Many animals use some kinds of “language”。 They use signals(信號) and the signals have meanings. For example， __1 a bee has found some food， it goes 2 its home. 3 is difficult for a bee to tell __4 bees where the food is speaking to them， but it can do a little dancing. This tells the bees where the food is and 5 it is.
