28、 herhusba nd adopted a young male, n amed Bailey. The capuchinparticularly liked taking car rides, insisting that he insert the key andride in the front passengers seat.

29、Prairie Dog SoundThrough a variety of birdlike soun ds, prairie dogs warn each other of approach ing creatures.They dem on strate a surpris in gly complex com muni cati on system .In his 25years of study, Slobodchikoff, a professor of biology, has recorded thempronouncing ten nouns in clud ing hawk,

30、 deer and coyote, a nu mber ofadjectives to identify color, size and shape, and even some verbs to indicatespeed.In an ongoing study, Slobodchikoff lear ns that their braincontains a very exte nsive vocabulary. He once used his best prairie dog soundto say coyote, and they just looked at him in an g

31、er as if he had said a bad word.One Africa n grey parrot Alex is said to have the cog nitive abilities of afive-year-old child.

32、ake reas oned decisi ons. During anexperime nt, researchers gave Alex differe nt-colored blocks in sets oftwo, three and six. When asked which color group had five blocks, Alexreplied, None.

Animal in formationBWhen some one gives you advice, liste n without judgme nt, try to find value in what youehearing, and say : Thank you .This wise advice is easy to understand yet hard to practice

36、. I give youan example from my life whe n I totally blew it in terms of practic ing what I teach.In my work I travel constantly. I always put off going to the airport until the last second. My wife,Lyda, was sitting next to me in the front seat. I was racing along and not paying much attention. Lyda

37、cried out! Look out! There is a red light up ahead. ”Being a trained behavioral scienee professional who teaches others the value of encouragingadvice I naturally screamed at her: “know there is a red light up ahead! Don you think I cansee? ” When we arrived at the airport, Lyda didn speak to me. I

38、wondered why she seemed mad atme.During the flight to New York, I did a cost-be nefit an alysis. I asked myself:What was thecost of just liste ning whe n Lyda called out the warning? Zero. I the n reason ed: What was the potential ben efit? What could have bee n saved? Several pote ntial ben efits c

39、ame to mind, in cludi ng herlife, my life, and the lives of other people.I Ian ded in New York feeli ng ashamed of myself. I immediately called Lyda and told her mycost-benefit story. I convinced her: The next time you help me with my driving, I am just going to say,Thank you.”A few mon ths passed,

40、and I had long forgotte n the in cide nt. Aga in, I was rac ing off to theairport, whe n Lyda cried out: Look out for the red light! I was embarrassed, and the n shouted: Thankyou!I m a long way from perfect, but I getting better. My suggestion is that you get in the habit ofasking the important peo

41、ple in your life how you can do things better. And be ready for an answer.Some people may tell you things like Look out for the red light. When this happens, remember thatthere is possibly some pote ntial ben efit. Then just say: Thank you.60.What do we know about the author?A.He is expert at behavi

44、n daily lifeB. treasure others suggestionsC.lear n from the author experie ncesD. discover pote ntial ben efitsCLast week, we explained that the planet Mars has passed opposition. It passed a point oppositethe Sun. This week, we tell about the planet surprising motion（运动）among the stars.For thousand

45、s of years, people have recognized that planets travel among the stars. The pla netsC. Animal intelligeneeD. Animal in formationgen erally follow the path take n by the Sun through the sky. The Sun path is called the ecliptic. Thegroups of stars along the ecliptic are called the Zodiac.The motion of

46、 the pla nets can be confusing at times. Every one knows the Sun rises in the east and sets in thewest. But this is caused by the tur ning moti on of the Earth. Plan ets gen erally move from west to east.However, Mars will appear to move backward for about two mon ths this year. This happe nsbecause

47、 the Earth is overtaking Mars on its way around the Sun. Mars began its backward, orwestward, motio n on May 11th, It will start moving eastward aga in on July 19th.Mars apparent motion has been a mystery to astronomers for hundreds of years. Most earlytheories of the solar system argued that the Su

48、n and planets turned around the Earth. But the suddenwestward motion of Mars presented a problem. Why would Mars move west for two mon ths whe n it nears o ppositi on ”In 1543, a Polish church worker n amed Nicolas Coper ni cus published a differe nt theory. Histheory said the Earth and pla nets mov

49、ed around the Sun in perfectly circular orbits. Coper ni cus theory was simpler. But his Sun ce ntered system still did not expla in the observed moti on ofMars very well.Fin ally, a Germa n mathematicia n n amed Joha nnes Kepler published a complete theory of themotion of the planets in 1619. He ha

50、d carefully studied the motion of Mars for many years.Joha nnes Kepler discovered that the pla nets do not move in circular orbits around the sun.In stead, they travel in flatte ned orbits called ellipses. Mars elliptical orbit is the cause of itsunu sual brighte ning this year and its appare nt lar

51、ge size.During the n ext several weeks, you can see for yourself why the mysterious motio n of Mars hascaused so many people to won der.From the passage we can lear n that_ .A.B.C.D.DAlone in the wilder ness. Noth ing but jun gle. A world of shadow with the rays of light falli ng likeblonde hair fro

52、m the crow ns of the gia nt trees. Jun gle in the midday sun. Everyth ing motionless. Nota sound from sky or earth. Complete silenee. Only some coconuts falling, at long intervals, very faraway. The world reduced to the soft touch of cool grass along my naked back, and a sweet smell of richsoil and

53、vegetation. Stretched out with closed eyes beside my heavy burde n of fruit and firewood, Ienjoyed the feeli ng of fresh blood stream ing through every part of my body and fresh jun gle air filli ngevery corner of my lun gs.Resting motionless, I could see the sun through my closed eyelids, alone in

The Great Discovery on MarsIt follows the path of the sun.It travels in a circular orbit.The Surpris ing Moti on of MarsThe Won derful Mystery of MarsIon ely as I, and as motionless and silent as everything else. The earth had surely stopped turning andsomewhere on this pla net there was supposed

57、 to be roari ng traffic in busy streets. What a crazy, unbelievable thought!Another coconut fell, to make the world come to a complete standstill. I had to roll over onto mystomach to feel that at least I could move and make noises. Then I found company. A little brow n antwas struggli ng to find it

58、s way with a bit of dry straw through the jun gle of leaves and grass below mynose. I wondered if I could give the little fellow a lift with its burden, but it showed not the slightest signof tiredness and struggled on with all six legs, head first or head last, waving its feelers energetically asif

59、 the trip had just started. Who ever saw a tired ant? Tiredness, disagreeable tired ness, is restricted tohun ted ani mals, slaves and modern man .It is as great an effort for an office clerk to walk five blockswith a loaded brief-case as it is for a jungle-dweller to cross a valley with a goat on h

60、is back. It is as hardto get up and climb or run whe n you have bee n seated for years as it is to get up and walk whe n youhave bee n in bed for mon ths. The body is stra nge. Spare it, and you get really tired for almost nothing;use it, and almost nothing makes you really tired.I rose to my feet.
