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.

Dear Polly,
I'm writing because I'm wondering why you've missed the last two days of school. You're never absent, so it was very surprising to me when you weren't in class. I called your house, but no one answered. I wanted to write you to check in to make sure everything is okay. Are you sick? Did your family go on vavation? If they did, that would explain why no one answered the phone.
Mrs. Egan assigned us a new project. It's a project on animals. Everyone has a partner and we have to choose a unique animal and do a presentation on it for the class. I told Mrs. Egan I'd work with you even though you weren't there. I hope that's okay with you. You should start thinking about what animal you want to study.
I really hope everything is okay with you. E-mail me or call me when you get this. I hope I see you tomorrow.
Gloria
