Paris has the Eiffel Tower,New York the Statue of Liberty;and Brussels,the Manneken Piss.

    Think of the Belgian capital and,if anything,you think of the small peeing(撒尿)boy——a 60—centimeter—high bronze figure standing on a block,supplying a constant stream of water to the basin under him.

    Some might laugh.But for Jacques Stroobants,the statue is up there with the best of them.

    “I’m proud of him.People come from all around the world to see him,”says 60—year—old Stroobants with a fatherly glance at the little boy.As the most famous landmark of Brussels,Manneken Piss has a very special place in the heart of Belgians.

The original Manneken Piss dates back to 1388。but the statue tourists see today dates from 1619 when the city built a second one after the original was destroyed.

    There are many stories surrounding the legend of Mannekin Piss.Nobody knows why he was created.One story is that he saved Brussels by putting out the flames of a deadly fire with his well—aimed piss.But the most believable story is that the boy,the son of a wealthy man,was kidnapped(绑架).The father had a statue built in honor of the way his son was found—peeing against a tree.

    Perhaps best—known for his naked beauty。the“peeing boy” has also been clothed in some of the finest clothes money can buy.

    Stroobants has been changing his clothes for t he last 29 years.On average,he has clothes on 300 days a year.And on special occasions,he“pees”beer.

    A few of the ways he’s been dressed are:a foot ball player,Mozart and an army genera1.Now,he has more than 600 pieces of clothes.  

    There is no strict charge for those wishing to provide clothes for the little boy.But certain conditions must be met.

    “The clothes cannot include either advertising or political message,”said Stroobants,because they would cheapen the national treasure.

     But the peeing boy’s image is still something local people can make money from—by

selling all kinds of souvenirs.  ‘

I believe in miracles(奇迹)because I've seen so many of them. One day, a patient was referred to me who was one hundred and two years old. “There’s a   36   in my upper jaw,” she said. “I told my own dentist it's nothing, but he   37   I come to see you.”

Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her. He would    38   to add something, but she stopped him. She wanted to tell everything herself. I found a large cancer that spread over much of the    39   of her mouth. A careful examination later    40    that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer.

During her next appointment, I explained to her the   41   of the problem. She clasped my hand in hers and said, “I know you’re worried about me, but I’m just   42   .  ”

I thought otherwise. After considerable   43   on my part, and kindness on her part because she wanted to   44   me, she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon(外科医生). She saw him, but as I expected,    45   treatment.

About six months later she returned to my office, still energetic and   46   .

“How are you?” I asked.

“I’m just fine, honey,” she responded   47   high spirits. “When can I get started on fixing my dentures(假牙)?”

Surprised to see her at all, I answered   48   , “Let me take a look in your mouth and we’ll see about it.”

      I couldn’t believe my eyes. The cancer that had   49   nearly the entire roof of her mouth was gone—only one small area of redness    50   .

      I had read of such things happening, but had    51   seen them with my own eyes. That was my first miracle. Since then I've seen many others, because they keep getting   52   to see. In fact, miracles are daily events for me now. And people are a miracle,   53   through them we have a chance to know ourselves and to   54   the miracles of one another.

      Since my first miracle, I've come to understand that the time and place for a miracle is 55 we choose to find it.
