One day I 36 a taxi to go to a meeting. As it came near the corner, the taxi stopped suddenly.The 37 got out looking very puzzled(迷惑). A big 38 which had been following the taxi stopped, too. The taxi driver was now 39 at the corner looking up 40 the sky and the truck driver got out and 41 him. A number of cars behind them were 42 to stop as well and a large crowd of people had 43 at the corner.
The cause of all this 44 was a very strange noise. It 45 as if thousands and thousands of 46 were chirping(鸣叫).The sound of so 47 birds toghter was quite surprising and many people looked 48 . The most extraordinary thing was that,except one or two 49 , there was not a bird in 50 . No one was able to know why — 51 two policemen arrived on the scene. They walked all around the area for a while and then went over near the railroad tracks beside a big board advertisement(广告)for a 52 . Since the noise seemed to be coming from around there, they climbed up and found that two loudspeakers had been 53 behind the advertisement.The bird noises were being broadcast to 54 attention to the film advertisement.
The cinema that made this advertisement was 55 to take the loudspeakers away, because they caused trouble and people were tired of them.
