試題分析：這篇短文主要講述了圓鳥因為體圓翅小不會飛，可是又希望能和其它鳥一樣在天空翱翔。于是它反復(fù)練習(xí)，但是于事無補。經(jīng)過思考之后，它認識到了特別的鳥可以做特別的事的道理。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文描述，并結(jié)合“He has a big round body but with little wings.”可知，B、C、D的敘述不符合原文內(nèi)容，而圓鳥翅膀小是事實，故選A。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文“he tries again and again”以及“He practices many times and flap some more, but they don’t work! In the end, he climbs down the tree and starts thinking seriously.”的描述可知，圓鳥為了能夠使自己飛起來，刻苦練習(xí)，而且善于思考。故選C。

【3】句義猜測題。聯(lián)系上下文可知，此處指的是圓鳥為了飛翔而努力的擺動翅膀。故選A，擺動。

【4】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文最后一句Then the only job for the Round Bird is to find those special things that only special birds like him can do.描述可知，我們應(yīng)該找適合自己的事情去做。結(jié)合選項可知應(yīng)選D。
