The paper thing is a lie. I was in 4th Grade and folded an old test at least 8 times. My mom got pissed since it required a parent signature though.

Duck Quacks do echo aswell.

Due to the very similar acoustic structure between the quack and the echo, it may be difficult to tell where the quack ends and the echo begins, both having similar waveforms on an oscilloscope and blending together in a way that makes them difficult to distinguish. In the same way, human hearing may not perceive the difference between a duck's quack and its echo.
