A lark (云雀) made her nest (鸟巢) in a field of young wheat (小麦). In this nest were three baby larks. The mother had to fly away every day to get them 1 . All around them the wheat grew tall and began to ripen (成熟).
One day, a farmer and his son came to the 2 . The farmer said, “This wheat is ripe. We must ask someone to help us 3 it.”
Hearing what they said, the larks were in great 4 because they were afraid of losing their home. When their mother got back to the nest, they at once told her what they had heard.
“We must 5 at once!” said the young larks. “Or the men will come and kill us.”
“There is no need to 6 now, my children,” said the mother. “We are quite safe at present. The man who waits for others to help him with his 7 is not to be feared. But when they come again, listen and tell me what they say.”
A few days later, the farmer found that the wheat was so ripe. He said to his son, “ 8 this wheat is not cut at once, we will lose half of them. We can’t afford to wait any longer for help from others. Tomorrow we must start to work, ourselves.”
When the young larks told their mother what they had heard that day, she said, “Ah! It’s 9 for us to leave now. When a man decides to do his own work and not to 10 anyone else, then it is sure to be done.”
By this time the little larks could fly, so the next day, they flew away to a new home.
