Reading

上个月，我带儿子汤姆去乡下看他的祖父母。他爷爷带他去院子里玩。汤姆对一切都很好奇。

午饭时，汤姆告诉我："爸爸，我看见一只母鸡在飞。"

"不可能!"我不假思索地说："母鸡怎么会飞呢？"

"爸爸，狗在院子里追母鸡。这只母鸡是角落里的trapped。当母鸡看不到其他出路时，她突然扇动翅膀（翅膀)然后飞向屋顶（房顶).母鸡逃跑了。爸爸，我不知道母鸡会飞。她怎么会飞？"我的孩子问。

我想了一会儿，说："可能是因为爱情吧。母鸡热爱自己的生活，这有助于她飞翔!"

汤姆点点头。他似乎已经明白了。

上周末，我们再次拜访了汤姆的祖父母。这次我听到汤姆在院子里大喊："爸爸！狗又在追母鸡了！快来看看!"

我跑出了房子。
