Answer 1

The original text of Sparrow was as follows:

Sparrow

Once upon a time, there was a sparrow that lived in a small mountain village. There are many birds in this small mountain village, but this sparrow is the most special because it always flies around alone and never comes into contact with other birds.

One day, an old man in the village found the sparrow and asked it,"why do you always fly around alone and not play with other birds?"

The sparrow replied,"the birds here are afraid of me. Do they think a big sparrow like me will eat them?"

The old man thought for a moment and said,"Don't be afraid. I'll play with you.".

So the old man picked up a wooden stick and gently knocked on the sparrow's cage. The sparrow heard the sound and immediately flew out. The old man and the sparrow began to play. The sparrow flew around and played hide-and-seek with the old man. Gradually, the sparrow was no longer afraid of other birds. It flew around the village with other birds and became one of the most popular birds in the village.

From that day on, the sparrow was no longer alone. It spent happy days with other birds.
