Some say everyday miracles(奇跡)are predestined (注定的) - the right time for the appointed meeting.And it can happen anywhere.
In 2001,11-year-old Kevin Stephan was a bat boy for his younger brother's Little League team in Lancaster,New York.It was an early evening in late July.Kevin was standing on the grass away from the plate,where another youngster was warming up for the next game.Swinging his bat back and forth,giving it all the power an elementary school kid could give.The boy brought the bat back hard and hit Kevin in the chest.His heart stopped.
When Kevin fell to the ground,the mother of one of the players rushed out of the stands to his aid.Penny Brown hadn't planned to be there that day,but at the last minute,her shift(換班)at the hospital had been changed to see her son's performance.She was given the night off.Penny bent over the senseless boy,his face already starting to turn blue,giving CPR,breathing into his mouth and giving chest compression.And he revived in the end.
After his recovery,he became a volunteer junior firefighter,learning some of the emergency first-aid techniques that had saved his life.He studied hard in school and was saving money for college by working as a dishwasher in a local restaurant in his spare time.
Kevin,now 18,was working in the kitchen when he heard people screaming,customers in confusion,employees rushing toward a table.He hurried into the main room and saw a woman there,her face turning blue,her hands at her throat.She was choking.
Quickly Kevin stepped behind her,wrapped his arms around her and clasped his hands.Then,using skills he'd first learned in Scouts.The food that was trapped in the woman's throat was freed.The color began to return to her face.
"The food was stuck.I couldn't breathe, " she said.She thought she was dying. "I was very frightened."
Who was the woman?
Penny Brown.

3.I remember my math teacher Mr.Young very well.He stood out because the kids made fun of him.He was missing one of his fingers,and always pointed at students with his middle finger.
I was not very good at English and math.No matter how hard I tried,I just could not figure out why I did not understand what all the other kids found so easy to learn.
One day,I was told that if I got one more E on my report card,I would be taken to the "big prison for kids".
I tried really hard for weeks.I just couldn't understand how to make different parts of members into whole things.
The day before report cards were to come out,I knew that Mr.Young would give me an E,just like he always did.
I went to Mr.Young and told him that the orphanage (孤兒院) was going to send me to the big prison if I got another E on my report card.He told me there was nothing he could do;it would be unfair to the other kids if he gave me a better grade than I had actually earned.
I smiled at him and said, "Mr.Young,do you know how the kids make fun of you because you're missing your finger?" He looked at me,moved his mouth to one side and said nothing.
"They shouldn't do that to you because you can't help not having a finger,Mr.Young.Just like I can't help not being able to learn numbers and stuff like that." I said.
The next day,when I got my report card,I tucked it into one of my books.While on the school bus,I opened it:Geography,B+;Mechanical Drawing,C-;English,D-;History,C-;Gym,B+;Art,C;Math,D-.
That math grade was the most favorite one I ever received.Because I knew that someone in the world finally understood what it was like for me to be missing a finger inside my head.
