The birds of the forest had no king. All the birds thought they needed a king. But who would be the king? One said, "Let the bird who flies the highest be the king." Everyone agreed. Eagle (老鹰) heard that and asked, "Why not make me the king now? I can fly the highest."
" ▲ " said Sparrow (麻雀).
"Oh! Who's going to beat me? You?" Eagle laughed.
Owl started the race. When everyone was ready,Owl cried,"Whoo, whoo!"All the birds took to the air.
But they could not fly very high and fast for long. One by one,they dropped out of the race. Only Eagle went on flying.
"High, high... I'm the king in the sky..."he sang. He looked down and found all the birds giving up.
But Eagle did not know that little Sparrow was flying under one of his wings (翅膀) all the way. The time he stopped, Sparrow flew out. He flew just over the Eagle's head and cried out,"No,no,no,Mr Eagle. I'm the king of the birds. Look! I am now flying higher than you."
All the birds were very surprised to see Sparrow fly higher. They wanted Sparrow as their king. Eagle did not like this at all. So he caught Sparrow and threw him to the ground.
Sparrow got hurt,and half of his tail (尾巴) was cut off. From then on,Sparrow had a short tail.

这是一篇关于鸟类选国王的寓言类阅读理解，解题思路如下：1. 细节理解题：定位原文中选国王的标准，直接匹配选项；2. 推理判断题：结合上下文老鹰的自大和麻雀的反驳意图，选择符合语境的句子；3. 排序题：梳理故事发展的先后顺序，对应情节出现的先后；4. 词义猜测题：结合语境中鸟类退出比赛的描述，推测短语含义；5. 主旨大意题：把握全文围绕“谁是鸟王”展开的核心，选择最佳标题。
【解析】
1. 细节理解题：根据原文第一段“Let the bird who flies the highest be the king.”可知，飞得最高的鸟能当国王，对应选项C。
2. 推理判断题：前文老鹰自大表示自己飞得最高要当国王，后文麻雀要参与比赛反驳，因此此处麻雀应表达“你可能不能当国王”，对应选项B。

4. 词义猜测题：原文提到其他鸟无法长时间飞行，一个个退出比赛，“dropped out of”意为“退出”，对应选项A（Left，离开/退出）。
