b: a peacock

What: "Before reading this chapter, please read the earlier chapter in this section on peacocks, "Peacock Sentences." It discusses how the English sentence is like a peacock: every sentence in English has a head and body, and most have additional modifiers, much like a peacock has tail feathers."
