Long ago, an old man kept a sparrow(麻雀)which he loved very much. One day the sparrow flew away and the old man was very sad.
He went out to look for him. At last, he met his sparrow in the mountains. The old man said that he missed him very much and asked him to go home.
Though the sparrow was happy to see the old man, he shook his head. The old man wanted to see how the sparrow was living. The sparrow led the old man to his home. There were many other birds. They all looked healthy and enjoyed each other's company(n.陪伴). The old man was very happy. When the old man left, the sparrow gave him a basket to take home with him as a present.
When he got home, his wife was very angry and asked him where he had been all day. He told her the truth. When the old man opened the basket, she was surprised to find it was full of gold. She could hardly believe it. After all, she used to treat the sparrow badly.
A few days later, the old woman went to the mountains, too. But the sparrow said nothing to her. Before she left, she unashamedly asked for a present. The sparrow offered her two choices. One basket was light and the other was heavy. But she could only choose one. The old woman took the heavy one. The sparrow told her she couldn't open it until she got home. She carried it all the way breathlessly(气喘吁吁地). When she arrived home and opened the basket, it was full of stones.
a. The old woman chose the heavy basket
b. The old woman opened the basket full of gold
c. The old man told his wife where he had been
d. The old man asked the sparrow to go home with him.
