Early that morning, Tom didn't go to work as usual. He thought he had caught a cold and phoned the restaurant to

ask for leave. But Tom didn't really feel ill enough to stay in bed. Instead, he decided to go to the new shopping mall to

buy

a

watch.

The

mall

was

interesting

so

he

spent

a

few

hours

looking

around.

He

felt

hungry

and

bought

some

popcorn(

爆米花

). Suddenly a large red and blue parrot (

鹦鹉

) appeared above him and swooped down again and again to

eat the popcorn from Tom's packet.

Tom was rather surprised, but he had seen the bird show at Ocean Park. He stretched out his arm and the parrot flew

down and happily climbed on to his shoulder, and then on to his head.

The parrot was quite friendly. So Tom just stood there with the parrot on his head.

The crowd of people grew and grew. A newspaper reporter heard the noise, saw the crowd and decided to investigate.

This is what happened: the parrot escaped from the owner's flat by flying out of the window. It enjoyed itself during the

daytime, but when evening came the bird tried to find its home, without success.

By the time the parrot found Tom, it had been free for two days and it was very hungry. It had had a drink from the

fountain but it hadn't had anything to eat at all. Popcorn was not its favourite food, but there was nothing else. So when it

saw Tom it was very pleased. It wanted a friend, it needed some food and it was hoping to go home.

Several hours later, the SPCA contacted (

联系

) the owner. He came to the mall with a bag of peanuts, which the parrot

liked even better than popcorn. He put the peanuts into a cage and the parrot hopped in.

Tom relaxed at last. He was tired and hungry, but the Parrot's owner thanked him and even gave him a reward

—

just

enough to buy the watch.

71. Tom didn't go to work that morning because he didn't feel well.

72. In order to feed some birds there Tom bought a packet of popcorn.

73. Tom stood with fear when the parrot climbed on to his shoulder and head.

74. The parrot escaped from a flat two days before it saw Tom in the mall.

75. At that time the homeless parrot was not only hungry but also thirsty.

76. The newspaper reporter found out the owner and contacted him at once.

77. The owner gave Tom a watch, so Tom didn't need to buy one himself.

The Wai Wai are a tribe (

部落

) of about 250 people who live in the Amazon jungle (

亚马逊丛林

). This tribe has had

little contact with the modern world. In fact, their nearest neighbors, another tribe of native people, live so far away that it

takes three weeks to travel between the villages on foot. One of the few Western people to have visited the Wai Wai is

Blashford- Snell. In March 2002, he speift two months visiting the tribe and offering them some help.

On the last day of his visit, the village priest (

牧师

) asked Blashford-Snell a favor. He wanted a grand piano to put in

the village church.

The priest said he had seen pictures of one in a book. Blashford-Snell didn't think he'd ever be able to play the piano

but the priest said,

上帝

) moves in mysterious ways.

Back in England, Blashford-Snell was offered a 360-kilogram grand piano as a gift from the Millennium Gloucester

Hotel London. Blashford-Snell and his team flew the piano as far as they could into the jungle by helicopter. But getting

the piano from the landing site to the village was no easy job. With the help of a few people from the tribe, they put the

piano in a sledge

（雪橇）

and pulled the sledge by ropes several miles through the jungle to a river. Then they loaded the

piano into a boat and started up the river. Finally, they arrived at the foot of the mountain where the tribe lives. With help

from more tribe members, they were able to climb to the top of the mountain carrying the piano. The piano had arrived at

its new home in the Amazon!
