because easy farther make able freedom
appear nothing weak nature flying
One day a man found a cocoon(茧) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly a small opening of it
appeared
1, and the butterfly made its way hard to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making
2 any progress. It seemed as if it had arrived as far as it could and it could go no farther
3.So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the rest of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out
easily
4. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body as well as very small and weak
5 wings when it came out of the cocoon.The man continued to watch the butterfly
because
6 he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment. And the wings would become larger and be able
7 to hold up the body to fly. But nothing
8 happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the
natural
9 rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be ready for flying
10. It must have a hard time getting through the small opening to get its freedom
11 from the cocoon.Sometimes, the difficulties we face are just what we need.

【解析】1. 句意为“茧上出现一个小开口”，时态为一般过去时，故填appeared；2. 固定搭配make progress，stop doing sth.（停止做某事），故填making；3. 句意为“它不能再往前走了”，用far的比较级farther；4. 修饰动词短语come out，需用副词，结合语境是“容易地出来”，故填easily；5. 与small并列形容翅膀，结合后文蝴蝶不能飞，可知是“虚弱的”，故填weak；6. 此处连接原因状语从句，表原因，故填because；7. 固定搭配be able to（能够），故填able；8. 结合转折语境，“什么都没发生”，故填nothing；9. 此处修饰名词rules，需用形容词，意为“自然的规则”，故填natural；10. 介词for后接动名词，结合语境是“准备飞行”，故填flying；11. 句意为“从茧里获得自由”，故填freedom。
