The mother duck easily climbs the first stair and waits for the other little ducks to climb up.

following section introduces some basic features of prototype theory. 2. Prototype Theory: the underlining theory for prototype structures “What kind of bird are you, if you cannot fly”, said the little bird to the duck. “What kind of bird are you, if you cannot swim”, said the duck and dived.

Duck hunting is an absolute passion for me and nothing could possibly interrupt this annual event. For me, sitting out in a duck blind at 5:30 in the morning with the brisk cold air biting at my skin is something I look forward to each and every year. Even having to break through a layer of thin ice to make it out to my blind never gets old.

He is deciding to hitchhike to the West just like the ducks fly hundreds of miles to the South, which is an almost
