28、 Vienna-based researchers showed that dogs doing a simple task when not rewarded if another dog, which continues to be rewarded, is present. The experiment consisted of taking pairs of dogs ting(發(fā)叮當(dāng)聲) them to present a paw for a reward. On giving the “handshake" the dogs received a piece of foo

29、d. One of the dogs was then asked to shake hands, but received no food. The other dog continued to get the food when it was asked to perform. The dog without the reward quickly stopped doing the task, and showed signs of anger or stress when its partner was rewarded. To make sure that the experiment

30、 was really showing the interaction between the dogs rather than just the annoyance of not being rewarded, a similar experiment was conducted where the dogs performed the task without the partner. Here continued to present the paw for much longer. Dr. Frederike Range from the University of Vienna sa

31、ys this shows that it was the presence of the rewarded partner that was the greater influence on their behavior. “The only difference is that one gets food and the other doesn't. They are responding to being unequally rewarded. ” she says. The researchers say this kind of behavior, where one ani

32、mal gets annoyed with what is happening with another, has only been observed in primates (靈長類) before. Studies with various types of monkeys and chimpanzees show they react not only to seeing their partners receiving; rewards when they are not, but also to the type of reward. The dog study also look

33、ed at whether the type of reward made a difference. Dogs were given either bread or sausage, but seemed to react equally to either. Dr. Range says this may be because they have been trained.56.

45、onable and the sights are beautiful D. good services are offered to those intending to stay in double roomsC In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity. Others say that competition i

46、s bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people. I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death aff

47、airs. In their single-minded pursuit (追求) of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten. However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary play

48、ers, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not tryi

49、ng, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesnt matter because I really didn't try. ” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the

50、 same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one's self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to relieve, can we

53、tors and those with a "desire to fail" ?A. One's worth lies in his performance compared with others.B. One's success in competition needs great efforts.C. One's achievement is determined by his particular skills.D. One's success is based on how hard he has tried.67. Which p

54、oint of view may the author agree to?A. Every effort should be paid back.B. Competition should be encouraged.C. Winning should be a life-and-death matter.D. Fear of failure should be removed in competition.D The United States has around 475,000 school buses. Each day they carry more than 25 million

55、children, half of all the schoolchildren in the country. These buses, on average, use 4 liters of diesel (柴油) fuel to travel less than 16 kilometers. When the school year began last fall, diesel averaged 55 cents a liter nationally. The price nearly doubled by the end of school in June. Bob Riley is

56、 the spokesman for the American School Bus Council. He says fuel prices negotiated (商議) for schools are not lower than others have to pay. As a result, schools are looking for ways to reduce transportation costs. Bus routes are being redrawn or, in some cases, canceled. Some areas are buying buses t

57、hat use natural gas or other alternative fuels. Other steps include fewer field trips and less travel by sports teams. Some school districts may end any bus service not required by law. Studies show that school buses are the safest form of transportation to and from school. The American School Bus Council says cut
