四、信息还原
Sarah the seagull(海鸥) and her mum lived in New York by the sea.
Every day Sarah and her mum would fly over the waves, diving in to eat the small fish that swam in the shallow(浅的) water. Sometimes people would feed Sarah and her mum a sandwich or some potato chips. They always had a lot to eat. At night, Sarah and her mum would rest under the roof of a nearby building. 1
But one day it started to get colder. It was a lot harder to find the little fish that were always swimming in the waves. 2 So no one was there to feed Sarah and her mum any sandwiches or chips.
“It is time to fly south for the winter,” said Sarah's mum. “Why?” asked Sarah. “Because it has got too cold here,” explained Sarah's mum. “There is no food, and it will soon get even colder.” Sarah said, “3” “Don't worry,” said Sarah's mum. “We will come back when it is warm again. We are birds. We can change where we live and still be happy. We can have more than one home.”
So Sarah and her mum said goodbye to the beach and flew away. They flew and flew, until they were out of the cold and back into the warm weather. They flew all the way to Miami, Florida.
There, they found a new beach where the sea was filled with fish, and there were lots of people to give them sandwiches and chips. 4
“I like this new home,” said Sarah. “It is warm, and we have food. This is a nice place too.”
“I told you it would be nice,” said Sarah's mum. “And when it gets warmer in New York again, we will go back. 5 We can fly to new places whenever we want.”
