There are many different kinds of parrots.Many people like them because they often have beautiful colours,and because they can talk.
Nobody knows why parrots can talk.Some people say that parrots can talk because they have unusual tongues (舌头).But some other birds that can talk do not have unusual tongues.
Parrots do not usually know what they are saying when they talk.They are only making sounds.However,they know when to say some word,such as “Hello” and “Goodbye”,and they usually know and can say their names.What a funny animal!
