     One day a few years ago we had a guest of the uninvited variety. In fact, this uninvited guest was a
bird- a(n)   1   , to be more precise(精确地).

basketball," my wife, Anita, said. She paused and   2   more devotedly. "It"s coming from the   3   ." she
said. "Maybe it"s one of the little   4   ".
     We rushed out the door. Jonathan, our youngest, was easy to make   5   . "If he"s making holes in the
wall again…" I said as I searched there. No children at all. But there was that    6    again, coming from
right up there.
    And that"s when I   7    the sparrow. It was flying    8   just inches below the ceiling. It was clearly
trying to   9   , but couldn"t see that the way out wasn"t up, but down and out through the open   10   .
So the bird continued beating its wings and hitting its head against the   11   .
    "Poor thing," Anita said. "It must be   12   ."
    "Well, maybe it"s because of me," I said as I moved toward it. I tried to show the bird how to glide
(滑翔) down a few feet so it could get outside,    13   that only seemed to frighten it more.
    "Why don"t we just    14   ?" Anita suggested. "I"m sure he"ll    15    eventually."
    So we went back into the house, where we continued to hear the ongoing struggle. Then suddenly, it
was    16   . We looked into the garage, and our uninvited guest was   17   .
    "See?" Anita said. "I told you he would make it."
    "Yeah," I said. "But how many knocks on the head did it   18   him?"
     I"ve thought about that little sparrow through the years. Just like that sparrow, we often meet
situations we don"t know how to   19   . Born to go upward, we don"t    20   consider the possibility that
something good might happen if we stop flapping(拍打) around and just glide down a little bit.

阅读理解。
     A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same
words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairly stories as formal texts. It is always much
better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation
of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.
     A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad
thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have
read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, in
think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises
from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear
into the pleasure of a fear faces and mastered.
     There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true,
that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that , instead of being
fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I
find such people, I must say so peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were
sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick
or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girlfriend.
     No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever
believed that it was
1. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is_______
A. repeated without any change
B. treated as a joke
C. make some changes by the parents
D. set in the present
2. According to the passage, great fear can take place in a child when the story is _____.
A. in a realistic setting        
B. heard for the first time
C. repeated too often        
D. told in a different way
3. The advantage claimed (提出) for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it ______.
A. makes them less fearful        
B. develops their power of memory
C. makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid of
D. encourages them not to have strange beliefs
4. The author"s mention of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that _______.
A. fairy stories are still being made up
B. there is some misunderstanding about fairy tales
C. people try to modernize old fairy stories
D. there is more concern for children"s fears nowadays
5. One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that ______.
A. they are full of imagination
B. they just make up the stories which are far from the truth
C. they are not interesting
D. they make teachers of history difficult to teach
