the sounds that I searched for were, rain & thunder, City traffic, heart beats, and open heart surgery.
the two that I found interesting were the city traffic, why it triggered memories of me riding the subway train in New York. The other was the open heart surgery, the reason why is that you can hear the chambers of the heart opening and closing, with that you can also here when the chamber fills up with oxygenated blood by the sound of like a leaky faucet dripping water.

I searched for chicken, horn, laugh, and kids.

The chicken sounds seemed pretty realistic. Except for this one chicken, which was louder than all of the others. I sounded like a chicken in a cartoon. My family used to have chickens, so I know what they sound like. This was not very realistic of real chickens, but it isn't far off from sounding like chickens. It is better than some sounds I have heard of chickens. Some were really bad and some were entertaining. I would rate this one on accuracy on a 1-10 scale 10 being accurate, a 6.

When I typed in horn, I was expecting to get a musical instrument sound. I ended up with a boat horn. It scared me to death because my volume was a little to high. I felt it sounded like a boat horn that I have heard from a barge.

The laugh was funny. It reminded me of the way men and women laughed in old movies. Kind of sounded fake. The woman's voice was high, and the man's was low. It sounded like they were harmonizing.

I typed the word kids into the search engine. It was funny what I ended up with. There was only one file that appeared, and it was titled 'goat kid.' I was thinking 'what have I gotten myself into.' It was literally suppose to sound like a baby goat, but it did not sound like something I would expect. It sounds like a bird. Take a listen:
