Everybody knows that words can carry messages．People communicate with words．Books, magazines, TV ，radio and films all help us to know what is going on in the world and what people are thinking about.
Do you think you can communicate without words? A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly．Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad．When you put up your hand in class, the teacher knows that you say something or ask a question．You shake your head, and people know you are saying “No”．You nod and people know you are saying “Yes”.
Other things can also carry messages．For example, a sign at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take．A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the library．Signs on doors tell you where to go in or out．Have you ever noticed there are a lot of signs around you and you receive messages from them all the time? People can communicate in many ways without words．For example, an artist can use his drawings to tell about beautiful mountains, seas and many other things.

Hunting with birds is a very old sport．In some countries the golden eagle is used for hunting wild animals．They are used for hunting foxes and wolves.
Training an eagle to hunt takes a long time．Hunters catch young eagles in nets made of hair．After being trained the eagle is taken to a field．A blindfold over the bird’s eyes keeps it quiet until the hunter is ready.
The eagle sits in the arm of the hunter．The hunter’s arm is covered with a long, special glove to protect it from the sharp claws of the bird．In the field, as soon as the hunter sees a fox or a wolf, he removes the blindfold．The eagle quickly flies into the air and began to look for the wild animal.
The eagle sees the animal and catches it with claws like steel．Its beak and claws are strong enough to hold the animal．Usually, the bird carries the animal back to the hunter．Sometimes fast animals with good eyes can get away.
