29、ish language. “I thought if he learned to communicate, I could ask him questions about how he sees the world.”At the time, most scientists didnt believe animals had any thoughts.

41、After two hours, he returned to the wise man.“Well,” asked the wise man, “Did you see the Persian tapestries（挂毯）in the hall? Did you see the garden that took the master gardener ten years to create?” The boy was embarrassed, and replied that he had observed nothing. His only concern had been not to

42、spill the oil.“Then go back and observe the wonders of my world,” said the wise man. The boy picked up the spoon and returned to his exploration of the palace.
