In 1956 Phoenix, Arizona, was a city with boundless blue skies. One day as I walked around the house with my sister Kathy’s new parakeet (小鹦鹉)on my finger, I wanted to show Perky   36   the sky looked like. Maybe he could make a little bird   37  out there. I took him into the backyard, and then, to my   38  , Perky flew off. The enormous(巨大的), blue sky swallowed up my sister’s blue   39  and suddenly he had gone, clipped wings and all.
Kathy managed to   40  me. With fake optimism(乐观), she even tried to reassure(安慰)me that Perky would find a new   41  . But I was far too clever to   42  that such a thing was possible.
Forty years later, I watched my own   43  growing. We shared their activities, spending soccer Saturdays in folding chairs with the   44  of the kids’ friends, the Kissells. The two families went camping around Arizona together. We became the   45  of friends. One evening, the game was to tell Great Pet stories. One person claimed(宣称)to   46  the oldest living goldfish. Someone else had a psychic dog.   47  Barry, the father of the other family, took the floor and   48  that the Greatest Pet of All Time was his blue parakeet, Sweetie Pie.

When I was finally able to   52  , we examined the amazing evidence(证据). The dates, the locations and the pictures of the bird all   53  . It seems our two families had been 54   long before we ever met. Forty years later, I ran to my sister and said, "You were   55   ! Perky lived!"
