    People normally think of dogs as man's best friend, but to Brian Wilson, his two pet parrots are his best friends.

    It all began in 1995, when Brian was still a firefighter. A car accident caused serious damage to his brain. After several months of treatment, Brian's doctors said that he would never talk again and that he would have to spend the rest of his life in a nursing home.

    However, according to Brian, his two pet parrots didn't give up easily. They kept talking to him day and night, until one day, he said one word, then another, and all of a sudden was talking like a normal person again!

    Brian was so thankful that he decided to set up a home for birds which are not wanted by their owners. Now, his house is home to about 80 birds, including a great variety of birds like several macaws, cockatoos and African gray parrots. The birds fly around from room to room, some cackling (咯咯叫), others talking like humans. Though they all have big cages, Brian lets them fly freely inside the house.

    Over the years, Brian has developed a special relationship with birds. The birds that bite other humans, seem to like him and can get along with him well. He is now called a bird whisperer (鸟语者). Brian pays for most of the costs of looking after the birds with his own money, but has recently established a foundation (基金会) to accept donations. He and his birds also earn money by performing at birthday parties, weddings and other social events.

    For people who want to adopt (领养) Brian's birds, they have to volunteer at the foundation for three months before they can take the pet home.

I never knew that one little"I'm sorry"could mean so much. I never thought that one moment in time could 1 the rest of my life.

I was sitting in class one day when a short and 2 kidnamed Victor came in. He sat down next to me, looked at meand looked away. When our eyes met, I 3  talked to him, but he just smiled at me. So I didn't think 4  was the person that I'd like to become friends with.

One day I joined the unkind kids in 5  him, although I knew it was wrong."Do you have any friends?"a kid asked Victor, who 6  past us alone, keeping his head down.

 "No, he hasn't got any 7  . He's too foolish,"I said. Victor looked at me with sad eyes. That night, I couldn't sleep 8  I couldn't get Victor's face out of my mind. In the next week, he never 9  my eyes in class or smiled at me.

It was really hard for me to ask him to forgive me. I couldn't forget his sad 10  every time I saw him. The next day in class, I wrote him a note telling him how 11  I felt. About five minutes later, I turned and saw tears12 his eyes. Later he told me that I would never realise how much my apology(道歉) had meant to him. He said he hoped that we 13  become friends.

We had a very pleasant talk over lunch that noon. And then, we became close friends. When I think back, I realise that my apology made it possible for me to 14  good friends with Victor, a lonely person.

So never 15  a chance to tell somebody you are sorry. Apologies can really change your life.
