One day a lonely girl found two weak birds while she was walking in the woods (树林). She took them
home and put them in a small cage. She fed them with love and the birds grew strong. Every morning they
greeted her with a beautiful song. The girl loved them very much and wanted their singing to last forever.
One day the girl left the cage's door open. The larger and stronger of the two birds flew out of the cage.
The girl watched worriedly as it circled (盘旋) high above her. She was afraid that it would fly away and she
would never see it again. So when it flew close, she grasped (抓) at it wildly. She was very happy that she
held it tightly within her hand! Suddenly, she felt something had happened to the bird. She opened her hand
and was surprised to find the bird was dead. Her love for the bird killed it.
She noticed the other bird jumping in the cage. She could feel that it wanted to be free. It hoped to fly into
the clear, blue sky. She lifted (举起) it from the cage and flew it into the air. The bird circled once, twice,
three times…
When the bird was flying happily in the sky, she was so glad. Just then the bird flew closer and sat softly
on her shoulder. It sang the sweetest song she had ever heard.
The fastest way to lose love is to hold it tight; the best way to keep love is to let it fly!

A
People say that George Washington, the first president of the United States, never told a lie. But it seems that the president was not without faults.
A New York library recently found that Washington borrowed two books from the library in 1789. He didn’t return them.
If he were still alive, he would have to pay the library ＄300,000 for being 220 years late.
On October 5, 1789, when the first president borrowed the books form the New York Society Library, he didn’t sign his name in the borrower’s book. He just wrote “president” to show who had taken them out.
The two books should have been brought back a month later but were never returned. Workers at the library realized the books were missing.
The New York Society Library doesn’t expect anyone to pay the fine. But it hopes that someone will return the books.
