  小学英语阅读:The Feather

  It was a cold and dark night when the sun set in the west. All of the chickens in the hen house sat on perches, closed their eyes and got ready to sleep. “Good night!” Everyone fell asleep after saying good night to each other.

  However, one hen was sitting up and pecking at her own feathers. This hen was quite famous for laying eggs everyday. In addition, she sometimes made other chickens laugh with jokes.

  As she pecked her feathers, one of her white feathers fell down to the ground suddenly. “Oh, one has come off! But I don‘t have to feel sorry for it. That means I lost as much weight as one feather.” The Hen said as if it was nothing. All the other chickens were sleeping, so none of them could see it.

  There was an owl sitting on a branch next to the hen house. Owl’s eyes have keen sight at night. The owl muttered to himself. “I heard it clearly. I heard what the hen said with my sharp ears.” But the owl lost interest soon and told this story to a pigeon in his neighborhood.

  “Listen to me. Well, a Hen in the hen house pulled out one of her own feathers to look attractive. How can this happen? “Is it true? That‘s ridiculous.”

  The pigeon burned to tell the story to her friends, so she told it to a barnyard duck in her neighborhood. “Hey, duck. I have some surprising news.” “What’s up?” “A hen pulled all her feathers out to look pretty.” “What a stunning story!”

  The barnyard duck was shocked by the story. “That‘s unbelievable. If she pulled out all her feathers, she must have a cold and be running a fever.” There was a swallow living under the eaves of the duck’s house. The barnyard duck told the story to the swallow.

  The swallow was surprised, too. “What an unbelievable story this is. I can‘t keep quiet. I have to tell this story to everyone.” The swallow flew to the sky full of bright moonlight.

  The next morning had broken. “Tweet tweet! Tweet tweet!” Early in the morning, sparrows were sitting down in front of the hen house and chattering. The Chickens felt strange and asked the sparrows. “Excuse me, dear sparrows. What happened?”
