The night before the 29 , we loaded up the truck with toys and a little bike that was too 30 for him. In the yard he 31 the bike for the last time and then happily put it onto the truck. This little bike had at least two previous（以前的） owners as far as we 32 . It wasn’t in the best 33 and was certainly not new, but the tires were 34 good.
We put a price of $10 on it, but it didn’t sell. So, after the sale was 35 , my friend put it on the sidewalk, with a sign that 36 “FREE BIKE”. Within five minutes her doorbell rang. A little boy was 37_ there. In poor English he asked whether the bike was 38 free. She said yes and that he could have it for 39 . 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 40 , shouting happily. He asked about a few of his things, wondering 41 they had been sold. When he asked about the bike, I told him about the little boy and that made him 42 . He was much happier than when I told him how much he had 43 . He was so happy to 44 that someone else would make good 45 of that little bike!

So they tossed（掷）a coin. Albrecht Durer, the younger, 43 the toss and went off to Nuremberg .Albert went down into the dangerous 44 and ,for the next four years ,financed his brother , who did so well that his works were even better than those of most of his 45. By the time he graduated ,he was beginning to earn 46 fees by drawing for wealthy people.
When Albrecht returned home, at dinner he drank a 47 to his beloved brother for the years of 48 that had enabled him to fulfill his 49. He said, "Albert ,my blessed brother ,now it is your 50 to go to Nuremberg to pursue your dream ,and I will take care of you."
With tears in his eyes ,Albert held his hands close to his right cheek and said, "No ,brother. I cannot go . Look... look what four years in the mines have done to my 51 ! The bones in every finger have been 52 at least once. Lately I have been suffering from arthritis（关节炎）so badly in my right hand that I cannot even hold a 53to return your toast ,much less make delicate lines with a pen or a brush. No ,brother... for me it is too 54 ."
Deeply moved ,Albrecht painstakingly drew his brother's 55 hands with palms together and thin fingers stretched skyward .He called his powerful drawing 56 "Hands" , to which the entire world immediately opened their hearts and later they 57it "The Praying Hands."
