A young dove asked the King Dove, “Your Majesty, please 43 us to take some rest.” The king replied, “Be 44 , my dear young fellow. We shall 45 get something to eat very soon.”
The young dove started flapping his wings with 46 and soon left everyone else behind. After some time, he 47 and spoke to others, “Hey, I see lots of 48 down there.”
Hearing this, all the doves started 49 the scattered grains under a banyan tree. 50 the King Dove said, “It is too good to be true. There is something wrong. Don’t rush towards the grains. It may be a 51 .Some hunter must have laid a trap.”
But the doves were extremely hungry. The 52 of the grains was too tempting (诱惑人的). Without giving a(n) 53 to the king’s advice, they swooped down and started eating the grains. After having a big 54 , they tried to fly away only to 55 that they were caught in a net.
The King Dove said, “I told you before that it is a trick of some hunter.”
All of them felt ashamed and 56 . One of them said to the King Dove, “Oh, Your Majesty, please save us.”
