One day in September we were doing repair work on my parents’ old house to get it ready for my youngest daughter's wedding. We had to         a great climbing plant that had grown      a roof beam(房梁)，so that we could repair the roof and      the walls.
When my husband was taking the plant away, he found the      of a blackbird that had made its home in the leaves. He then      something       among that mass of earth and straw of the nest. He broke the earth around it into pieces with his finger tips and, to his      , saw glittering gold. It was a child’s bracelet(手镯). He ran into the house to      me.
“You won’t believe that the      blackbirds not only steal the best fruit we      to feed on,”he said, “but they also want their children to      in a cradle(摇篮) of gold!”
When my daughter came over on the eve of the      , we told her about this      occurrence(发生的事).
“Don’t you remember, mother?” she said with a loud      . “When I was eight, you gave me a bracelet that I      a few days later while out playing in the yard? It was this one!”
As the bracelet no longer      its owner and was dirty, I decided to take it into my safekeeping.
In December of the following year, the young couple’s baby son was baptized(受洗礼). Among the      the newborn baby received, I placed his mother’s bracelet, now shining like      . I hope that if my grandson      loses it, one of the      that live in my backyard is somewhere nearby.

The birthrate in Europe has been in a steady decrease since the 1960s. European countries, realizing crisis is at hand, are providing great encouragement for parents to create more babies in the 21st century.
Affairs Ministry concluded last year that,    11   cash encouragement, some women just don’t want to be    12   holding the baby. “What we know is that it’s good for the    13___ if men and women share the burden of having children,” says Soren Kindlund, family policy adviser at the Swedish ministry.    14   Swedish parents can take their paid leave as they wish, men use a mere 12% of it; 60% of fathers do not take even a(n)    15 _   day off work.
Experts fear that the tendency for women to use most of the parental leave could make employers    16   to give young women the permanent jobs they need to qualify for paid maternity leave (产假). In January, Sweden decided to allow new fathers two months’ paid leave, with a warming: use it or    17   it.
Kindlund admits that men are under   18   to stay at work, even though parental pay comes out of the public purse. “It’s not popular among bosses and perhaps with other men in the workplace,” he says. “But it’s good for the father and for the child if they can    19    a relationship.”
In Norway, a(n)   20   policy has worked wonders. 70% of dads in Norway now take parental leave, and the birthrate of 1.85 children per woman is one of the highest in Europe.
