Unit 7 A Good Read
第五课时 Section B Reading 1
I.阅读理解
Mary began to like her life here. Every morning, she went outside after breakfast and spent most of the day in the grounds.The cold wind brought pink to her face. And she finished all of her food each evening. She was much healthier. After dinner,she liked sitting near the fire and talking to Martha.
"Why does Mr. Craven hate the locked garden?"Mary asked once.
"It was Mrs. Craven's garden and she loved it. She looked after the flowers together with Mr. Craven. No gardeners were allowed in."
“But what happened?”Mary asked.
“There was an old tree in the garden with a branch(树枝) like a seat, Mrs. Craven often sat there, reading and talking.One day, the branch broke and she fell down. She was badly hurt and died soon. Mr. Craven locked the garden and never talked about it."
Mary seldom felt sorry for anyone, but now she understood how sad her uncle must be.
The wind roared around the house, and the doors and windows banged. Mary listened, and through the noise she thought that she heard a child crying.
“Can you hear someone crying?"she asked Martha.
Martha seemed a little nervous. "No,” she answered. "It is only the wind or the servant who works in the kitchen. She's got a toothache. Perhaps she's crying. I'm going to check if she needs any help. " After the words, Martha left the room quickly. Then Mary looked around the house. Suddenly she heard again the sound of a child crying. She stopped to listen at a door, but then another door opened and Mrs. Medlock came out, “What are you doing here?" she said, and she took Mary by the arm and pulled her away.“Get back to your room at once."

They travel to many amazing places and meet different people.5.they find several blue birds during the journey,none of them is the real one. Gradually, they feel upset and 6. (hope).What moves me most is that they meet their dead grandparents in the Land of Memory. It lets us know love can always stay in our mind.
Finally,the children return home 7.nothing.To 8. (they) surprise, the Blue Bird is right in their own house all the time. This story passes us a key lesson. We always try our best to seek happiness far away, but it is 9. (actual) around us. We need to look inside ourselves and cherish what we own.
