As Christmas drew nearer, her desire for a bicycle seemed to fadeor so we thought, as she didn39。t mention it again. We bought the latest fashionable Baby Sitter39。s Club dolls, a holiday dress and some beautiful story books. Then, much to our surprise, on December 23rd, she proudly announced that she really wanted a bike more than anything else. It was just too late, what with all the details of preparing Christmas dinner and buying lastminute gifts. We could only think of the bicycle and the disappointment of our child.

Three hours later, on Christmas morning, we were excited for Rose to open the little heartshaped package with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note. Finally, she opened it and read the note aloud. She looked at me and then at her dad and said, so does this mean that I trade in this bike that Daddy made me for a real one? Beaming, I said, Yes.

A.He thought Rose was too young for a real bike.B.He didn39。t want to disappoint his daughter.C.He thought his daughter would like it.D.He wanted to give his daughter a surprise.(3)From the story, we know that ______.
