Two Stories about Flying — English (Language & Literature) STD 10 — Question

The young seagull was afraid of flying. Even after several tries, he was unable to fly. Except him all his brothers and sister were expert in flying high.
He always relied on the food that his parents brought back from their flights.
So to make him fly they screamed, scolded and threatened to let him alone and starve on the ledge unless he flew away. They did not offer him food and let him look them while having their food.
