They make a sound for food.Mum tells them to be quiet when danger comes. But now a new study finds that kind of talkbegins long before the babies are born. Even in the eggs, they can talk with each other and know when to get out or when to keep waiting.To check that finding, a team of scientists from in watched unborn birds carefully in Salvora Island. Over there, sea birds produce eggs and minks（水貂）eat baby birds. So it is q uite a dangerous place for baby birds. Knowing when to come out of the egg is a matter of life and death.Scientists collected sea bird eggs and put them into two groups. When minks come, a parent will give warning calls to the baby birds. Scientists played those calls for one group.While the other group stayed in a safe box. They would never hear such calls.When scientists put all the eggs together, they found something surprising: after receiving warning calls, the cggs vibrated more than the others. Those vibrations moved from one egg to another. It was just like there were ears in the eggs.

I’m sorry to hear about your problem. But I’m glad you are feeling better and are recovering (康复). I am surprised t hat in China someone’s liver (肝脏）matched yours! This is really a moving story— A stranger do nated part of his liver to a girl he doesn’t even know!You are right. We shouldn’t care too much about our weight. I’m happy you stopped taking those losing-weight pills. From your photo I can see you are now looking very well in the hospital. To keep slim is important, especially for an actress. But nothing is more important than health. Your doctor’s advice is indeed very good— exercise for at least half an hour every day and eat lots of fruit and vegetables.It’s not only in your country. It’s the same here with us Chinese— many people are always going on diets or taking losing-weight pills, which are often dangerous. But in fact, some of them are not overweight at all. I hope these people can learn something from your story. Hope you will leave hospital as soon as possible.Love,Helen1. Who is “a girl” in the letter?2. What did the doctor advise Emmy to do?3.
