(A)
Ffh. Ffh. Ffh! It was not just the empty nest ( 鸟巢 ) of a pewee bird as Amy had found the last five days. Amy
ran home through the woods.
“Mum!” she shouted. “I see birds. Two. In cave ( 洞穴 ). Beautiful!”
Mum smiled. Birds! Always birds! From the moment Amy woke up in the morning to the moment she closed
her eyes at night, she thought only of birds.
Amy climbed straight to her attic room—her museum, she called it. Every shelf, every spare inch of floor, was

covered with nests, bird models and natural science books. The walls were covered with pencil and crayon
drawings of many different kinds of birds, all signed “Amy in the woods.”
“Are those the same birds who built the nest last year? Will they return to the cave next spring?” Amy always
wondered . “I will study my cave birds. I will draw them just as they are.” Amy made up her mind.
In a week, the birds were used to her. They were busy building their nest as Amy watched and drew with her
pencils. Soon the dried brown nest became a soft green bed.
Amy watched as two baby birds came out. She watched as the young birds flew for the first time. She began to
feel a part of this small family.
When the days grew shorter and the autumn air began to bite, Amy knew the birds would leave soon. But
would they come back? She had to know!
In bed that night, she formed a plan.
The next day, when the mother and father birds were away from the nest, she tied something to one leg of each
baby bird. A week later, the birds were gone. . .
The days grew longer again. One morning. Amy heard a bird call, “Fee-bee! Fee-bee!”
She ran to the cave. Watching the way the birds flew in and out of the cave, Amy knew her friends came back.
But where were last year’s babies? Did they return too? She began to search the woods near the cave, listening for
their call.
Inside a little house, she found two birds building a nest. One wore a silver ring around its leg. Up the small
river, under a bridge, she found two more nesting birds. And one wore a silver ring around its leg.
Amy smiled and called, “Fee-bee! Fee-bee!”

A. Where and how the birds spent winter.
B. Why the birds and their babies came back.
C. Whether the same birds would return.
D. How she could make friends with the birds.
27. What can we learn about Amy from her museum?
A. She often studied birds with her mother.
B. She had rich bird-watching experiences.
C. She liked drawing more than other hobbies.
D. She wanted to keep her hobbies as secrets.
28. How did Amy carry out her plan in the late autumn?
A. She marked each baby bird with a silver ring.
B. She separated the baby birds from their parents.
C. She cared for the birds and watched them grow.

Many people know that robots explore space and build things in factories. But
did you know that there are many other kinds of robots? Let’s meet some of these
robots and find out what they do.
Robot 1
If your family are moving to a new house, this two-legged robot is a good
helper. It can lift several heavy boxes and carry them to the moving truck before
returning inside for more. It has the ability to walk more carefully and skillfully than
other robots.
Robot 2
Powered by the sun, this robot works in a forest. It keeps an eye on everything
from animal movements to the forest’s temperature, then sends the information back
to the scientists. This robot can watch how the environment changes for a long
period of time, which is difficult for humans.
Robot 3
This pie-making robot is cutting a pie into pieces in the kitchen. It uses its arms
to do all the things human cooks might do when they make food. But it makes much
more food than human cooks. It can prepare a pie in 45 seconds and cook 80 pies an
hour. It even divides your pie and boxes it up.
Robot 4
This bright orange robot helps repair the machines under deep water. It can
reach the part which is too deep for a human diver. Humans program where the
robot should go and what it should do. This robot can also help humans explore the
sea and discover new living things. But it can’t work for long underwater.
