Only a very expensive operation could save him now and it was looking like there was no one to _______ them the money. She heard her Dad say to her Mom, “Only a miracle (奇迹) can save him now.” So she decided to do something for her brother by herself.

Back to her bedroom, Tess pulled out a glass jar, took all the coins out on the floor and counted them carefully. No chance here for mistakes. With the jar in her hands, she went out the back door _______ and walked a long way to a drug store.

Tess waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some _______ but he was too entirely talking to a well-dressed man.

Finally the pharmacist _______ Tess. “And what do you want?” the pharmacist asked. “I’m talking to my brother whom I haven’t seen for ages,” he explained. “Well, I want to talk to you about my brother,” Tess answered back. “He’s really, really sick... and I want to buy a miracle.”

“I beg your pardon?” said the pharmacist. “His name is Andrew and he is badly ill and my Dad says only a miracle can save him now.” Tess explained, “So how much does a miracle _______?” Hearing this, the pharmacist was too confused to say a word.

“How much do you have?” asked the man. “One dollar and eleven cents.” Tess answered.
