     There are varieties of bee in the world. Scientists are interested in honeybees because of the "language" they
use to communicate with each other. Karl von Frisch, a professor from Austria, devoted many years of his life
to researching the ways honey-bees communicate in their hives (蜂房). Karl von Frisch built special hives, a
glass wall and painted some honey-bees with different colors.
     A marked bee which returned to the hive from the feeding table performed a dance on the surface of the
honeycomb (蜂巢). First it made a circle to the right, then to the left. It repeated these circles again and again.
The surrounding bees copied its dances and then they left for the feeding place.
     Karl von Frisch set up two feeding places. One was close to the hive the other was farther away. The bees
that had been at the nearby feeding place were doing the circling dance. The bees at the distant feeding place
were dancing differently. The dancer ran in a straight line, wagging (摇摆) from side to side. Then it turned in
a semicircle (半圆), ran straight again, and turned in another semicircle to the opposite side. It repeated the
dance over and over. The dances convey messages about the far-away feeding place. Karl von Frisch and his
assistants slowly moved a feeding place close to the hive farther and farther away and they counted how many
times the bees repeated the dance in one minute. Finally they found out the number of wagging dances per
minute told the exact distance to the feeding place.

Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills(读写能力). With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudgmental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence, according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt Lake City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs (READ).
The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache.” said Lisa Myton, manager of the children’s department.
Last November the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children’s department of the main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a “pawgraphed” book at the last class.
The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April. According to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.
【小题1】.What is mainly discussed in the text?

A.dogs are young children’s best friends

A.accepts the idea put forward by ITAB.uses dogs to attract children
C.has opened a children’s departmentD.has decided to train some dogs
