But in recent years, scientists have been documenting surprising intelligence and emotional depth in animals ranging from honeybees to elephants. Here are some amazing examples.Artistic Monkey Business Janet Schmid, director of the Little River Zoo in Norman, Oklahoma, learned a lot about the intelligence of capuchin monkeys. She and her husband adopted a young male, named Bailey. The capuchin particularly liked taking car rides, insisting that he insert the key and ride in the front passengers seat. Now Bailey has become a devoted painter. He uses brushes to create colorful, abstract paintings, and prefers not to be disturbed.Prairie Dog SoundThrough a variety of birdlike sounds, prairie dogs warn each other of approaching creatures. They demonstrate a surprisingly complex communication system. In his 25 years of study, Slobodchikoff, a professor of biology, has recorded them pronouncing ten nouns including hawk, deer and coyote, a number of adjectives to identify color, size and shape, and even some verbs to indicate speed.In an ongoing study, Slobodchikoff learns that their brain contains avery extensive vocabulary. He once used his best prairie dog sound to saycoyote, and they just looked at him in anger as if he had said a bad word. Ivy League ParrotOne African grey parrot Alex is said to have the cognitive abilities of a five-year-old child. Alex can identify 50 different objects, seven colors, five shapes, quantities up to six, and the concepts of bigger, smaller, same and different. Also Alex is considered to make reasoned decisions. During an experiment, researchers gave Alex different-colored blocks in sets of two, three and six. When asked which color group had five blocks, Alex replied, “None. ”And he answered the same in repeated tests. Obviously, he interpreted the concept of “none” as an absence of quantity all on his own. Thats a lot like a high school student answering questions on a quiz show. 56Which of the following is true?ABailey is as clever as a child of five.BThe prairie dog loves taking car rides.CThe capuchin monkey is fond of painting.DAlex develops a communication system.57The African grey parrot Alex can .Aanswer questions on a quiz showBunderstand the figure “7”Cidentify five colors and seven shapesDapply the concept of “none” correctly58What is the passage mainly about?AAnimal communication BAnimal researchCAnimal intelligence DAnimal information(B)We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen? When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck? And Paul, why didnt pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car? When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, its too late.Why do we go wrong about our friendsor our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we dont really listen we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, Youre a lucky dog, and thats being friendly. But lucky dog? Theres a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesnt see it himself. But bringing in the dog bit puts you down a little, what he may be saying is that he doesnt think you deserve your luck.Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isnt important. Its telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you havent got a date for Saturday night.How can you tell the real meaning behind someone s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.59. This passage is mainly about _.A. how to interpret what people say B. what to do when you listen to others talkingC. why we go wrong with people and how to avoid these mistakesD. why we go wrong with people sometimes60. According to the author, the reason why we go wrong about our friends is that .A. we fail to listen carefully when they talk B. we tend to doubt what our friends sayC. people tend to be annoyed when we check what they sayD. people usually state one thing but mean another. 61. The underlined word it in the second paragraph refers to_.A. being friendly B. a bit of envy C. lucky dog D. your luck62. When we listen to a person talking, the most important thing for us to do is _.A. notice the way the person is talkingB. take a good look at the person talkingC. mind his tone, his posture and the look in his eyesD. examine the real meaning of what he says based on his manner, his tone and his posture63. The author is most probably a _.A. teacher B. psychologist C. philosopher D. doctor(C)“Image is everything.” An entire industry has been built upon the precondition that image is everything, but when it comes down to it, an appealing image is not enough. If there is no substance behind the image, the product, service or person will fail at length. 2009200520072020First of all, one should consider how important image is in the selling of products and services. Advertising agencies have raised the art of creating an image to a state of near perfection. Public concept of that product or service is certainly managed by the images created by the advertising agencies. But if the product or service does not live up to the image that was created, the customer will be very dissatisfied and possibly ask for their money back. For example , the Arthur Andersen accounting firm had spent decades building up an image of trustworthiness. But the recent scandal (丑闻) showed that behind that image, it had dishonest business practices. Despite the previous positive image, the firm is being accused of criminal actions and it will probably not survive as a business unit. Although the image had been nearly perfect, the reality behind the image has led to the downfall of the world famous accounting firm.Similarly, personal consultants can build up a public image for politicians and movie stars. Putting out positive news releases, making sure that only the best photographs are published, and ensuring that the person is seen in all the right places can build up a very positive image in the view of the general commons. But once again, history is filled with examples of both politicians and movie stars that fell from grace (体面) like the story of the Hollywood actor giving in to the pressures of fame and fortune. With people, just as with products and services, image is certainly important, but without positive substance behind the image, failure is close.To summarize, it is clear that an appealing image is extremely important to success, whether that image is related to selling a product or service or to the selling of a person. But image is only half of the equation. What lies behind that image is every bit as important as the image itselfthe person or product must deliver on that image or there is little chance for long-term success.64Why did some famous people fall from grace? ATheir images were not well built up. BThey failed to live up to their images. CThey felt much pressure from the public. DThey paid little attention to fame and fortune.65 The structure of the passage is . A: Argument P: Point C: Conclusion66The author tries to argue that_. Aimage creates everything Bimage is the key to success Ctruth goes hand in hand with image Dtruth and image are equally important(D)Alone in the wilderness. Nothing but jungle. A world of shadow with the rays of light falling like blonde hair from the crowns of the giant trees. Jungle in the midday sun. Everything motionless. Not a sound from sky or earth. Complete silence. Only some coconuts falling, at long intervals, very far away. The world reduced to the soft touch of cool grass along my naked back, and a sweet smell of rich soil and vegetation. Stretched out with closed eyes beside my heavy burden of fruit and firewood, I enjoyed the feeling of fresh blood streaming through every part of my body and fresh jungle air filling every corner of my lungs. Resting motionless, I could
