Once there was a baby eagle living in a nest(巢) on a cliff(山崖). The baby eagle loved his nest. It was warm and soft. And even better, he had all the food and love that his mother could give. Whenever the baby eagle was h{#blank#}1{#/blank#} his mother would always come just in time with the delicious food he liked.

    He was growing h{#blank#}2{#/blank#} day after day. But suddenly his world changed. His mother stopped coming to the nest. He was full of sadness and fear. He thought he would die soon. He cried loudly, but nobody h{#blank#}3{#/blank#} him.

    Two days later his mother appeared(出现) with some nice food. The baby eagle was wild with joy. But his mother put it at the top of the mountain and then looked down at her baby. The baby eagle cried out. "Mum, why did you do this to me? I'm hungry. Don't you know I will die if I have n{#blank#}4{#/blank#}to eat?"

    "Here is the last meal I give you, Come and get it y{#blank#}5{#/blank#}. I can't help you." His mother said. Then she flew down and pushed the baby eagle out of the nest.

    The baby eagle fell down faster and faster. He looked up at his mum, "Why do you give me up?" He looked down at the earth. The ground was much c{#blank#}6{#/blank#}. Then suddenly something strange happened. The air caught behind his arms and he began to fly! He wasn't moving to the ground any more. I{#blank#}7{#/blank#}, his eyes were pointed up at the Sun.

    "You are flying! You can make it!" His mother smiled.
