Once, two birds named Cici and Nick lived in a nest (巢). . They always found excuses for not doing any work.

On a cold winter day, a strong wind was blowing. . By chance, a hole was made in their nest. The cold wind blew in through the hole and got away the warmth from the nest. Both the birds started feeling cold. Nick thought, "I wonder why Cici is so lazy. Why is she not repairing the hole?"

On the other hand, Cici thought that Nick would fill the hole. Both of them were depending on each other. .

    Soon snow started to fall and the wind nearly blew off the last warm air from the inside of their nest. The snow- flakes entered the nest through the hole. The lazy birds started shivering(颤抖) with cold. .

    In the morning both the birds were dead in their nest. They had shivered to death but because of laziness they had not gotten up to repair the hole.
