If you want to watch and know something about birds, you must find a good place near the bird nest（巢）.
Birds sit on eggs and take care of their babies from April to June. Because the baby birds are too young to leave the nest, parents often go to look for food and come back in several minutes. So it is good to watch birds. When we watch birds, we’d better hide ourselves in a close place to the nest, and it’s better to use binoculars (双筒望远镜).
But how to make a bird nest? A good bird nest must be very fine, strong, thick and comfortable. If you want to make one, please follow these:
a) Each nest must have six boards（木板）. Don’t make the boards too slippery（滑）.
b) Dig a small hole in the front of the nest as a “door”. The “door” is big enough so birds can fly in or out easily.

c) Make sure the rainwater can’t go into the nest. d) One piece of the board should be easy to open. e) Don’t forget to color the nest.
25. The most important thing in watching birds is to_______.
A. look for a place near the bird nest B. climb up to the trees C. catch a bird D. kill a bird
26. We have to hide ourselves to ________, when we’re watching birds. A. take better care of them B. use the binoculars C. make them do everything as usual D. kill them at last.
27. We should leave a hole in the front of the nest so that ________ easily. A. we can clean the nest B. birds can fly in or out C. we can hang (挂) D. we can make it 28. What’s the best title (标题)of this passage?

C
People in the United States honor their parents with two special days: Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June. Mother’s Day was proclaimed（公布） a day for national observance （仪式）by President Woodrow Wilson in 1915. Ann Jarvis from Grafton, West Virginia, had started the idea to have a day to honor mothers. She was the one who chose the second Sunday in May and also began the custom of wearing a carnation（康乃馨）.
In 1909, Mrs. Dodd from Spokane, Washington, thought of the idea of a day to honor fathers. She wanted to honor her own father, William Smart. After her mother died, he had the responsibility of raising a family of five sons and a daughter. In 1910, the first Father’s Day was observed in Spokane. Senator Margaret Chase Smith helped to established Father’s Day as a national commemorative （纪念性的）day, in 1972. These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care.
