阅读短文,根据要求完成下面各小题。

Last month some parents visited a pizza restaurant in Florida with their children. On the door, they saw a sign “NO CHILDREN.” “Why can't we bring our children?” “What on earth does the owner want to do?” The parents were surprised and complained angrily.

So why did the restaurant put up the sign on its door?

Troy Taylor, the owner of the pizza restaurant, found that many parents couldn't control their children and many children couldn't have meals quietly, so they disturbed other customers. Some people said that this was unfair. Mr. Taylor explained his decision . He said that the restaurant was near a busy road, so there might be some danger if the parents didn’t take good care of their children. So he made up his mind to ban(禁止)children from his restaurant.

Others supported his decision, they said they were bored of noisy children in restaurants and

now they could finally have a place for adults only.

83 In fact,many other restaurants have also met the same problem. Some have done nothing and others have tried to ban children during certain times of the day. There’s one restaurant in Italy. It has been creative in dealing with the problem. They rewarded(奖励) well-behaved children to encourage parents to control their children.

84These methods may be useful for a while, but it is difficult to solve this problem completely.

“You have saved my horse,” Queen Olivia told the young boy standing before her. “Now you shall get a gift for what you did.” Peter nervously ran his fingers through his brown hair. That day when he was working in the field, the shocked horse ran past him. Without thinking, he rushed out and controlled it. He didn’t know it was the Queen’s horse and never expected to get a gift. But he still felt happy for getting one.

Two of the queen’s men appeared. One carried a mirror. Red jewels(珠宝) shone on top of the mirror’s silver frame(框架). The other carried a wooden cage with a chicken inside it.

“Only one gift can be yours,” the queen said. “Choose wisely.” “That’s easy,” Peter said. “I’ll take the chicken.” Some of the queen’s men laughed. It was clear that they thought he had made a foolish choice. 

“And why did you choose the chicken?” the queen asked. “Well, I don’t know much about jewels,” Peter answered. “But I do know about chickens. The chicken will provide eggs for my family for a long while.”

Queen Olivia smiled. “Then you did make a wise choice,” she said. “That mirror may look beautiful. But the jewels you see are only colored glass, and the frame is painted silver. The chicken is much more valuable.” Peter took the chicken and bowed. “Thank you, your majesty.”

“You are a smart child,” the queen added. “I could use a smart boy to help take care of my horses. Would you like to take the job?” Peter smiled. “Thank you very much!” he said excitedly. A job at the castle paid well. Now his family wouldn’t worry about their food any more--all because he was kind to help others and smart enough to make the right choice!

When an animal helps another animal, it usually gets something valuable in return For a long time, many scientists thought that only people could act generously just because it felt good.

However, a new study in Germany suggests that chimpanzees (an animal like a large monkey without a tail ) also do good things for.no real reason And so do children who are as young as 18 months old. Maybe it is because humans and chimpanzees share an ancestor about 6 million years ago,

"People and chimpanzees appear to develop such features without any other

training," says Warneken, a scientist in Germany.

Warneken and his partners worked on adult chimpanzees that live on an island in

the African country of Uganda They also worked with 18-month-old children in Germany. The researchers performed three experiments on the adult chimpanzees and two experiments on the kids. In the first animal experiment, a person tried to reach his arm into a cage to get a stick, but he couldn't reach it. A chimpanzee was in the cage, and it could reach the stick if it wanted to.

Thirty-six chimpanzees took part in this experiment one by one, and no chimpanzee saw what the other chimpanzees had done. Even though the animals hadn't met the person before, they usually took the stick and gave it to the person What's more, they did this whether or not the person offered them bananas as a reward. In a similar experiment, 36 children acted in a similar way. They helped the person reach the stick, whether or not they were offered toys for their help.

Researchers did other experiments on chimpanzees and babies. No rewards were offered in either experiment. And still, both the chimpanzees and children went out of their way to help. Still, the new study is different from earlier findings. Researchers have found that chimpanzees don't give rewards of food to other chimpanzees, even if it costs them nothing to be generous.

1.A new study in Germany suggests that _ .

A. people also share information for good reasons

B. children know something at the age of 18 months

C. chimpanzees also do good things for no real reason

D. humans should develop their abilities 6 million years ago

2.Warneken and his partners worked with _ .

A. young chimpanzees that live on an island

B. 18-month-old children who live in Germany

C. kids who are living with adult chimpanzees

D. adult chimpanzees that live on the African mountain

3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. The animals hadn't met the person before the experiments.

B. No chimpanzee saw what the other chimpanzees had done.

C. The chimpanzees gave the person the stick in order to get a reward.

D. Thirty-six chimpanzees joined in this experiment one by one.

4.In a similar experiment, thirty-six children helped the person reach the stick

A. If they were offered toys for their work

B. when they were asked to give him a hand

C. after they were ordered to act in a similar way

D. whether they were given toys for their help or not

5.From the passage we know that _

A. children are more generous than chimpanzees m some ways

B. chimpanzees will reward good food to other chimpanzees

C. both chimpanzees and children can find their way to help others

D. both chimpanzees and children can do the difficult experiments
