19．How much do you know about the bird world？
Birds use three gaits：walking，running and hopping．
In walking，the left and the right feet move in turn（輪流）．Each foot is on the ground for more than half the time，so there are more times when both feet are on the ground．In running，each foot is on the ground for less than half the time，and there are more times when both feet are off the ground．In hopping，the feet move almost at the same time．This means that for much of the time both feet are off the ground．
Middle-sized and large birds walk at low speed and either run or hop at higher speed．Small birds，such as sparrows and swallows，usually do not walk，because walking may be too slow for them．It seems that the more time a bird spends in trees，the more likely it is to hop．Perhaps there is wide space in a tree between one thin branch（樹枝） and the next，so walking is not a good choice，while on each small branch there is enough room to set both feet down side by side，so hopping seems to make sense．
