doing what they always do to prepare for the colder months. squirrels （松鼠）, for example, have been busy gathering nuts from trees. well, scientists have been busy gathering information about what the squirrels do with the food they collect.they examined differences between red squirrels and gray squirrels in the american state of indiana. the scientists wanted to know how these differences could affect the growth of black walnut （黑胡桃） trees. the black walnut is the nut of choice for both kinds of squirrels. the black walnut tree is also a central part of some hardwood forests.rob swihart of purdue university did the study with jake goheen, a former purdue student now at the university of new mexico. the two researchers estimate that several times as many walnuts grow when gathered by gray squirrels as compared to red squirrels. gray squirrels and red squirrels do not store nuts and seeds in the same way. gray squirrels bury nuts one at a time in a number of places. but they seldom remember where they buried every nut. so some nuts remain in the ground. conditions are right for them to develop and grow the following spring. red squirrels, however, store large groups of nuts above ground. professor swihart calls “death traps for seeds”.gray squirrels are native to indiana. but professor swihart says their numbers began to decrease as more forests were cut for agriculture. red squirrels began to spread through the state during the past century.the researchers say red squirrels are native to forests that stay green all year, unlike walnut trees. they say the cleaning of forest land for agriculture has helped red squirrels invade indiana. jake goheen calls them a sign of an environmental problem more than a cause.8the study done by rob swihart and jake goheen is to _afind out the living conditions for squirrels blearn squirrelsinfluence on black walnut trees cdo something to get rid of squirrels dsave the forests in the american state of indiana9. the difference

emotions is unique. well, think again. even the expression of the most personal feelings can be classified, according to mind reading, a dvd exhibiting every possible human emotion 16 in the mid 1800s, darwin divided the emotions into six typesanger, fear, sadness, disgust, surprise and enjoymentmore complex expressions of emotion were probably learned and therefore more specific to each culturebut now it is believed that many more facial expressions are shared worldwide 17 the mind reading dvd is a systematic visual record of these expressionsthe project was designed by a cambridge professorhis research team first had to define an emotion 18 using this definition, 412 emotion terms were identified and discussed, from afraid to wantingthen each expression is acted out by six different actorsit was really clear when the actors had got it right, says cathy collis, who directed the dvdalthough they were given some direction, the actors were not told which facial muscles they should move 19 someone who has tried to set such rules is the american, professor paul ekman, who built database of how the face moves for every emotionthe face can make 43 distinct muscle movementsekman has also found that it may not be possible for people to reproduce them artificiallythe most difficult expression to reproduce is the smileit isnt only about stretching the lips, but tightening the tiny muscles around the eyes 20 if we learnt to recognize whether someone was using their eye muscle when they smiled, we would be able to distinguish true enjoyment from falseait shows 412 distinct ways we feelbthese can be combined into more than 10,000 facial shapescthese particular muscles are difficult to control, and few people can do itdthey decided that it was a mental state that could be introduced by i feel or he looks or she soundsehe said the expression of these feelings was universal and recognizable by anyone, fromany culturefit is as if they are programmed into the brains of normal humans wherever they are andwhatever their racesgwe thought of trying to describe each emotion, but it would have been almost impossibleto make clear rules for this第二部分
