Helen loved small animals. One morning while she was walking in the forest, she found two weak birds in the grass. She took them home and put them in a small cage. She looked after them with love and the birds both grew well. They thanked her with a wonderful song every morning.

But something happened one day. Helen left the door of the cage open. The larger bird flew from the cage. She thought that it would fly away, so she grasped it. She was very excited to catch it. Suddenly she felt strange. She opened her hand and looked sadly at the dead bird. Her great love had killed the bird!

The other bird was moving back and forth (来回地) in the cage. Helen could feel the bird want to go out. It wanted to fly into the blue sky. At once, Helen took the bird out of the cage and let it fly away. The bird circled, twice, three times…

Helen enjoyed watching the bird flying and singing happily. Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her head. It sang the sweetest song that she had ever heard.

The easiest way to lose love is to hold too tight. The best way to keep love is to give it freedom.

九年级英语完型填空困难题查看答案及解析

While walking outside one morning, I saw the most beautiful thing. It was early, and I was walking on dewy（带露水的）grass down to the office. Suddenly a flash came out straight from the ground, about 15 feet in front of me, and shot up into the sky. I stopped. 　 ①　 What could make such a bright light? Could it be a diamond（钻石）？I waited to see if it would repeat, but it didn't.

I walked slowly toward it, but saw nothing. I looked down at the grass, searching for gold or some kind of metal - again, nothing. 　 ②　 Suddenly, I saw it. The rising sun hit the grass' dewdrop(露珠）at the perfect way, sending great light into the sky. It was as if I had just discovered a tiny new world and it was just the unseen world that was giving me a heads-up, "Hello, look at what's around you," it said. I've never forgotten that moment.

So next time you're out, take some time to notice nature, whose beauty most of us never even see. Look at the beautiful colors and different small flowers that cover playing fields—we walk all over them without a second look. 　 ③　 Watch a bee dancing, or tiny ants going on their way, or birds singing in the sky. All of these natural living things are amazing—if only we took the time to notice them.

Have an eye for nature, and you'll find a new secret each day to keep in your heart. 　 ④__ It's one of the most wonderful things I've ever done.

1.Why did the writer stop walking to the office at first?

A.Because he saw a bright light. B.Because he saw a diamond.

C.Because he saw a new world. D.Because he saw a dewdrop.

2.In which place can we put this sentence "I dropped down to my knees for a closer look."?

A.① B.② C.③ D.④

3.What's the purpose（目的）of the passage?

A.To warn us not to grow such kind of grass. B.To describe the writer's wonderful life.

C.To express the writer's love to a dewdrop. D.To encourage us to admire the nature.

4.Which might be the best title of the passage?

A.A Dewdrop B.My Secret C.Quick Moments D.The Grass
