       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 an operation (手術) could save him now and there was no one to
lend them the money. 
       One day she heard her Daddy say to her tearful mother, "Only a miracle (奇跡) can save him now."
The little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her piggy bank (存錢罐) from its hiding place. She poured
all the coins out on the floor and counted them carefully. 
       Holding her piggy bank, she ran to the nearby drugs store. she placed her coins on the glass counter.
       "I want to buy a miracle for my little brother. He is really sick." said the little girl to the shop assistant.
       "I beg your pardon?" the shop assistant could hardly believe what he heard.
       "His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a
miracle can save him."
       "We don't sell miracle here, child. I'm sorry," the shop assistant said.
       "Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn't enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how
much it costs." 
       In the shop was a well-dressed customer (顧客). His name was Carlton Armstrong. He asked the little
girl, "What kind of miracle does your brother need?" 
       "I don't know," she replied. "He is really sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy
can't pay for it." 
        "How much do you have?" asked the man. "One dollar and eleven cents," she answered. "Well," smiled
the man. "A dollar and eleven cents? That is the exact price of a miracle for your little brother. I have the kind
of miracle you need." 
        He took her money in one hand and held her hand with the other. He said, "Take me to where you live.
I want to see your brother and meet your parents." 
        Carlton Armstrong saved Andrew's life by giving him a successful operation. 
        "That operation," her mother said in a low voice, "was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have
cost." The little girl smiled. She knew exactly how much the miracle cost-one dollar and eleven cents.
