Three sons talked about the gifts they gave their mother for her 70^th birthday.
　　The first said quickly, "I will buy a big house for our mother." The second said, "I will send her a new car with a driver." The third smiled and said, "I can buy her a house or a car, too. But remember how Mom likes reading books? And you know she can't see very well. I am going to send her a small bird that can read books for her. Mom just has to tell the bird about the name of the book and it can read for her."
　　Two weeks later, their mom sent out her letters of thanks.
　　She wrote to the first son, "The house is so big. I live in only one room, but I have to clean all the rooms of the house. How tired I am!"
　　She wrote to the second one, "I am too old to go on a trip. I can only walk slowly so I stay most of the time at home, so I never use the car and the driver feels bad at home every day."
"Dearest Donald," she wrote to her third son, "you have the good sense(感觉) to know what your mother likes. The chicken was tasty. Thank you very much!"
