     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 an idea. He asked the neighbors if he
could mow (割) their lawns (草坪) to earn 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.
