“We don’t sell a miracle here. 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?”

When Mark Zuckerberg declared (宣布) the death of email last November, many people laughed at him. Now new figures show that the Facebook founder（創(chuàng)辦者）may be right.
According to recent research, millions of Britons, mainly under-25s, are using social networking sites instead of email.
The three most popular services in the UK—Yahoo Mail, Gmail and Hotmail, have all seen a fall in the number of people visiting their sites since October, 2009.
Younger consumers prefer the instant messaging. Websites such as Facebook also let users know if their friends are also online, so they will know if their message has been received. This helps explain why Facebook has attracted 1.3 million more members since January, 2010, while there are 320,000 more people on Twitter.
A PC magazine writer said email had become useless to many, “?People change their email address too often, so others can’t contact them,”?He said, “?What’s more, our email boxes are often filled with so much spam（垃圾郵件）that the users have to give the address up.”
