Can animals talk? They can’t say hello or speak when we’re sad. People say that just because we can’t understand them. In fact, animals can talk, too! They speak to us through body languages. Take a close look at your pet (宠物)(if you have one). Do you notice your cat is closing her eyes happily as you pet her? Not only animals at home can communicate and speak to you, but wild animals
also can. Crickets make short high sounds to tell you warm weather. A bird will call out to other animals to let them know that people are coming. A horse with their ears back and neck arched tells you to keep away. A wolf’s cry to his friends means “I’m over here. I’m lonely. ” The wolf waits for them to join him. Animals will never lie. If you want to know the honest truth(事实), look at your pets or the wild animals around you. If they love you, they will let you know in their own way. You just have to understand them.
