“This nice tree near the garden is my home.” Bluebird said.
“Oh, no,” replied Crow. “I’d like to live in this tree. From here I can see when Mrs. Brown plants ______ seeds in the garden. Then I can fly ______ and eat them.”
“Let’s ask if any of our friends have an opinion about who should live in this tree,” said Bluebird. “Then we will ______ whose home it will be.”
First they saw Rabbit hop by.
“Who should live in this tree?” Crow asked in a loud ______ .
Rabbit said, “I like Bluebirds’ songs. I also like to eat the carrots from Mrs. Brown’s garden. Last year you ate all the seeds, so there were no carrots. I like you, Crow, ______ I think Bluebird should live in this tree.”
Next Bee buzzed (发出嗡嗡声) by.
“Who should live in this tree?” Crow asked.
“I ______ to say it, Crow, but I think Bluebird should,” Bee replied. “Last year you ate all the flower seeds. I can’t make honey ______ flowers.”
Crow thought for a moment. Then he said, “I understand, and this is ______ I will do. I will move to ______ tree down the lane (乡间小路). I will eat only seeds from the field. We will wait for Mrs. Brown’s garden to grow. Then we can all enjoy some carrots and honey together.”
