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. “Its for my little brother，” the girl answered. “Hes really，really sick and I 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 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.

This can cause serious problems for your health if youre always like this. According to studies, people who exercise are healthier, happier, more energetic (精力充沛的), think more clearly, and sleep better. Besides, exercise helps reduce stress. Here are some strategies to help you get rid of the habit of being a couch potato and get into the habit of exercising regularly:Do exercise at least once every two days. You can miss a day, but the next day you must exercise no matter how difficult it is. Exercise gives energy. If you feel too tired to do exercise, remember that doing exercise gives you energy. This can encourage you to go to the gym. The exercise will make you feel far more energetic than when you went in.Dont kid (欺骗) yourself. Having been in good shape before doesnt mean youre in good shape today. Be honest about what your habits really are now.You have time. If you cannot do more, just go for a twenty-minute walk! It will really pay off.Just think about the fact that exercise is going to make you feel happier, calmer, and more energetic right now. Dont think about unclear, long-term benefits (好处), like living a longer life, and dont give up if you dont lose any weight in one month. Its worth exercising for many other reasons.58.

They are not as polite, hard-working or clever as my generation. I will give you two examples.Last Friday, I got on the underground at 9.15a.m. It was very busy so there were no free seats. There were some teenagers sitting on the seats nearest me. I didnt know why they were not at school. They were talking loudly and laughing. It was difficult to read my newspaper with all the noise. A heavily pregnant(怀孕的) woman and her daughter got on at the next stop, with lots of shopping bags. I expected the teenagers to let them sit down. They saw the woman but did nothing. I had to ask them to give her a seat. They reluctantly(勉强地)did so but give me a rude look. I got off at the next stop and was glad that the teenagers didnt follow me. Last Saturday, I had dinner with my friends family. I was expecting to meet his children, who I hadnt seen for ten years. During dinner, we started talking about world politics.
