Read the paragrapbs in the box and answer the question that follows.
A biologist named Katharine Payne visited the elephants at a zoo. She felt the air
around her throbbing like the rumbling of thunder. When she felt the air throb. she
noticed that the skin on the foreheads of the elephants moved.
Also. the elephants seemed to communicate without making any noise. They did not
make a sound. but they would start and stop moving at the same time . Payne knew that
some animals. such as whales. made sounds too low for humans to hear. She thought.
" Maybe elephants. like whales. use low sounds to communicate with each other."
