When I was about 12 years old， I really wanted a new bike!（1） ， but I knew there was little hope because my family could hardly afford it．
On my birthday my parents told me they had my gift outside in the back yard． At once I rushed out to the yard． There was my bike， but it wasn't the bike that I thought it would be． This one was pink， old and worn with age． It was so disappointing! I thought I hurt my parents' feelings because I was sure they could see the disappointment on my face．（2） ， riding as fast as I could and didn't look back．
As time went by， I began to understand that my parents gave me something much more than just a rusty （生锈的） old bike．（3） ． When you give something out of love， it doesn't matter what it is． What matters is the love that is in it．
I like to remember this story because giving a gift is not about money．（4）． ． Remember this： a gift that costs 2 isn't any less valuable than one that costs 100．
