Mike was starting the fourth grade in the autumn．He felt that he was old enough to ride a bike to school like other kids．But there were two problems! The first was that he didn't know if his parents would let him ride a bike to school．The second and the bigger of the two problems was that he didn’t have a bike，because he and his parents had just moved to the town this summer．

    Mike started to get over his problems．First，he asked his parents if they would let him ride a bike to school in the autumn．To his surprise，they said，”Sure，Mike，you are old enough, but you don’t have a bike!” Mike began to think about how to solve the problem Finally，he thought of on idea．He asked the neighbors if he could mow（割） their lawns（草坪）to earn（賺得）money to buy a bike．For all of them needed to mow their lawns，they told Mike that would be fine，if his parents agreed．Mike’s parents were pleased that he found a way to buy a bike himself．They agreed and taught Mike how to mow the lawn properly．Finally，he had enough money to buy his bike．He bought a beautiful black and red mountain bike．
