Read the following passage, then answer the questions below:
There are different types of birds in this world, small and big, the ones which can fly and the ones that cannot. For example, the ostrich is the largest of the living birds, but it cannot fly. There are also some birds that can talk. The parrot is the most famous one that can talk. Birds' eggs are of different sizes. The size of a bird's egg does not always depend on the size of the bird. It really depends on the food they have. You may think of birds as animals which fly in the air and build nests in trees. But one type of these birds is a bird which spends much of its time in the water and even under water. It is the penguin. It can swim well but it cannot fly.
All of the different kinds of penguins live in the coldest areas of the world. Birds that fly have large feathers on the back of their arms. These make big wings ready for flying. Penguins don't have these flight feathers, so they can't fly.
