If you want to learn something about birds please read the book“1001 Questions Answered About Birds”. But which chapter or part of the book you’d better read depends on what you are interested in. If you are interested in how many kinds of birds there are, please read The Classification of Birds. If you want to know something about where some kinds exist, where other kinds exist and the spreading out of birds’ existing, do read The Distribution of Birds. Leaving one place for another is called migration. “Internal”refers to the inside while “external”refers to the outside. If you catch a bird and put a mark on it before setting it free, it is bird banding. People make and put boxes in trees for birds to stay in certain woods, which is bird attracting. To protect birds from being harmed is called bird conservation. Stories about unknown secrets are mythology while old and general accepted ways are called tradition. To study how birds get used to their surroundings is to study their adaptability.

閱讀下列短文,從所給的四個選項中,選出最佳答案。
Dwight W. Morrow was an American ambassador (大使) to Mexico during the 1920s. He is remembered as a smart diplomat (精明的外交家). He is also remembered by his family and friends for one of his absent-mindedness (心不在焉).
Once while on a train, a conductor came to Morrow, asking for his ticket. He began to search his pockets. No ticket appeared. Morrow began searching his suitcase (行李箱). "Never mind, sir," said the conductor, seeing how anxious Morrow was becoming and trying to comfort him. "When you find your ticket just post it to the station. I'm sure you have it somewhere."
"I'm sure, too," said the diplomat as he continued his search. "But I must find it. I need to know where I'm going!"
