第一篇: Bluebirds are often known as the “bluebirds of happiness”, meaning they are generally associated with the
concepts of joy, happiness, and harmony. The bluebird is a symbol of hope, love, positivity, and renewal. It
symbolizes the essence of life and beauty. A bluebird reminds you to give yourself up to the beauty of nature that
surrounds you and set yourself free. One of the most significant symbols of the bluebirds is associated with their
wing color; blue is symbolic of peace, tranquility, and contentment, and so are these beautiful birds. Overall, the
arrival of the bluebird is a sign of hope since it could mean spiritual transformation.
Even in the harshest climates, when they have a scarcity of food, these birds still manage to sing cheerfully
and do so because they know better days are ahead. It is a sign that you should never lose faith, even in your darkest
hours. You must hold on to the belief that in the end, it will all be alright.
Bluebirds also stand for the inner child in all of us. They remind us that while the world might be a cruel place,
you should never lose your kindness and innocence because these are the traits that make you a better person. They
have a positive spirit and keep the negative energies at bay. The bluebirds remind you to be aware of whatever
sources of happiness around you so that you can reap the happiness out of those sources. A bluebird is often seen as a spirit animal. A spirit animal refers to a spirit which helps guide or protect a
person on a journey and whose characteristics that person shares or embodies. The bluebird spirit firmly believes
in spreading joy everywhere they go. The bluebird spirit animal almost always means good news; however,
regardless of what type of news we receive or change we notice, a bluebird spirit animal always prepares us for
what lies ahead. In times of trial, it teaches us to stay confident in our plan, and when goodness comes to us, it
encourages us to share our joy with others. 【題組】33. Which of the following statements is supported by the passage?
