The baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert (警觉). Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze(凝视) starts to lose its focus - until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns; she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?
Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects(a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise(同样地) when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.
【小题1】The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby’s ______.
| A．sense of hearing. |
| B．sense of sight. |
| C．sense of touch. |
| D．sense of smell. |
| A．the size of cards. |
| B．the colour of pictures. |
| C．the shape of patterns. |
| D．the number of objects. |
| A．To reduce the difficulty of the experiment. |
| B．To see how babies recognize sounds. |
| C．To carry their experiment further. |
| D．To keep the babies’ interest. |
| A．Science fiction. |
| B．Children’s literature. |

Man is the most intelligent animal created by God because God has given him language which other animals do not have. Communication makes life extremely convenient and easy. Language plays a very important role in life as any emotion can be easily and effectively conveyed (传递) through language to anyone. But all this is applicable and beneficial only to human beings. What about animals? How do they communicate with each other?
We all know that animals do not have the ability to use language as a medium for communication. But they do have other means of conveying messages to other animals, of which use of body language is the most important one. The messages can be of many types like conveying food location, danger alarms, appreciation of good deeds like helping other animals in dangerous situations, etc. There are two main types of communication in animals: verbal (语言的) communication and non-verbal communication.
Sound is one of the most common types of verbal communication in animals, and majority of the species use it as the medium to convey messages. Bats have to rely on sound waves to communicate. They mostly rest in the morning and become active at night to search for food and do other tasks. All the birds communicate through their chirping. Mammals generally make use of sounds to give calls to other members of their community. Whales are the perfect examples, which use sound waves for communication. They have a whale song, which they repeat after regular intervals.
Facial Expressions
This kind of communication is mostly found in dogs. When they are angry, they show their teeth and raise their ears. On the other hand, when they are frightened, they pull their ears behind and open their mouth. Also, in birds, when the parent bird brings food for the offspring, the begging expression can be observed on the offspring’s face.
Gestures and Body Movements
This type of communication is common not only in animals, but in human beings too. All human beings, although they use language for communication, tend to use gestures and body movements as well while communicating. Honey bees are the most enthusiastic creatures on earth because they dance to communicate. Some bees dance in the hive (蜂箱) so that other bees get signals of the location of the honey comb. A deer waves its tail to warn others of coming danger.
51. What does this passage mainly talk about?
A. What messages animals can convey.
B. Why life is easier for human beings.
C. Why man is the most intelligent animal.
D. How animals communicate with each other.
52. Our life is more convenient and easier owing to the fact that ______.
A. other animals do not have any emotion
B. we can communicate with each other through language
C. we also use body movements while communicating
D. other animals use sounds to give calls to their members
53. What’s the most important way for animals to convey messages?
A. Use of body language.
B. Use of sounds.
C. Use of facial expressions.
D. Use of dancing.
54. When a dog pulls its ears behind with the mouth open, we can tell it ______.
A. is angry
B. is frightened
C. has been begging for food
D. has eaten too much
55. Which of the following doesn’t belong to non-verbal communication?
A. The begging expression.
B. Relying on sound waves.
C. Dancing.
D. Waving tails.
