Man has a big brain. He can think, learn and speak. Scientists once thought that men are different from animals because they could think and learn. They know that dogs, mice and birds can learn, too. They are beginning to understand that men are different animals because they can speak.

　　Animals cannot speak. They make noises when they are afraid, or angry or unhappy. Apes can understand some things more quickly than man. One or two of them have learnt a few words. But they can not put words together to make sentences. They cannot think as we do because they have no languages. The language is a wonderful thing. Man has been able to build a modern world because he has language.

　　Each child can speak his own language very well when he is four or five, but no animals learn to speak. How do children learn it? Scientists don't know. They only know that man can speak because he has the brain.
