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 left. When she heard her daddy say to her 1 mother with whispered desperation（绝望）, “ 2 a miracle（奇迹） can save him now”, the little girl went to her bedroom and took out her piggy bank. She 3 all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Then she 4 her way six blocks to the local drugstore（药店）.
“And what do you want?” asked the chemist.
“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．I’m sorry,” the chemist said, smiling 9 at the little girl.
In the shop was a 10 customer. He stooped (弯腰) 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 surgeon（外科医生）. The operation was completed without 18 and it wasn’t long before Andrew was 19 again and doing well.
The little girl was happy. She knew exactly how much the miracle cost ... one dollar and eleven cents ... plus the 20 of a little child.

1．A 看到儿子病重，家里又花光了钱，因此母亲伤心，选 “眼含泪水的” 符合逻辑。2．C 下文有提示，只有出现奇迹才能救孩子的命。此处是 “只有”，而不是 “仅仅”，故不选A或B。3．D 从储蓄罐里把零花钱 “倾倒” 出来符合语境。4．B make one’s way to... “向……走去”。5．C 此处表示目的或对象，故用介词for。6．D 前后文都有提示，小孩用自己的零花钱去买 “奇迹”，符合小孩的性格特点。7．A 弟弟病重，因此是头里长了 “坏的”东西。Extra “额外的”，不符合小孩的语言特点和认知水平。8．C 药店里是 “卖” 药，而不是卖 “奇迹”。9．B 药剂师已经了解了小女孩弟弟的情况，但不能帮助小女孩，因此 “伤心地” 微笑。10．A 下文有提示，这儿刚刚出现这位 “穿着体面的” 顾客，不能马上断定他是 “好心的”，故不选B。11．B 这位顾客不明白小女孩的弟弟需要什么样的奇迹，故有此问。12．C 前面出现了小女孩的弟弟头中长了 “坏” 东西的信息，后面有提示，因此小女孩知道需要 “手术” 才能救弟弟的命。A项 “医生” 太笼统，B项 “外科医生”，概念太专业，超出了小女孩的认知水平。13．A 从后面这位顾客问小女孩有多少钱，可得出答案，小女孩告诉对方把自己所有的 “积蓄” 都带来了。14．D 前后应该是转折关系。15．B 此处这位顾客了解了小女孩的用意，故幽默地说：1美元11分钱 “正好” 是买一个奇迹的钱，说明这位顾客决定帮助小女孩的弟弟。16．C 这位顾客要到小女孩 “带”他去她家里去。17．D 这位顾客要去“见见”小女孩的父母，以便进一步了解情况。18．C 说明Dr Carlton Armstrong富有爱心，无偿地为小女孩的弟弟做了手术，因此是没有收费。其他选项不合题意。19．D 小女孩的弟弟不久就回了家痊愈了，注意此选项与后面doing well的并列关系，其他三个选项与doing well在意义上重复。20. B 用1美元11分钱买来奇迹，反映了小女孩的 “信念”，其他的不合题意。
