Chickens have wings(翅膀) and feathers, but they are not good at flying. They can only fly a few metres. This is because chickens' wings are too small, and their flight muscles(飞行肌) are too large and heavy. These make it hard for them to take off. But scientists that chickens are not always that way. Jungle fowl(原鸡) are a kind of wild bird. They are the closest living relatives of modern chickens.
Jungle fowl can fly for only a few metres. But they can take off in a near-vertical(将近垂直的) and quick way.
But modern chickens can't do that. This is because of how humans breed chickens for food. We like to eat white meat. So we feed them food that leads them to have larger flight muscles (or chicken breasts) than jungle fowl. This is called selective breeding(选择性繁殖).

I think cats are the easiest animals to look after and they are so nice towards their owners. So many people keep them as pets.
When you first bring your new cat home, it will feel frightened(害怕的). So when you get home, take your cat out of the box, and just let it walk around to know the new home. If you try to pick it up all the time, you will just make it feel more frightened.
Cats can look after themselves, and they don't often need walks. But you need to wash their plates and feed them food and water.
Your cats will need a lot of care, or they will be unhappy. My Kitty gets much love and care, so she is always happy.
