Benhttp://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201204/201204030748354892639.mp3Suddenly he heard a bird's wings beating the dry grass. Ben moved quickly toward the sound.
He saw a colored head, the head of a beautiful pheasant bird. The bird did not move until Ben came close. Then it tried to fly away, but one wing was broken.
Ben lifted the bird and held it close against his body. The bird fought to escape, but soon lay quietly in Ben's arms. Its body was warm and heavy.
Ben decided to take the bird home and fix its broken wing so that it could fly again.
He was almost through the woods when he heard the hunter behind him.
"You just find that bird?" the hunter asked.
"Yes," Ben answered.
"It is mine!"
Ben was afraid and tried to answer, but his mouth was too dry to speak. But he wet his lips and said "No."
"I shot him. I say he is mine!"
"But he is not dead yet," Ben answered, "besides, anything on my land belongs to me."
The hunter reached out for the bird. "I will have to kill it," he said. "The bird will soon die anyway."
Ben got angry. "Get out of here!" he said. "I told you before and I am telling you again: get off my land!"Ben突然听到一阵鸟的翅膀拍打干草的声音，于是他快速朝着声音走去。他看到一个漂亮的、深红色的野鸡的头，直到Ben走过来野鸡也没离开。随后野鸡试图飞走，但它的一只翅膀受伤了。
Ben把野鸡举起来并放到自己身上给它保暖。野鸡在Ben的手臂了挣扎着想要逃跑，但很快就安静下来了。野鸡的身体渐渐暖和起来且变重起来了。Ben想把野鸡抱回家并把他的翅膀治好，这样野鸡就能飞了。当Ben几乎穿过树林时，他听到猎人在后面问：“你是刚找到这只鸟的吗？”“是的”Ben回答道。“它是我的”Ben很害怕，他想要回答，但他的喉咙干的不行，于是他把嘴唇弄湿了，并且说道“不”。
“我射中它的，所以我说它是我的”
“但它还没死，而且，我土地上的所有东西都属于我的”Ben回答道。
猎人朝野鸡扑过来，“我要它杀死他，它马上就死了”
Ben非常生气“滚开。我之前就跟你说过了，马上从我的地盘上消失”
