What do you usually do to comfort your friends when they are sad? You probably pat them on the shoulder, or give them a warm hug.
We used to think that knowing when and how to comfort others was an ability that only humans have. But scientists have discovered that apes (猩猩) have this ability too.
Two researchers from Emory University in Atlanta, US, went to an Ape Protection Centre in Congo to study bonobos (倭黑猩猩), which are closely related to humans.
The researchers analyzed the bonobos’ reactions (反应) after more than 370 cases of stressful situations, such as fights and losing temper, and found that some bonobos rushed to hug those that were screaming after being attacked, just like humans would have done.
However, researchers found that not all bonobos were able to comfort others. In the protection center, many bonobos are orphans whose mothers were killed by hunters. They were found to be more worried in times of tension and have greater difficulty controlling their own emotions, making them worse at reaching out to help friends in need.
“Orphans, who have not had the benefit of a mother helping them handling their emotions, are much worse at comforting others,” Professor Frans de Waal told The Telegraph. “Bonobos with moms were able to curb their negative emotional reactions more quickly. Therefore, they pay more attention to others.”
This pattern mirrors the way that human children have been found to react. Those who are good at handling their own emotions—for example, those who can calm themselves down more quickly after upsetting experiences—are usually better at expressing their concerns for others.
1.The 5th paragraph is mainly developed by________.
A. making comparisons B. following time order
C. giving examples D. presenting causes and effects
2.The underlined word “curb” in the 6th paragraph probably means“________”.
A. express B. watch
C. hide D. control
3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Orphan bonobos never give a hand to friends.
B. There were 370 bonobos in the research.
C. Moms play an important role in dealing with kids’ emotions.
D. Only human beings have the ability to comfort others.
4.What’s the main purpose of this passage?
A. To provide better protection for Apes.
B. To inform readers of a new study.
C. To uncover the mystery of Apes.
D. To compare human behaviors with Apes’.
