Question:

DIRECTIONS: Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives and mark the correct Answer.

Have you ever heard a parrot or a pet talk? Or perhaps you have seen the roadside astrologer who has a couple of parrots in his cage, which, at his command, picks out your fortune card from a pile of cards. You may also have heard of pigeons which, once acted as messengers.

All these make you ask the question : are birds intelligent? Can they learn things? Formerly the biologists thought that birds could not learn anything, because their brains were too small and too simple, compared to the intricate nervous system and brain of higher animals. They can act only by instinct, following certain fixed behavioural patterns. Recent studies have shown that bird behaviour is a combination of instinctive or fixed behaviour and learned or flexible behaviour.

Formerly the biologists thought birds could not learn anything because:

Options:

they blindly follow their instinct

they are only interested in eating

they do not have an intricate nervous system
