EVERY morning in the school dormitory, I am woken up by the morning bell along with the crow (啼叫) of the two peacocks, which are the most special inhabitants in our campus.

When I first heard about them, I thought it was so 1　 　 to have two useless peacocks in a high school　 　 2　 　 I even planned a letter to the president　 　　3　 　 him to send them to the zoo. Yet after I paid them my first　 　　4　 , which was a week later, I 　5　 changed my mind.

That was my first Friday in school, 　　6 　 was filled by books and tests. My friend enthusiastically 　7　 me to the back garden of our school to visit the peacocks. I unwillingly followed her through the 　8　 and unruly (混乱的) flood of busy students, and came into the quiet little garden.

The 　　9 silence and special fragrance of water and grass quickly entered (沁入) my 　　10 heart, and brought me some fresh air. I walked to the cage of the peacocks and saw the two attractive creatures. "They are so　 11　 ."

Those simple words popped into my mind　 　　12　 　 I had seen peacocks many times in the zoo. I thought about the　 　13　 　 of several famous poets and artists while 　　14　 them peanuts and ice cream, and I felt a kind of　 　 15　 　 of nature and study in my mind.

Men are beings instead of　 　16　 . Working like machines will change our pristine (质朴的) minds and healthy hearts. There was　 　　17　 　 reporting that a student at Fudan University 18　 30 lost cats. I believe he did not graduate from our school, where everyone can hear the crow from the heavenly animals every morning.

I think nowadays, high school students need to go out to　 　　19　 　 our bodies and minds, 　　20　 　 crouching down behind the piles of text books.

Look at the gold forsythia (连翘), that's the spring calling.
