Read the passage carefully and give the answer of following questions. 

Language, they say, is the lens through which human beings perceive the world. If so, English is perhaps the most distorting lens through which to see animals. It has perpetuated a cross eyed view of birds, beasts, fish and fowl. The very word 'animal' connotes the brutish and the sensual. Animal instincts and animal passions imply baseness and vulgarity. The language transfers negative human traits to animals, making the former appear as characteristis of the latter. Thus, the chicken in cowardly, frightened, faint-hearted; the goat lustful and foolish; the chicken is cowardly, frightened, faint-hearted; to goat lustful and foolish; the bear rough and ill-bred. Butterflies are flighty, and foxes notorious for craftiness and cunning. They baffle, deceive, cheat, Much the worst one, reptiles, particularly the snake, creeping, base, malignant, abject, ungrateful and treacherous. Always the snake in the grass.

Each species carries its denigration forever embadded in its English name giving the language as many unpleasant adjectives and figures of speech as it could possibly want. To be bull-headed is to be impetuous and obstinate; the cattish woman is spiteful and back-biting; the crab-faced person has a peevish countenance. An elephant's walk is ungainly, bird brains are to be ridiculed and the herd mentality draws only contempt. You can be as blind as a bat and batty, if you are crazy as well.
