     Picky, Picky
     Scientists have no idea exactly why birds choose certain objects to build their nests. But scientists know
that the main reason birds build nests is to keep their babies safe, warm and healthy. Baby birds grow faster
and are healthier when they are warm. They also learn to fly and leave the nests sooner than birds without
warm homes.   
     What A Yarn (紗)
      Yarn is big on an oriole's shopping list during nest building. Scientists are still trying to work out why
so many birds choose white yarn over other colors for nest building. Scientists think that the white objects
remind birds of cotton fluff (絨毛) they find in the wild.
     Do It Naturally
     Even though birds can help us recycle some of our junk by using it to build nests, they also need to use
lots of natural things. Long grass, dried sticks, spider's silk and mud are some of the natural ingredients that
are good for nests, too.
     You can make a collection box of things to leave for birds so they can help themselves. Hang a small
plastic box with holes on a tree branch. Fill the box freely with nest building goodies. Hang the box on a tree
and watch birds climb on board to pick through the junk to find their treasures.
     Warning: Don't let the birds turn into a tasty treat. Keep your bird station away from places where cats
hang out.
     For The Birds! Stop!
     Don't throw all that garbage out! Give some to the birds. Look and see how your old junk can help
beautify and warm a bird's new home.
1. The baby birds with warm homes are able to _____.
A. choose right objects
B. leave the nests sooner
C. build good nests
D. learn to fly higher
2. What can people make for birds to build nests?
A. Holes on the tree.
B. Food out of the rubbish.
C. A warning board.
D. A collection box of things.
3. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Birds build nests to store things.
B. Birds regard white objects as cotton.
C. Birds and humans can help each other.
D. Birds and cats fight against each other.

       There is always something that we can never forget. And it can really change our life. 
       Time is important for everyone. It organizes our everyday moments. However, ①before I received
a watch from my father, time never had any importance in my life. It organized my life and made me more
responsible. 
       I received this gift on a Sunday. I had to go to the airport at 9:00 am to pick up Uncle Jim and take
him to my father’s house. However, I was late because I hung out with my friends. Later on that day,
around 11:00 am, I remembered my uncle and went to the airport to meet him, but I was too late. He had
left the airport and taken a taxi to my father’s house.

Then he said, "Bob, did you have fun with your friends today?" "Yes, Father, and I’m sorry about not
picking up Uncle Jim," I replied. He then said, "What you did was not very nice and you should be sorry
for your actions. I think you should learn something from it, and this watch will be a reminder for you in
your future life." ③ The watch is very important to me, not because of its price, but because of the lesson
that I learned from it. 
       Today I still remember my father’s words"Respect time and never be late for anything."
