They lack the kind of structure that【C10】______us to divide a human utterance into【C11】______.
We can change an utterance by【C12】______one word in it with【C13】______: a good illustration of this is a soldier who can say, e.g., "tanks approaching from the north",【C14】______who can change one word and say "aircraft approaching from the north" or "tanks approaching from the west"; but a bird has a single alarm cry,【C15】______means "danger!"
This is why the number of【C16】______that an animal can make is very limited: the great tit(山雀)is a case【C17】______point; it has about twenty different calls,【C18】______in human language the number of possible utterances is【C19】______. It also explains why animal cries are very【C20】______in meaning.
