【推荐1】One day, Tom, a cat, was really bored. He was walking around the yard when he happened to meet a bird called Andy that was singing in her cage (笼子). Tom was a little hungry then, so he had a bad idea: He would catch the bird out of her cage, so he could have a wonderful meal.

He walked up to Andy and said proudly, “Miss Bird, do you know how wonderful the outside world is? Do you want to be free? There’s so much delicious food. The scenery in nature is very beautiful. Why not come outside and have a look?” After hearing Tom’s words, Andy thought she should go outside and live her life, so she flew out without thinking twice. The minute Andy flew out of the cage, Tom quickly caught the bird and was ready to enjoy his meal.

At that moment, Andy’s owner came back and saw Andy was just in Tom’s mouth. He shouted at Tom, and then began to run after him. At once Tom ran away. But the cat couldn’t run faster than the man after all. Finally, Tom was caught. He was afraid and opened his mouth. The bird flew away through the window. Just then, Andy’s owner was still holding Tom in his hand. He seemed even angrier because his bird was off. Then the man put Tom into the cage where Andy once stayed.
