When I was about 12 years old, I really wanted a new bike! I __31__ my parents my birthday wish, but I knew there was little hope because my family could __32__ have that money.

　　On my birthday my parents told me they had my __33__ outside in the back yard. At once, I __34__ out to the yard. There was my bike, __35__ it wasn’t the bike that I thought it would be. This one was pink, old and worn with age. It was so __36__! I thought I __37__ my parents’ feelings because I could see the disappointment __38__ their faces and I was sure they could see it on mine. I __39__ the old bike and rode it, feeling __40__ that I had made my parents feel this way. So I put on a smile, rode as fast as I could and didn’ t __41__.

　　As time went by, I began to understand my parents gave me __42__ much more than just a rusty（生銹的）old bike. They gave me a life lesson about __43__. When you give something out of love, it doesn’ t matter what it is in fact. What matters is the love that is in it. I like to remember this __44__ because giving a gift is not about money. It’s about how much love you can feel from it. Do remember, a gift that __45__ two dollars isn’t any less valuable（有價值的）than one that costs one hundred dollars, or even more.
