother need?
I dont know. she answered with her eyes full of tears.Hes really sick and mum says he needs an operation.But my daddy cant pay for it.So I have brought all my money.
How much do you have? asked the man.$1.11, but I can try and get some more, she answered.
Well, what a luck, smiled the man, $1.11, the price of a miracle for little brothers.
He took up the girls hand and said, Take me to where you live.I want to see your brother and meet your parents.Lets see if I have the kind of miracle you need.
That well-dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a famous doctor.The operation was successful and it wasnt long before Andrew was home again.
