There were three brothers, John, Jack and James. Every year on their mother’s birthday, they sent her expensive presents. They liked to show her how rich and successful they were.

The oldest brother, John, had the most money and he wanted his mother to know this.

“I must give her something none of my brothers can give her,” John thought. “I must find something of which there is only one in the whole world.”

He advertised in the newspapers. “Wanted — the perfect gift for the woman who has everything.”

For many days his telephone did not stop ringing. People phoned him from all over the world. They wanted to sell him “the perfect gift”. However, they did not have anything that was the only one in the whole world.

Then, less than a week before his mother,s birthday, a man came to his office. He was carrying a cage (鸟笼), and in the cage there was a large bird.

“This bird”, the man said, “can speak ten languages and sing any pop song. There is no other bird like it in the world.”

“I will listen to it, John said. If you are telling the truth, I will buy the bird from you.”
