Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer
The first system of communication of animals is natural. Many kinds of animals have ways of communicating with each other. And one of the most interesting examples is that of bees. These insects communicate with each other by dancing. The most important kind of dance that they do is concerned with food. They get their food from flowers, of course, from plants and trees. When a bee has found some food, it returns to the other bees and can give them three basic kinds of information about the food: which direction it is in, whether it is nearby or a long way away, and whether it is good to eat or poisonous.
The other kind of system of communication of animals is artificial. It means animals learn it; in this case, they learn from man. Several famous experiments have been carried out with chimpanzees, trying to teach them human language.
One of these experiments was done with a chimpanzee called Sarah. Sarah was taught to understand a system of symbols which represented words. The symbols were cut out of coloured plastic, and each different shape stood for a different word. For example, a red square stood for “banana”, Sarah’s favorite fruit. Soon Sarah could not only understand words, but even sentences. She could obey orders: if her human friends put down the symbols for “apple in cup”, she would put the apple in the cup. Later, she began giving the scientists orders – she was writing her own sentences, and she got upset if the scientists did not obey her. We do not yet know whether chimpanzees will ever learn to use language to communicate as freely as human beings do, but the results so far suggest that this is at least a possibility.

Do you think the animals can understand each other? The answer is yes. They can communicate to each other by signs and sounds. For example, dogs communicate in many ways. They not only bark, even they howl, growl, snarl, and whine. They lift a paw, or bare their teeth. Other dogs can understand what these sounds and actions mean_.
Animals communicate with each other not only with sounds and movements but with smell. Most animals that live in herds depend on smell to keep together. And, of course, we know how dogs recognize each other by smell.
Apes are supposed to be among the most intelligent of animals, yet, they really have no better “language” than other animals. They make many sounds and expressions of the mouth to communicate their feelings of anger or hunger or joy, but they have nothing like the words of human speech.
By the way, unlike human beings who have to learn how to talk, apes and other animals know their “language” by instinct. They will make the right kind of cries and sounds and expression even if they have never seen another animal like themselves before.
Birds, however, learn their way of singing, at least in part. That is why a sparrow brought up among canaries will try to sing like one. It has been learning the wrong “language”!
