34、consonants（元音和辅音）to express ideas.Most primates（灵长类）communicate almost using vowel-like calls，but non-human great apes（猿），like chimpanzees,produceconsonant-like sounds to varying degrees.This raises the question of where consonants came from,says AdrianoLameira at the University of Warwick.To find i
35、t out,he studied existing literature to see how common consonantsare among the great apes.He found that orangutans（猩猩），which spend most of their time in the trees，produce a greater number andvariety of consonant sounds than gorillas and chimpanzees living on the ground.“Orangutans have rich soundsli
