問題詳情

It is impossible to teach animals to use human language. Animals do not have the right kind of vocal organs needed forspeaking human languages. But we still can communicate with animals. One way is to teach animals to use signs of differentshapes, such as circles, triangles and squares. These sings represent words that can be made into simple sentences. Another way is to teach apes to use a sign language that deaf people use. The most famous student is Koko, a gorilla who knows 600 hand signs and understands more than 1,000 spoken words. Now Koko can use a talking computer. When she touches a picture of a hand sign, the computer says the word for you.But since animals cannot really learn to speak human languages, perhaps we can learn their languages. Scientists have been trying to understand the sounds made by dolphins and whales, for example. Do you think someday we will be able to learn animals languages, just as we learn each other’s languages now? They might tell us things we don’t want to hear, such as how dirty we humans have made the earth. But imagine yourself on a sinking ship and think how wonderful it would be to talk todolphins. vocal organ 發音器官 paragraph 段落
