Read this passage and choose the best given answer A, B, C or D for each question:
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.
