【文章大意】一位老人养的麻雀飞走了，老人很伤心。在经过苦苦找寻后终于找到了它，但鸟不愿和老人回去。老人回家时，它给了老人一篮子金子。老人妻子得知后也去想得到金子，但她非常贪婪并且对鸟也不好，最终只获得一篮子石头。

【1】of 考查短语及定语从句。be fond of 中of可以提前但不能省略。

【2】looking 考查非谓语动词。此处为非谓语并且与主语是主动关系，现在分词作伴随状语。

【3】Though/ Although 考查连词。从上下文分析，此处与下半句应是转折。

【4】its 考查代词。用形容词性物主代词修饰head，its head指它的头。

【5】to leave 考查动词。固定短语：it is time for sb to do sth。

【6】angrily 考查副词。通过句子“said the old man's wife ___ ” 可知横线中词修饰动词said，修饰动词应为副词。

【7】replied 考查动词。 全文是过去时态，故将此处运用一般过去时。

【8】amazed考查形容词。固定短语：somebody be amazed to do。

【9】choices考查名词。从结构判断此处是名词，并且为复数形式。

【10】the 考查定冠词。此处是特指重的那一个。
