A

Before Christmas Mr Smith broke his right leg and had to stay in hospital. When he was there, he always asked his doctor when he could go home. He didn’t like to spend Christmas in hospital. Though the doctor did his best, Mr  Smith didn’t get better. So on Christmas Day he was still in hospital. He spent a bad day in bed thinking that he missed a lot of fun on such a happy day.
The next day the doctor told him that he might be well enough to leave hospital in time for the New Year. Mr  Smith was very happy to think that he would spend New Year’s Day outside hospital. Soon Mr  Smith left hospital and on New Year’s Eve he went to a party. He enjoyed himself there. But he drank too much. On his way home that night, he had a fall and broke his left leg. What a unlucky man he was！

C
              
If we find a bird nest, we will have a good place of observing(观察)  and knowing about birds.
 Birds sit on eggs and take care of their baby birds from April to June. Because the baby birds are too young to leave the nest, mothers often leave and come back to the nest during the time to look for food. So it is good to observe birds. When we observe birds, we’d better hide ourselves in a close place to the nest, and it’s better to use binoculars(双筒望远镜).
 But how to make a bird nest? It’s very easy. If you want to make one, please follow these:
 Making a nest: A good nest must be very fine, strong, thick and easy.
 a) Each nest must have six boards. Don’t make the boards too slippery. 
 b) Dig a small hole in the front of the nest as a door. The “door” is from 3cm to 5cm. So the bird can fly in or out easily.
 c) Make sure the rainwater doesn’t go into the nest.
 d) One piece of the boards should be easy to open.
 e) Please don’t forget to color the nest.
