At the meal time, these wild animals came near to the family and they would feed these special friends. In the large yard stood thirteen trees of different sizes. One day, while Joey was playing with his sister under the trees, he noticed that a tree trunk (树干) had a sad look. He ran into the house to tell his mom about it. She told Joey to find the reason why it was sad. So Joey went into the yard, ran to the sad tree and asked, “Why are you unhappy?” “I am the smallest tree around. The birds don’t fly to me. The rabbits don’t eat grass under me. The squirrels don’t climb to my top. Nobody needs me or loves me,” replied the sad tree. After knowing the reason, the family had a meeting. Joey suggested making a seat under the sad tree. Joey’s father said he could help make a seat around the tree. The family would sit under the tree and the tree wouldn’t feel sad anymore. When Joey told his special friends the tree was sad, they decided to do what they could to help make the sad tree happy again. Early the next morning, when Joey woke up, he noticed birds singing happily in the little tree and saw squirrels running up and down in it. Rabbits were eating the fresh grass around the tree. The little tree was happy again. Joey ran inside to tell the good news to his family. Joey’s mother and father went into the yard and saw the happy tree. “Let’s start to build the seats around the trees. I will need help to build them. Get the nails (钉子) for me, Joey,” said the father. “I can help you hold the nails, Dad,” said Joey’s sister. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 1．Why did the tree feel sad? A．Because Joey didn’t talk to it.
