    Sand shifted and settled beneath Jeff's feet as he walked along the beach.Jeff loved how calm the water was at sunset.He closed his eyes and took a deep breath of salty air.Suddenly the peace was broken when close by he heard something.His eyes opened wide, and he saw a big seagull(海鸥)flying around his head.“Aawk,”it cried,swooping down again and again.

    Covering his head with his arms,Jeff dashed back to Grandpa’s collage and told him about the seagull.“It surely had a reason to act that way.”Grandpa said.“l wonder what it is.”

    The next morning,the sun shone brightly as Jeff bravely returned to the beach in search of interesting stones,shells,or pieces of driftwood.Once again,though,he soon found himself under attack.“Go away!” Jeff shouted and ran to the nearby bushes.

    There he heard a softer bird sound,“Eeep!” Gently pushing branches aside,he saw a young seagull.Its feet were tangled in(缠绕)plastic rings.“No wonder your mom’s upset,”Jeff said,Carefully he untwisted the rings.Finally free,the bird fluttered onto the sand crying,“Eeep!”

    “Aawk,”its mother replied,swooping down.Together they flew up into the blue sky.

    Jeff ran to fell Grandpa the news.”Now you can collect your rocks in peace.”Grandpa said. Grabbing a large bag.Jeff said.“I think I’ll collect some trash first.”Grandpa looked at Jeff with new eyes and  he said,” Would you mind if I join you?”
