People usually sing because they like music or because they feel happy. They express their happiness by singing. When a bird sings, however, its song usually means much more than that the bird is happy. Birds have many reasons for singing. They sing to give information. Their songs are their language.
The most beautiful songs are sung by male (cock) birds. They sing when they want to attract a female (hen) bird. It is their way of saying that they are looking for a wife. Birds also sing to tell other birds to keep away. To a bird, his tree or even a branch of tree is his home. He does not want strangers coming near him, so he sings to warn them. If a bird cannot sing well, he usually has some other means of giving important information. Some birds dance, spread out their tails or make other signs.

I think the Internet has changed our life in many ways (and for the better). First, thanks to the Internet, we can communicate with friends and relatives very easily and comfortably. We may make on-line calls or chat with them using Facebook or other applications. (These are not only convenient but also cheaper). Second, the way students study has also changed. Students now can read online. They can send their assignments to their teachers by emails. Teachers can also give feedback online using special applications. Furthermore, the way we entertain has also changed considerably. We can now see films online, listen to music on Youtube, play games online. In conclusion, we are grateful to the Internet inventor because our life has become more comfortable than ever thanks to the use of the Internet.

fun communication nonverbal match

Most of us think that great ideas were the result of genius thinking. However, many of the greatest discoveries and inventions in history began with very simple beginnings.
In the 18th century, James Watt was boiling water at home. As the water began to boil, he suddenly noticed that the steam was pushing the lid of the kettle. From this, he created the steam engine.
In ancient Greece time, Archimedes stepped into a bath tub and felt that water was being pushed out when he stepped in. This is how he came up with the idea of how to find the purity of gold.
In the 17th century, Isaac Newton was sitting under a tree when an apple fell and hit him on the head. This is when he realized the pulling force of the earth - the gravity.
There are many other examples of how great ideas began with simple beginnings. What one needs to become an inventor are careful observation and a lot of hard work.
