Answer 1

Explanation:

1. The young seagull thought that when she will fly his wings would not support him and he would definitely fall.

Because he was frightened that he might fall, he preferred to stay there.

2. Because he was not ready to fly . His younger brothers and sisters whose wings were even shorter than him were flying but he was not.

3. No. She flew to give him the fish . She came closer to him but suddenly stopped at a distance with fish in her mouth. Her intention was to make young seagull fly by giving him the greed of fish as he was really hungry
