An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. She knew that his little brother was very ill and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation（昂贵的手术） could save（挽救）him now.
When she heard her father say to her mother, “Only a miracle can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and took her money and counted it carefully.
She ran to a drugstore (药店) with the money in her hand.
“And what do you want?” asked the man. “It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “He’s really, really ill and I want to buy a miracle.” “say it again?” said the man.
“My brother Andrew has something wrong with his head and my father says only a miracle can save him. So how much is a miracle ?” “We don’t have a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the man said with a smile.
“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it is”
Another man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”
“I don’t know,” she answered .“He’s really sick and my mother says he needs an operation. But my father has no money for it, so I 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, you are lucky,” smiled the man. “$ 1.11 of a miracle for little brothers.”
He held the girl’s hand and said, “Take me to your home. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Maybe I have the kind of miracle you need.”
That man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a famous doctor. The operation was successful and Andrew got back home again soon.

One day a poor man was cutting a big piece of wood near a river. Suddenly his old axe(斧头) fell into the water. He felt very sad because he lost his only axe. Then all at once a beautiful fairy(仙女) came out and asked the man what was the matter.
“I have lost my axe.” he said. “It fell into the water when I was cutting the wood.” The fairy showed him a gold axe and asked, “Is this yours?” “No.” said the man.
The fairy then showed him a silver axe and asked again. “Is this yours?” “No.” again answered the man. Then she showed him the old axe.
“Yes, this is mine.” called out the happy man. “I know that well enough.” Said the fairy, “I only want to see if you can tell me the truth, and now I’ll give you the gold axe and the silver axe besides your own one.” The man with his old axe fell into the river.
The fairy came out and asked what was wrong with him.
The sad man only wanted the gold and silver axes.
The fairy found his lost axe for the man.
