When I was 10 years old, I really wanted a new bike! I 1 my parents my birthday wish, but I knew there was little hope 2 my family is poor. My parents could 3 have that money.
On my birthday my parents told me they had my 4 outside in the back yard. I 5 out quickly to the yard right now. There was my bike, 6 it wasn't the bike that I thought it would be. This one was pink, old with age. 7 disappointing(令人失望的) I was! I thought I hurt(伤害)my parents' feelings because I could see the disappointment(失望) 8 their faces, and I was sure they could see it on mine. Although I was 9 , I got on the old bike and rode it. Also, I put on a smile(微笑), rode as fast as I could and didn't 10 .
As time went by, I began to know my parents gave me 11 much more than just an old bike. They gave me a life lesson about 12 . By now, I still remember this 13 because giving a gift is not about money. It's about 14 love you can feel from it. Do remember, the value(价值) of a 15 that costs two dollars isn't less than that of a gift costs one hundred dollars, or even more.
