谁都爱买便宜货，买到便宜货，或者买到超值的东西，谁会不喜欢？而且你还有可能免费得到自己心仪的商品哟……A few weeks ago，my friend had a yard sale. I thought it would help to clean my 9-year-old son’s room. We agreed that whate ver we sold in toys would be his money.The night before the sale, we put toys on the truck as we as a little bike that was too short for my son now. This little bike had at least 2 owners before it came to my son. It was not in the best shape and it certainly was not shiny new but it was still a bike, and the tires (轮胎）were still 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 said “FREE BIKE”. Within five minutes，a little girl was standing there. She asked if the price of the bike was really free. My friend said yes. The girl smiled and rode away quickly.Later that evening when I told my son how much money he had made at the yard sale, he smiled. When he asked about the bike, I told him that a little girl was very happy because she got the bike for free. The grin(咧嘴笑）on my son’s face was much more than when I told him how much he had made. He was so thrilled to hear that someone else would get good use of that little bike.The bike was given to us, so in this way, I guess we got to pay it forward！根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。
