This is because no-kill shelters and rescue organizations often work together to aid in urgent cases. An incredible network of shelters helping other shelters enables these miracle workers to save

15、 so many pets in danger of being put down prematurely.We have had a lot of other rescue groups come in and they help us get some of our animals adopted out like when we re too full or things of that nature, so we kind of help each other out, and so this was a favor to help this particular shelter, s

21、ve cells respond, Shimpei Ishiyama and his adviser are discovering a mystery that has puzzled thinkers since Aristotle expected that humans, given their thin skin and unique ability to laugh, were the only ticklish animals.It turns out that Aristotle was wrong. In their study published on Thursday,

22、Ishiyama and his adviser Michael Brecht found that rats squeaked and jumped with pleasure when tickled on their backs and bellies. These signs of joy changed according to their moods. And for the first time, they discovered a special group of nerve cells. These nerve cells made this feeling so power

23、ful that it causes an individual being tickled to lose control.To make sure that he had indeed found a place in the brain where tickling was processed, Ishiyama then stimulated(刺激) that area with electrical currents. The rats began to jump like rabbits and sing like birds.“Its truly ground-breaking,

24、” said Jeffrey Burgdorf, a neuroscientist at Northwestern University who reviewed the paper. “It takes the study of emotion to a new level.”Burgdorf has played a central role in our understanding of animal tickling. He was part of a team that first noticed, in the late 1990s, that rats made special

25、noises when they were experiencing social pleasure. Others had already noted that rats repeatedly made short and high sounds during meals. But the lab where Burgdorf worked noticed that they emitted similar sounds while playing. And so one day, the senior scientist in the lab said, “Lets go and tick

26、le some rats.” They quickly found that those cries of pleasure doubled.“The authors have been very adventurous,” said Daniel OConnor, a neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins University who studies touch. To him, that finding was very surprising.“Why does the world literally feel different when you are str

27、essed out?” he said. “This is the first step towards answering that question. It gives us a way to approach it with experimental rigor(严谨).”1、What contributed to humans being ticklish according to Aristotle?ATheir special skin. BTheir social pleasure.CTheir nervous system.

47、s, scientists said on Thursday. By December 2017 , the Chinese Academy of Sciences had created two clone macaques(猕猴) named“Zhong Zhong” and “Hua Hua”by nuclear transferring of body cellsany cell in the organism other than reproductive cells. This was the similar technology used to create the famous

48、 clone sheep Dolly in 1996.Telra, a monkey born in 1999 , is the worlds first ever-cloned monkey, but it was done using a simpler method called embryo splitting(胚胎分裂)，and cannot be genetically modified to suit experimental needs, said Pu Muming, a leading researcher at the Chinese Academy of Science

49、s. Cloning a monkey using body cells has been a world-class challenge because it is a primate(灵长类)that shares its genetic makeup, therefore all of its complexity, with humans, he said.For drug and other lab tests, scientists have to purchase monkeys from all over the world, which is costly, bad for

50、the environment and produces inaccurate results because each monkey might have different genes, Pu said.By cloning monkey using body cells, we can mass reproduce a large number of genetically identical monkeys in a short amount of time, and we can even change their genes to suit our needs, he added.

51、 “This can save time, cut down experiment costs, and produce more accurate results, leading to more effective medicine.”Sun Qiang, director of the non-human primate research facility at the institute, said most of the drug trials are currently done on lab mice. However, drugs that work on mice might

52、 not work or even have severe side effects on humans because the two species are so different.Monkeys and humans are both primates, so they are much closely related and testing on monkeys is supposed to be as effective as testing on humans. This achievement will help China lead the world research in

53、 an international science project related to study of primate brains.1、Which description of the two clone macaques is true?AThey were the first monkeys ever-cloned in the world.BThey were created using reproductive cells.CThey would be fed to suit experimental needs.DThe technology used to create th

54、em was similar to that of creating Dolly.2、The underlined word in the fourth paragraph is closest to “ ”in meaning.AsameBsimilarCrelevantDclose3、What can be learned from the passage?APu Muming and Sun Qiang were doing most work in cloning the two macaques.BGenetic research on monkeys can be seen as

55、effective as that on humans.CMost drug trials have been done on mice because mice share the same genetic makeup and complexity with humans.DScientists can mass reproduce cloned monkeys to cut down experiment costs.4、This passage above can be most probably read inAa science magazineBa guidebookCa sci
