A couple of weeks ago, my friend offered to sell some of our things for us. I thought it was a good chance to clean my 7-year-old son’s room and _____ some toys that were no longer suitable for him to play with. We _____ that all the money we got from selling the toys would be his money.

The night before the sale, we loaded up the truck with toys and a little bike that was too _____ for him. In the yard he _____ 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 knew. It wasn’t in the best _____ and was certainly not new, but the tires(轮胎) were _____ good.

We put a price of $10 on it, but it didn’t sell. So, after the sale was over, my friend put it on the sidewalk, with a sign that _____ “FREE BIKE”. In five minutes her doorbell rang. A little boy was _____ there. In poor English he asked whether the bike was _____ free. She said yes and that he could have it for ______. 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 ______, shouting happily. He asked about a few of his things, wondering ______ they had been sold. When he asked about the bike, I told him about the little boy and that made him ______. He was much happier than when I told him how much he had ______. He was so happy to hear that someone else would make good ______ of that little bike!
