One day, in the morning, I went out of my house.  I had to go to the store.  Suddenly, I heard a whistle.  I looked in that direction and didn’t know who was doing it.  I happened to look up and I saw it.  It was a parrot.  I asked my neighbor to help me catch the parrot.  My neighbor said, “If I help you catch it, I will keep it.” It took us all day to try to get the parrot to come down from the tree, so we gave up.  We decided to let it go.  I returned home and decided to take an apple for the parrot.  The parrot saw the apple and flew to my hand.  I brought it home.  I was very surprised.  The parrot talked and danced.  The parrot is now part of my family.
