Old Case: Text & Sample Writing
Compared with the text and the sample writing, read the three underlined sentences(echoes) from the sample writing and find the clues from the text.
1.The little sparrow seemed to calm down and began to take the crushed blueberries we provided.
2.It wasn't long before her knotted feathers smoothed and half-closed eyes widened, but her wing still remained broken.“Let’s send her to my uncle — he can cure the wing!” said Mia.
3.She chirped cheerfully, landed on our palms and nuzzled(挨着) us, and an invisible yet unshakable bond was built between us.

Tips
The rain tapped hard on the classroom window as I hurried to my desk. Suddenly, I spotted something small and brown curled up in a puddle (小水洼) under an oak tree besides our teaching building—too still to be a leaf. With curiosity, I rushed out to it. However, when I knelt down, my breath caught: a sparrow with one wing broken, feathers knotted, eyes half - closed. “Don't move,” I whispered, wrapping her in my handkerchief, then dashed back.
Ms. Sophie, my English teacher, helped me make a nest from a shoebox and tissues. “We need to act fast,” she said. “Who knows about birds ” Mia, who fed stray cats daily, raised her hand, “My uncle is a vet—he can show us how to cure the wing.” Jake, our art club member, grabbed his drawing book, “I'll draw diagrams so we won't mess up.” Lila, who usually kept to herself, spoke up: “I can research what sparrows eat online.”
That afternoon, our group crowded around the shoebox. Mia gently held the sparrow while Jake carefully attached a small stick to her broken wing. Lila read aloud from her phone: “Warm water and crushed blueberries, but only a drop at a time.” I took notes, marking when we fed her or changed the tissues. At one point, the sparrow chirped (发啁啾声) softly, and we all froze, grinning. For the first time, we weren't just classmates—we were a team, each doing what we did best.
Problems popped up. The sparrow refused food the next day, and Lila panicked. “Did we hurt her ” Mia checked and shook her head. “Maybe she's scared. Let's leave her alone for a while.” We took turns sitting by the window, talking softly so she would get used to our voices.
Para.1: By Friday, something different happened.
Para.2: Then came the news that the vet said the sparrow was ready to fly.

Step3.
I was invited to a cookout on an old friend's farm in western Washington. I parked my car outside the farm and walked past a milking house which had apparently not been used in many years. A noise at a window caught my attention, so I entered it. It was a hummingbird (蜂鸟), desperately trying to escape. She was covered in spider-webs (蛛网) and was barely able to move her wings. She ceased her struggle the instant I picked her up.
With the bird in my cupped hand, I looked around to see how she had gotten in. The broken window glass was the likely answer. I stuffed a piece of cloth into the hole and took her outside, closing the door securely behind me.
When I opened my hand the bird did not fly away: she sat looking at me with her bright eyes. I removed the sticky spider-webs that covered her head and wings. Still, she made no attempt to fly. Perhaps she had been struggling against the window too long and was too tired Or too thirsty
As I carried her up the blackberry-lined path toward my car where I kept a water bottle, she began to move. I stopped, and she soon took wing but did not immediately fly away. Hovering (悬停), she approached within six inches of my face. For a very long moment, this tiny creature looked into my eyes turning her head from side to side. Then she flew quickly out of sight.
During the cookout I told my host the hummingbird incident. They promised to fix the window. As I was departing, my friends walked me to my car. I was standing by the car when a hummingbird flew to the center of our group and began hovering. She turned from person to person until she came to me. She again looked directly into my eyes then let out a squeaking call and was gone. For a moment, all were speechless. Then someone said, "She must have come to say good - bye."
Para.1: A few weeks later, I went to the farm again.
Para.2: I was just about to leave when the hummingbird appeared.

Para.1:A few weeks later, I went to the farm again. The moment I stepped onto the familiar ground, my eyes instinctively sought the old milking house. To my relief—and quiet excitement—the broken window was now fixed. As I wandered along the blackberry-lined path, memories of the hummingbird’s trembling wings and bright gaze flooded back.
