Bird’s beak is used mainly for eating and grooming. But a bird may click his beak once as a greeting, and several clicks can be a warning. Birds may sometimes bite, but it is difficult to know the reason behind it—maybe they bite to show anger or express fear. Birds’ sound plays a very important role in communication. Singing is the sign of a happy bird, and many birds love to sing around others. They may also purr. Their purr sounds more like a low growl, and may indicate (暗示) annoyance. They also click tongues against their beaks, and this often indicates a desire to be picked up and petted. Besides, birds can lift or open wings as a sign of happiness. But if they start opening and closing their wings, it may signal anger or pain. If a bird lets their wings hang by their side, he may be ill. Healthy adult birds will typically tuck (收拢) their wings against their bodies when they are at rest. We can also read birds’ language by tail feathers. A bird may move his tail from side to side, which is called wagging, to express happiness. Happiness is also the emotion expressed by moving tails up and down. However, if a bird fans his tail feathers out, it usually shows anger or aggression. 16. What does the underlined word “beak” mean? A. Mouth. B. Foot. C. Ear. D. Chin. 17. Which is NOT a sign of happiness of birds? A. Singing. B. Clicking beaks several times. C. Lifting and opening wings. D. Moving tails up and down. 18.

When birds are at rest, they will tuck their wings against their bodies. B. Birds’ purr may indicate they are annoyed. C. Birds usually fan their feathers out to show anger. D. Birds’ bites certainly mean they are in fear. 20. Where can we probably find the passage? A. In a film review. B. In a science report. C. In a travel guide. D. In an art magazine.
