Answer 1

Explanation:

The young seagull was afraid to fly. Even after seeing his parents teaching and helping his brothers and sisters to fly, he still could not gather enough courage to take his first flight. That is why his father and mother were scolding and taunting him for his cowardice. They threatened him to starve on the ledge if he did not fly. They did so because they wanted him to overcome his fear and take his first flight.
