     Ms Liu taught physics in a middle school. Last month she explained to one of her classes about
sound, and she decided to test them. She said to them, "Now, I have a brother in London. If I was
calling him on the phone, and at the same time you were 75 feet way, listening to me from across the
street, which of you would hear what I said first, my brother or you? Why?"
     The cleverest student answered at once, "Your brother, Ms Liu, because electricity (電) travels
faster than sound waves (波)."
     "That's very good," Ms Liu answered. But then one of the girls, Gao Hui, raised her hand and said, 
     "I don't think so." "Your brother would hear you earlier because when it's eleven o'clock here, it's
only eight o'clock in London."

     Many students of English think that learning a new language is very difficult. Now think how difficult it
is to learn English when your brain is only the size of a bird's brain! That is what some birds can do.
     Many different kinds of birds can copy the sounds of language. African grey parrots are the best known
for this.
     Every December in London, the National Cage and Aviary Bird Show tries to find the best "talking" bird
in the world. One bird named Prudle stood out among the "talking birds". She won this prize for 12 years
from 1965 to 1976.
     Prudle was taken from her nest in Uganda in 1958. She was sold to Iris Frost in Seaford, England. Prudle
knew almost 800 words in English.
     Prudle was also the oldest bird in the world that lived in a cage. Ms. Frost took care of the bird until
Prudle died in 1994. Prudle was 35 years old.
     A different kind of bird, not a parrot, named Puck was tested in 1993. It turned out that Puck knew more
English words than Prudle knew. Puck knew more than 1,700 words.
