Although parrots seem to be able to talk, theyre not really talking like humans.Theyre not choosing and saying words with specific meanings. Instead, theyre simplyimitating(模仿) sounds theyve heard. Repeating sounds theyve heard before-oftenmany times-is called mimicry. The talking we hear from parrots can consist ofimitations of all sorts of sounds, from spoken words to creaking (咯吱声) doors tobarking dogs. Theyre not really talking, but it doesnt mean that parrots mimicry isntimpressive. Did you know that parrots dont have vocal cords like humans? Its true!Instead, parrots use muscles in their throat to direct airflow through their mouths tomimic the sounds they hear around them. Parrots, such as African Greys and Amazons, arent the only birds that can learnto imitate sounds, including human voices. Some other birds known for their ability totalk include Indian Ringneck Parakeets, Budgies and Cockatiels. f youre wondering why some birds imitate sounds they hear, its because theyresocial animals. They feel a need to be able to interact with those around them. Whenkept as pets, these birds see their owners as their family and want to communicate withthem. Since a human owner usually cant learn a birds language, the bird instead triesto learn the language of its owner. Although these birds are often quite intelligent,imitation is still the best that they can manage. Mimicry becomes a way for them to getattention and interact with their owners. If you want to have a bird that talks as a pet, the best thing to do is to find a birdthat already knows how to imitate sounds. Even if a bird knows how to imitate a few sounds, though, youll still need to spend lots of time training it and providing positiveinteractions to encourage more talking .28.

Special vehicles can now travel deep into thedark oceans to see what mysteries can be discovered. . More of the suns heat is assimilated by water along the equator than at the poles.This means the water at the equator is warmer than water at the poles.

The warm or cold ocean air moves overthe land as wind. Oceans are also a really important part of the water cycle.Evaporation（蒸发） from oceans creates most of the worlds rainfall. Plants on landneed the rain to absorb nutrients from the soil. The oceans are also home to all kinds of sea life. These include fish, whales,dolphins, octopi, lobsters, crabs and shrimps.
