1.___________
Pet-keeping is a time-honored tradition. One of the reasons for people to raise to raise dogs or cows was usefulness. While people in the past hunted animals and kept them in their backyards, the civilized man today is less cruel towards them and is less exploitative(利用的).
2.___________
We keep animals as pets because they are attractive. We all have the urge to possess something that has aesthetic value, and that is why we treasure paintings or fine furniture. Keeping pets is one form of this urge. A Siamese cat in the house can be a decorative objective. Pets are playful animals and they amuse us. A little rabbit amuses us by its playful and lively runs.
3.___________
Many parents find it helpful to have pets in their house and for their children. Having pets is an excellent way of developing in children the love of animals and responsibility. Children get the opportunity to take on full responsibility for another creature’s life. It will be an educational experience for a child to watch the natural life cycle of an animal. There are psychological benefits for children. Pets are welcome friends for children who are lonely. Pets are excellent companions. Keeping pets means giving love and being loved. We find comfort in giving care and receiving care in return. We get pleasure from their appreciation and their behavior.
4. ___________
As more people move into apartments, there are limitations on keeping of animals like dogs and monkeys. Therefore, caged animals have increased in popularity. Birds fall into this type. We keep them for their beautiful songs and feathers. Fishing keeping is a widespread hobby and the keeper can observe their behavior in the glass tank and study its entire life cycle. The cat is a fine house pet and it fits neatly into human habitation(居住地) without requiring its own cage. They are wonderful hunters, if there are rats around.
5.___________
Pets satisfy man’s desire to care for a bit of nature. The pet owner has the responsibility for supplying those needs nature provides. Pets are amusing and entertaining, but we are in a way doing animals harm by making them live in a human environment. Are we not enslaving(奴役)them?

Could your next pet be a goat? New research suggests that these farm animals try to communicate with people in the same way that dogs and horses do. In a series of experiments, researchers found that when the animals had a problem that they couldn’t solve alone，the goats would gaze at a person for help. The research also shows that goats will change their actions according to a person’s behavior.
Goats were the first domesticated（驯化为）livestock species, about 10,000 years ago, according to Alan McElligott. “From our earlier research, we already know that goats are smarter than people think, but these results show how they can communicate and interact with people even though they were not domesticated as pets or working animals，” McElligott said in a statement.
To test the goats’ communication skills, the researchers trained the animals to remove the lid from a box to receive a reward. The reward was then made inaccessible（得不到的，不能接近的）, and the goats’ reactions toward the experimenters—who were either facing the goats or had turned away—were recorded. The researchers found that the goats would gaze at the forward-facing person more often, and for longer periods of time. Sometimes, the goats would also approach the forward-facing person before returning to the box.
“Goats gaze at humans in the same way as dogs when asking for a treat that is out of reach，” study researcher Christian Nawroth said in the same statement. “Our results provide strong evidence for communication directed at humans in a species that was domesticated mainly for agricultural product, and goats show similarities with animals bred to become pets or working animals，such as dogs and horses.”
The authors said that they hope the study will help people to better understand domesticated animals like goats, dogs and horses, and how they interact with humans.
1.The underlined word “they” in the first paragraph refers to .
A. the researchers B. the horses
C. the goats D. the dogs
2.What did the goats do after they couldn’t receive the reward?
A. They refused to remove the lid.
B. They stared at the experimenters.
C. They turned away.
D. They returned to the box quickly.
3.What is the aim of the research?
A. To study the habits of animals in order to understand their feelings.
B. To raise more domesticated animals like goats, dogs and horses.
C. To show the similarity between goats and dogs.
D. To make people better understand domesticated animals.
