After a little while, the old woman again asked the question about the sparrow. This time Helen got 4. She shouted at her mother for asking the question again and again. The old woman 5 stood up and entered the house. Helen continued reading her book. A few minutes passed and her old mother 6 beside her again. She opened an old diary and put it in front of Helen. Helen picked up the diary and began to read it. It said, "Today, while I was 7 in the garden, my little Helen came to me. Looking at a sparrow on a tree, my child asked me what it was. I 8 at her, said it was a sparrow and kissed her. After a while, little Helen asked the question again. This went on until she went back into the house with me after I finished my work. Little Helen asked me at least ten times and I kept on answering her and 9 her."
Tears came into Helen's eyes. She closed the 10 and felt very sorry for what she did. She realized that she should treat her mother the way her mother treated her.
