How Animals Hear（動物如何聽到聲音）

1. When we talk about ears, we usually mean the oddly wrinkled appendages on the sides of our heads.

1、當我們提到耳朵，通常指那個生長在我們頭部兩側(cè)的奇怪的褶皺的附屬肢體。

2. We are aware that at the end of the central hole in this outer ear there is something called the middle ear, with an eardrum and a few little bones. Even deeper lies the inner ear, the organ with which we "hear".

2、我們知道，在外耳中孔的底部有東西稱為中耳，它由一個耳鼓和一些小骨骼構(gòu)成。而真正能使我們“聽”的器官在更深處的內(nèi)耳。

3. Animals such as dogs and cats also have conspicuous outer ears, but few of us probably ever stopped to think whether there might be such a thing as a middle and inner ear beneath those pointed tips. Yet, we know very well that these animals hear.

3、諸如貓和狗這樣的動物也有引人注目的外耳，但很少人能夠停下來去想，在豎立的尖兒下面，是否那里也有類似于中耳和內(nèi)耳的東西。但是我們很清楚地知道這些動物都能夠聽到。

4. Birds are even more mysterious, because here we do not even see an outer ear. The same is true to still a larger degree of such animals as frogs and fishes, although in the frog we can at least see an eardrum.

4、鳥類甚至更為神秘，因為我們甚至看不到它們有一個外耳。還有很大數(shù)量的動物如青蛙和魚類也是如此，雖然我們至少可以看到青蛙有一個鼓膜。

5. Again, at one time or another, you may have found that all such animals hear. Hunters know that birds are attracted by artificial calls, and fishermen emphasize that you should be as quiet as possible if you don't want to go home empty handed. And if you ever hunted frogs in your childhood, you know how softly you had to tread! Moreover, it seems absurd that birds should sing and frogs croak, if they could not even hear their own voices.

5、此外，你可能曾經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)所有的這些動物都在聽。獵人們知道鳥類會被人造的聲音所吸引，漁夫們則強調(diào)，如果你不想空手而歸的話就要盡可能的安靜。如果你在童年抓過青蛙，你應(yīng)該知道要多么輕柔地走動。說實在，青蛙在叫，鳥兒在唱，如果它們甚至聽不到自己發(fā)出的聲音，豈不荒謬。
