续写原文&细节分析

I was invited to a cookout on an old friend’s farm in western

Washington. I parked my car outside the farm and walked past a milking

house which had apparently not been used in many years. A noise at a

window caught my attention, so I entered it. It was a hummingbird (蜂鸟),

desperately trying to escape. She was covered in spider-webs (蛛网) and

was barely able to move her wings. She ceased her struggle the instant I

picked her up.

With the bird in my cupped hand, I looked around to see how she had

gotten in. The broken window glass was the likely answer. I stuffed a

piece of cloth into the hole and took her outside, closing the door securely

behind me.

我去好友的农场野炊，路遇一只误入牛奶房然后被蛛网困住的蜂鸟，

我救了她。

main characters:

I, the hummingbird (she), my old friends

where:

my old friend’s farm in west Washington, a milking house with a broken

window glass

The character of “I”: 细心，有爱心

When I opened my hand, the bird did not fly away; she sat looking at

me with her bright eyes. I removed the sticky spider-webs that covered

her head and wings. Still, she made no attempt to fly. Perhaps she had

been struggling against the window too long and was too tired? Or too

thirsty?

As I carried her up the blackberry-lined path toward my car where I

kept a water bottle, she began to move. I stopped, and she soon took wing

but did not immediately fly away.

Hovering (悬停), she approached within six inches of my face. For a

very long moment, this tiny creature looked into my eyes, turning her

head from side to side. Then she flew quickly out of sight.

细节分析2：

main plot:

我救出蜂鸟后，她没有立刻飞走，而是停留了一会儿，仔细地看了我

一会儿

Why didn’t the bird fly immediately?

惊魂稍定; 记住“我”的样子，好好道别，可能还会再来找“我”，感谢

“我”

The character of the hummingbird:

聪明，通人性，感恩
