I'd like to introduce a short story of a hummingbird. A hummingbird is a very
little bird. The little bird's name in this story is Kurikindi.
Kurikindi lived in a forest. One day there was a * fire in the forest. The little bin
stayed there and tried to *put out the fire. But all the other animals hurried to
*escape. When they saw Kurikindi on the way, they asked Kurikindi, “Why are you
doing that?" Kurikindi answered, “I'm only doing something I can do."
After ( ① ) this short story, I thought about a few things. For example, did the
hummingbird believe he could put out the fire? Why did all the other animals want
to escape from the forest?
Kurikindi did (②) so small that others thought his *actions meant (③).
Many people often think like that. What do you think about Kurikindi?
* fire (火事) put out (消す) escape (逃げる) action (行動)
