One day，I saw some children trying to catch butterflies.This made me think of my own childhood.
When I was a boy of 12 in South Carolina，we lived near a forest，and every evening mockingbirds(知更鸟) would come to the trees and sing.I was so interested in watching birds.I planned to catch a bird and keep her in a cage so that I could hear her sing at any time.
I finally caught one.On the second day，the bird's mother flew to the cage with food in her mouth.The baby ate everything her mother brought her.I was glad to see this.The following morning when I went to see my mockingbird，I was surprised to find she was dead in the cage！How sad I was!
When Arthur Wayne，a famous ornithologist(鸟类学家)，visited my father，he heard my crying and told me，“If a mother mockingbird finds her young baby in a cage，she will bring poisonous(有毒的) food to the baby.She thinks that it is better for her child to die than to live in a cage.”
Since then，I never caught any animals and put them in a cage.All living animals have a right(权利) to live free.

One day last summer, watching the boys and girls trying to catch butterflies, I remembered something happened when I was young. When I was a boy of 12 in South Carolina, something happened to me that stopped me forever from wanting to put any wild creature in a cage.
We lived on the edge of a wood, and every evening the mockingbirds(模仿鸟) would come and rest in the trees and sings. 1. I decided that I would catch a young bird and keep it in a cage and in that way would have my own private musician.
2. At first, the bird flew about the cage, but eventually it settled down in its new home. I felt very pleased with myself and looked forward to some beautiful singing from my tiny musician.
I had left the cage out, and on the second day my new pet’s mother flew to the cage with food in her mouth. The baby bird ate everything she brought to it. 3.
Certainly the mother knew better than I about how to feed her baby.
The following morning when I went to see how my bird was doing, I discovered it on the floor of the cage, dead. I was shocked! What had happened! 4.
Arthur Wayne, the famous ornithologist(鸟学家), happened to be visiting my father at the time. Hearing me crying over the death of my bird, he explained what had occurred. “A mother mockingbird, finding her young in a cage, will sometimes bring it poisonous(有毒的)berries(干果). 5. ”
Never since then have I caught any living creature and put it in a cage. All living creatures have a right to live free.
A. I had taken good care of my little bird.
B. I finally succeeded in catching one and put it in a cage.
C. I was pleased to see this.
D. No musician can sing more beautiful than the birds.
E. She thinks it better for her young to die than to live in cage.

One day, I went to see my last patient, an old woman. In the doorway, I saw she was trying to put socks on her feet. I stepped in and spoke quickly to the nurse. I was almost in the clear that she was not in serious condition.
I asked, Could I help put on your socks? How are you feeling? Your sugars and blood pressure were high but they are better today. The nurse mentioned you’re anxious to see your son. He’s visiting you today. It’s nice to have a family visit. I think you really look forward to seeing him."
“Sit down, doctor. This is my story, not yours.” She said in a serious voice.
I was surprised as I helped her with the socks. She told me that her only son lived around the comer from her, but she had not seen him in five years. She believed that was the main cause of her health problems. After hearing her story and putting on her socks, I asked if there was anything else I could do for her. She shook her head and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen.
Each story is different. Some are detailed; others are simple. Some have a beginning, middle and end; others don’t have clear ends. Some are true; others not. Yet all those things do not really matter. What matter to the story teller is that the story is heard—without interruption(打断) or judgment(评价).
It was that woman who taught me the importance of stopping, sitting down and truly listening. And, not long after, in an unexpected accident, I became a patient. 20 years later, I sit all the time—in a wheelchair.
For as long as I could. I continued to see patients from my chair. I believe in the power of listening.
1.How did the doctor know that the old woman’s son was visiting her?
A. The doctor got it from her chart noting.
B. The old woman told him.
C. The woman’s son told him.
D. The nurse told him.
2.What did the old woman think caused her health problems?
A. Her son’s not seeing her.
B. No one listening to her story.
C. The medical care of the hospital.
D. The distance between her house and her son’s.
3.When the patient told the doctor her stories, what she needed might be ___________.
A. keeping smiling
B. interruption or judgment
C. being listened without interruption
D. communicating with each other
4.What can we learn from the story?
A. We should live far from our parents.
B. The doctors should take care of the patients.
C. We should try to be a good listener.
D. We should be brave and patient when facing difficulties.
