Just like children, they use a “ look and learn” ways when they go about their tasks.Scientists at Oxford universities

18、. In the first part of the test, Group1 were rewarded with a piece of meat for copying their owners actions. Group2 were rewarded with food for not copying and using other ways.

25、enu(菜单), we could make some of the food before they came, and they wouldnt have to wait so long for their meals,” said one of the brothers.
