Several weeks ago, my friend advised us to sell some of our things which we will not use any more. I thought it was a good chance to 46 my 7-year-old son’s room and 47 some toys that were no longer suitable for him to play with. We 48 that all the money we got from selling the toys would be his money.
The night before the 49 , we loaded up the truck with toys and a little bike that was too 50 for him. In the yard he 51 the bike for the last time and then happily put it onto the truck. This little bike had at least two previous owners as far as we 52 . It wasn’t in the best 53 and was certainly not new, but the tires were 54 good.
We put a price of $10 on it, but it didn’t sell. So, after the sale was 55 , my friend put it on the sidewalk with a sign that 56 “FREE BIKE”. Within five minutes her doorbell rang. A little boy was 57 there. In poor English he asked whether the bike was 58 free. She said yes and that he could have it for 59 . He smiled, got on the bike and rode away.
Later that evening when I told my son how much money he had made at the sale, he was very 60 , shouting happily. He asked about a few of his things, wondering 61 they had been sold. When he asked about the bike, I told him about the little boy and that made him 62 . He was much happier than when I told him how much he had 63 . He was so happy to 64 that someone else would make good 65 of that little bike!

A 34-year-old mother has spoken of how she woke up thinking she was 15 years old and living in 1992.
Naomi Jacobs, from Manchester, was convinced she was still a teenager. In her mind, John Major was Prime Minister and George Bush Sr. was running the White House. She also showed how she screamed when a boy appeared and called her “Mum”. Mobile phones and e-mails were puzzling and Google, Facebook and YouTube sounded like made-up words, she said.
Ms. Jacobs, who had no memory of the years, was told by doctors that she had Transient Global Amnesia (TGA). She has now written a book about the experience which happened in 2008.
“I fell asleep in 1992 as a brave, very confident know-it-all-15-year-old, and woke up as a 32-year-old single mum living in a rented house,” Ms. Jacobs said. “The last thing I remember was falling asleep in my bed, dreaming about a boy in my class. When I woke up, I looked in the mirror and had the fright of my life when I saw an old woman with wrinkles staring back at me. Then a little boy appeared and started calling me Mum. That’s when I started to scream. I didn’t know who he was. I didn’t think he was much younger than I was, and I certainly didn’t remember giving birth to him. I began sobbing uncontrollably. I just wanted my mum. I couldn’t get my head around going to bed one night and waking up in a different century.”
TGA is a rare type of amnesia which can occur suddenly, affecting around three people per 100,000 each year. Fortunately, permanent memory loss is rare. Ms. Jacobs’ memory started to return after eight weeks.
Some people who often suffer from migraines (偏头痛) also appear to be more likely to have TGA. The cause of TGA is unknown. Some think that it may be caused by a temporary cut of blood flow to parts of the brain involved in memory.
