It was at least two months before Christmas when nine-year-old Almie Rose told her father and me that she wanted a new bicycle. As Christmas was nearer, her dream for a bicycle seemed to fade (消退). We bought her a lovely doll, and a doll house. Then, much to our surprise, on December 23rd, she said that “I really want a bike more than anything else.”
It was just too late. With such a lot of preparations to do for the Christmas dinner, we did not have the time to buy our little girl a bike. On Christmas Eve around 9:00 p.m., Almie and her six-year-old brother, Dylan, were sleeping in their beds. Now we could only think of the bicycle and the sadness of our child. “What if I make a little bicycle out of clay (泥) and write a note that she could exchange the clay bike for a real bike?” her dad asked. So he spent the next four hours making a small clay bike.
On Christmas morning, we were excited to wait for Almie to open the little gift box with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note. Finally, she opened it and read the note aloud. “Does this mean that I can exchange this bike that Daddy made me for a real one?” I said, “Yes.” Almie had tears in her eyes when she replied, “I could never exchange this beautiful bicycle that Daddy made me. I want to keep this instead of getting a real bike.” At that moment, we would have moved heaven and earth (竭尽全力) to buy her every bicycle in the world.

B.Tears were in the girl’s eyes because she didn’t like the present at all.
