A

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 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. “It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “He’s really, really
sick and I want to
buy a miracle.” “Pardon?” said the salesman.

“My brother Andrew has something bad growing in
side his head and my daddy says only a
miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell a miracle here, child.
I’m sorry,”
the salesman said with a smile.

“Listen, if it isn’t 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 don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs
an opera
tion . But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.”

“How much do you have?” asked the man. “$$ 1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she
answered.“Well, what luck,” smiled the man. “$$ 1.11, the price of a miracle for little brothers.”

He took up the girl’s hand and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and
meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”That well
-dressed man was Dr

What are you going to do if you are in a burning house? How will you escape? Do you

know how to save yourself? Please read the following passage.

Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save you life. It

is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as
stairways and fire escapes, but not lifts.

From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possible, learn the best
way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious injury.

The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person,
hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about

the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a

burning building.

Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or
smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get
fresh air rather than smoke that may leaked
(
渗
)
into the room.

On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof. From the
roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement
(
水泥
)
might end in injury.
Bushes and grass can help to break a fall.

Do you know how to play a game called “Musical Chairs”? It is easy to play and most people

a piano or any other musical instrument, if someone can play it. You may use a tape recorder. You
can even use a radio.

direction, of course, they should walk in time to the music. If the music is fast they should walk
quickly. If the music is slow, they should walk slowly.

player will be out.
