脑阔要爆炸
• Family Crisis: Amy overhears her parents discussing their dire situation—Tom is very sick, the family has run out of money, and they cannot afford both his medical bills and their house payment. Her father despairingly remarks that "only a miracle can save him now." • Amy s Determination: Taking her father s words literally, Amy goes to her bedroom, retrieves her hidden glass jelly jar full of coins, and carefully counts her savings three times. She then walks six blocks to a local drugstore, believing she can purchase a miracle for her brother. • At the Drugstore: The pharmacist is busy talking to another man and ignores Amy despite her attempts to get his attention. Finally, she bangs a quarter on the glass counter to interrupt him. When the annoyed pharmacist asks what she wants, Amy earnestly replies that her brother is "really, really sick" and she wants to buy a miracle. • The Pharmacist s Reaction: The pharmacist is stunned and confused by her innocent request, responding with "I beg your pardon?"
