I took him into the backyard, and then, to my 17______, Perky flew off. The enormous（巨大的）, blue sky swallowed up my sister’s blue treasure and suddenly he had gone, clipped wings and all.
Kathy managed to forgive me. With fake optimism（乐观）, she even tried to reassure （安慰）me that Perky would find a new 18 ______. But I was far too clever to 19______ that such a thing was possible.
Decades later, I watched my own 20_______ growing. We shared their activities, spending soccer Saturdays in folding chairs with the parents of the kids’ friends, the Kissells.

One person claimed（宣称） to 21______ the oldest living goldfish. Someone else had a psychic dog. Then Barry, the father of the other family, took the floor and 22 ________ that the Greatest Pet of All Time was his blue parakeet, Sweetie Pie.
"The best thing 23______ Sweetie Pie," he said, "was the way we got him. One day, when I was about eight, out of the clear, blue sky, a little blue parakeet just floated down and landed on my finger."
When I was finally able to 24_______ , we examined the amazing evidence（证据）. The dates and the locations and the pictures of the bird all matched up. It seems our two families had been connected long before we ever met. Forty years later, I ran to my sister and said, "You were 25_______! Perky lived!"

Education is endless, 3 (compare) with schooling. It can take place anywhere. It includes both the standard learning that takes place in schools and 4_ whole universe of learning out of class. Though the experience of schooling can be known in 5 (advanced), education quite often produces surprises. A chance talk with a 6 (foreign) may lead a person to discovering how little he knows of another country. People obtain education from babies on. Education, then, is a very broad and 7 (limit) term. It is lifelong experience that starts long before the start of school.
Schooling, 8 the other hand, is a basic experience, 9 style changes little from one way to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at the same time, take 10 (fix) seats, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams and so on. Schooling has usually been limited by the edges of the subjects being taught.
