that the Murray had dried up, not one drop of water left.
One morning I went down to the river to try and catch some fish when I saw my boat high and dry (搁浅)
on the bank. I rushed down the river and saw all mud-no water. The fish were just lying there, dying. I looked
up to see if my friend was there. There was the nest but no eagle (鹰) I called out to her with my special
whistle which I made out of steel.
Suddenly a big shadow came over to me and the eagle landed in her nest and gave her young the food she
was out getting while I whistled. But then I suddenly noticed she was getting thinner and had a bit of sheep"s
wool in the side of her talon (利爪). It was deadly quiet by the river bank, except for some sound from my dog.
And also I couldn"t see one native animal or bird.
When I walked inside the kitchen, Mum and Dad had sad looks on their faces. "It"s time for us to move,
son, because the river can no longer support us," said Dad. I ran out of the kitchen door with tears in my eyes,
and down to the river bank, to my favorite spot, I said goodbye to my eagle, crying.
When it was time to go, I saw my eagle fly up into the air with her chicks in her talons, going away to try
and find another home, just like us. | | 1. Owing to the fact that _____ the eagle looked thinner. | A. there was not enough food for her

It was a good joke to come up behind a naked boy, and push him into the pool. I made quite a habit of this
with boys of my own size or less.
One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool. He was no bigger than I was, so I thought
him a fair game. Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would not get wet,
I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great strength making its way
by fierce strokes (猛力地划) to the shore. I fled, but in vain. He overtook me, seized me violently, and threw
me into the deepest part of the pool. I soon climbed out on the other side, and found myself surrounded by a
crowd of younger boys. "Do you know what you have done?" they said, "It"s Amery; he is in Grade Six. He is
champion at gym, he has got his football honor."
I was frightened and felt ashamed. How could I tell his position when he was wrapped in a bath towel and
so small. He didn"t seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word, "My father, who is a great man, is
also small." At this he laughed, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I had better be
careful in the future, signified the incident was closed. | | 1. The writer thought Amery "a fair game" because the boy _____. | A. looked like an animal

knew I had a three-year-old daughter so she thought of me first. I told her I would 1 it if I could get some
nice things for my daughter, which I wouldn"t otherwise have been able to 2 .
When I met her father, he began to explain that he was 3 once too and that he would hate to 4 things
that could be very 5 . At first, he thought of taking everything to the Salvation Army but then he 6 to see
if anyone he knew could use them first.
When he was 7 me around, I saw a bed, a slide (滑板), a kitchen set and many other things that made
me surprised. As my eyes were wide and beginning to tear up a bit, he told me not to feel guilty. He said I
was 8 him by getting rid of them.
As I was looking around, I did feel guilty, but I tried to remain more grateful than guilty because he told
me to. Every time I tried to 9 him for giving my daughter all these 10 things, he would thank me right
back and was grateful that these toys would be put to good use.
So, sometimes when we are helped by others, the others that helped us are helped as a side-effect. In the
11 of charity, it makes sense to feel grateful, but guilt is just as normal, I know we could have lived without
a slide, which is why I do feel guilty, but I am grateful all the same because my daughter 12 enjoys all these
