Last Tuesday I took my two daughters, aged four and five, to town by1. It began to rain hard so I decided I would leave the children in the car before I went quickly into a shop. I2 the girls not to touch anything and told them I would be3 within a few minutes. Then I 4 all the doors and 5 them happily looking out of the window.

I returned to the car in less than five minutes but the girls had disappeared! I could hardly believe my eyes. The car doors were6 locked, the windows 7 shut and on the back seat were only two coats. I was8 and ran to the comer of the street where there was no9 of them. I rushed up to an10 lady nearby and asked 11 she had seen two small girls but she said" No". Feeling sick with fear, I sat on the driver's seat, and. 12to stop trembling (颤抖). Suddenly, I heard a merry laugh behind me. I got out of the car, ran round to open the boot (汽车后备箱) and there inside were two very red-faced and. 13 children. They had obviously pulled out the back seat, 14 behind it and then they were unable to push the seat forward again. With tears in my15, I leaned forward and pulled their ears.

A little girl heard her parents talking about her brother. He was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation (手术) could save him.

"Only a miracle(奇迹) can save him now," said her father. The little girl took out her money and counted (数) it carefully.

She hurried to a drugstore(药店) with the money.

"What do you want?" asked the salesman. "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 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 miracle does your brother need?"

"I don't know," she answered. "He's really sick and Mom says he needs an operation. 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. He took up the girl's hand and said, "Take me to where you live. Let's see if I have the kind of miracle you need."

That well-dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a famous doctor. The operation was successful and it wasn't long before Andrew was home again.

There is one really important lesson all children need to learn—it's the value of money, and1 hard it is to make money.

All 6-year-old Emmett wanted was a bike, but his father didn't want to 2 it to him easily.One day his father got a3 idea. The father told Emmett he needed to make money by 4 to buy one. Emmett got some old toys together and then 5 them outside. Finally, he made $70that day. He made 6 money to get his bike. The next day, they saw an ice cream machine(冰淇淋机) when they were walking around the supermarket. Emmett asked if he could get that first7 he could start his own business(生意) and make more money.

After a discussion(讨论) of the family 8 , Emmett's parents decided to help him with his business,9 he had to sell ice cream for at least one hour every Saturday. Then Emmett started his business 10 only a bag of ice and three flavours(口味)."The first time he made $12, then$17, then $25… Then he 11 some of the money buying new flavours. Now Emmett has 21flavours and he is 12 to save his money for college,"Emmett's mother said.

Many people on the Internet think both Emmett and his parents did a good 13 .

"Excellent job, Emmett! You should be a role model for other 14 of your age."

"Your son is admirable(可钦佩的), but you are more admirable for being so 15 parents. Ithink your son is going to be a good businessman when he grows up."
