题目内容
In 1956 Phoenix, Arizona, was a city with boundless blue skies. One day as I walked around the house with my sister Kathy’s new parakeet （小鹦鹉）on my finger, I wanted to show Perky 36 the sky looked like. Maybe he could make a little bird 37 out there. I took him into the backyard, and then, to my 38 , Perky flew off. The enormous（巨大的）, blue sky swallowed up my sister’s blue 39 and suddenly he had gone, clipped wings and all.
Kathy managed to 40 me. With fake optimism（乐观）, she even tried to reassure（安慰）me that Perky would find a new 41 . But I was far too clever to 42 that such a thing was possible.
Forty years later, I watched my own 43 growing. We shared their activities, spending soccer Saturdays in folding chairs with the 44 of the kids’ friends, the Kissells. The two families went camping around Arizona together. We became the 45 of friends. One evening, the game was to tell Great Pet stories. One person claimed（宣称）to 46 the oldest living goldfish. Someone else had a psychic dog. 47 Barry, the father of the other family, took the floor and 48 that the Greatest Pet of All Time was his blue parakeet, Sweetie Pie.
"The best thing 49 Sweetie Pie," he said, "was the 50 we got him. One day, when I was about eight, out of the clear, blue sky, a little blue parakeet just 51 down and landed on my finger."
When I was finally able to 52 , we examined the amazing evidence（证据）. The dates, the locations and the pictures of the bird all 53 . It seems our two families had been 54 long before we ever met. Forty years later, I ran to my sister and said, "You were 55 ! Perky lived!"
