阅读理解 Many people like animals and keep them as pets, like dogs, cats, snakes and birds. I love pets, too. My mother gave a pet to me as a birthday present last year. It is a beautiful parrot that comes from Australia. Its wings are green. Its tail is yellow and its feathers are blue. It is very clever. I often teach it to speak. It can repeat the words I say. When I get up in the morning, it can say "Good morning!" and when I come back home after school, it says, "Hello! Welcome. "I am very happy when I see it.
I keep it in a very beautiful cage. When it is hungry, it always knocks on the cage door. After eating, it sings happily. I clean the cage every day. If I am free in the morning, I will take it to the park. Now the pet is my special friend. I love it very much.
