She  3  all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Then she  4  her way six blocks to the drugstore（药店）.

"And what do you want?" asked the shopkeeper. "It’s  5  my little brother," the girl answered back. "He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a  6 . His name is Andrew and he has something  7  growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him." "We don’t  8  miracles here, child.

In the shop was a  10  customer. He stooped （蹲） down and asked the little girl, "What kind of miracle does your brother  11 ?" "I don’t know," she replied. "He’s really sick and mommy says he needs  12. But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought my 13 ." "How much do you have?" asked the man. "One dollar and eleven cents,  14  I can try and get some more," she answered quietly. "Well, what a coincidence（巧合）," smiled the man. "A dollar and eleven cents — the  15  price of a miracle for little brothers.  16 me to where you live. I want to see your brother and  17  your parents."

That well-dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a doctor. The operation was completed without any  18  and it wasn’t long before Andrew was 19  again from hospital and doing well. The little girl was happy. She knew exactly how much the miracle cost ... one dollar and eleven cents ... also the  20  of a little child.
