试题分析：这篇文章通过两只鸟儿的故事告诉人们懒惰只会给自己带来伤害，这样的人不会成功。

【1】C句意：它们俩都非常懒惰。根据下文它们总是找理由不做任何事情，所以它们都很懒，故选C。

【2】D句意：两只鸟都开始感觉到寒冷。根据上下文可知在这个寒冷的冬天不仅寒风呼啸同时也雪花飘飘，故选D。

【3】E句意：因此没有谁去修理这个洞。根据上文它们两个都指望对方，所以它们都没修这个洞，故选E。

【4】B句意：但是没有谁积极去工作。根据上文虽然它们都冻得发抖但没有一个主动去干活，故选B。

【5】A句意：因为它们的懒惰吹灭了它们的机会。生活也是如此，根据上文有些人从来不会获取成功的原因，正是由于懒惰所导致的结果。答案为A。
