A long time ago there was a very rich and powerful(权力的)king.

  All the people in his country were afraid of him. But was he happy? No. he was always ill and unhappy. His money and his power could not help him. The doctors in his country could not cure(治愈)him, either. He was so angry with them that he cut off their heads.

  One day two famous doctors from another country came to his palace.

  “If you can cure me and make me happy, said the king, I will give you all the gold.

  The first doctor examined(诊察)the king. He found nothing wrong with him.

  “You are a very healthy man,said the doctor. You only think you are ill and this makes yourself unhappy.

  The king was very angry when he heard this. He told his soldiers to cut off the doctor's head.

  The second doctor knew he had to be careful. Oh, king, you will be well if you wear the shoes of a man who is always happy, he said. The king was very pleased with his answer and thought that the doctor was very clever. He gave the doctor a bag of gold.

  The king asked hundreds of people if they were always happy. They all said they were sometimes happy and sometimes sad. At last he met a beggar(乞丐).The beggar said that he was always happy.

  “Give me your shoes quickly,said the king, and I will make you a very rich man.

When I was about 12 years old, I really wanted a new bike! I 31 my parents my birthday wish, and I knew 32 little hope because my family could hardly have that money.

33 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 34 I thought it would be. This one was pink, old and worn with age. It was so 35_! I thought I hurt my parents’ feelings because I could see the disappointment on their faces and I was sure they could see it on 36 . I got on the old bike and rode it, feeling bad that I had made my parents feel this way. So I put on a smile, rode as 37 as I could and didn’t look back...

As time went by, I began to understand I 38 something much more than just a rusty(生锈的)old bike. My parents gave me a life lesson about love. 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 story 39 giving a gift is not about money. It’s about how much love you can feel from it. Do 40 , a gift that costs two dollars isn’t any less valuable(有价值的)than one that costs one hundred dollars, or even more.
