Baby girls make their way to dolls as soon as they can crawl, while boys will head for the toy cars,　 a study has shown. The findings, the first to show consistent differences in very young babies, suggest there is a biological basis to their preferences.

Psychologists Dr Brenda Todd from City University London carried out an experiment involving 90 babies aged nine months to 36 months. They were allowed to choose from seven toys. Some were boys' toys - a car, a digger, a ball and a blue teddy.　 The rest were girls’ toys: a pink teddy, a doll and a cooking set. They were placed a meter away from the toys, and could pick whichever toy they liked. Their choice and the amount of time they spent playing with each toy were recorded.

Of the youngest children (nine to 14 months), girls spent much longer playing with the doll than boys, and boys spent much more time with the car and ball than the girls did. Among the two-and three-year-olds, girls spent 50 percent of the time playing with the doll while only two boys briefly touched it. The boys spent almost 90 percent of their time playing with cars, which the girls barely touched. There was no link between the parents’ view on which toys were more appropriate for boys or girls, and the children’s choice.

Dr Brenda Todd said: “Children of this age are already exposed to much socialization. Boys may be given ‘toys that go’ while girls get toys they can care for, which may help shape their preference. But these findings agree with the former idea that children show natural interests in particular kinds of toys. There could be a biological basis for their choices. Males through evolution have been adapted to prefer moving objects, probably through hunting instincts（本能）, while girls prefer warmer colors such as pink, the color of a newborn baby.”

Elephants are famous for their supposedly excellent memory. Now it seems that they are good at simple math too.

Researchers at the University of Tokyo have found an Asian elephant named Ashya can add small quantities together and correctly identify(识别）which is larger.

For example ,when researcher Naoko dropped three apples into one bucket and one apple into a second, then four more apples into the first and five into the second, Ashya correctly identified that the first bucket contained more apples and began munching(嚼）on her tasty prize.

Ashya chose the correct bucket 74% of the time "I even get confused when "I'm dropping the apple," Naoko told New Scientist magazine.

Elephants' counting abilities are far from unique. Chimps, pigeons(鸽子)and dolphins have shown the same abilities in lab tests, but what is more impressive for Elephants is that their ability to tell between two figures does not get worse when those numbers are more similar.

The elephants that Naoko tested were as good at telling the difference between five and six as they were at telling between five and one.

Naoko presented her findings last week at the International Society annual meeting in New York.

It is not obvious why elephants should need this mathematical ability in the wild." It is really tough to figure out why elephants would need to count," said Mya, a professor at Cornell University who studies elephants.

One possibility is that they use it to keep track of other members of their herd(兽群）so that no one is left behind. Asian elephants live in groups of six to eight." You really don't want to lose your group members," said Mya.

Another possibility is that the ability for simple math might be a by-product(副产品）of natural selection for a larger brain.

68.The experiments researchers have done recently show that elephants can____.

A. memorize things correctly      B. munch on apples

C. do some simple math          D. change small quantities into larger ones

69.What does the underlined word" tough" in Paragraph 8 mean?

A. Difficult        B. Impossible     C. Easy      D. Useful

70.The reason why elephants need to count is possibly that_____.

A. they want to exercise their brains

B .they often count the members of their herd

C. they hope to stay in groups

D. they have taken regular training

Dogs are wonderful companions all their own, but they can also help change your life so that you’re more accepting of new friendships. A new study studied how dogs’ brains responded to the human voice and found that “the human brain responds to dog emotions the same way it responds to human emotions” and that the dog’s brain does the same.

Dogs are pack animals, so in terms of pet ownership, your dog will prefer to stay with you rather than somewhere alone. Think about how this concept applies to friendship. People today are getting more and more used to spending time on social networking, email, and text. While all methods of communication are good, there is nothing like seeing your friends and hearing their voice. With good friends, sometimes a look explains everything, and you can only get this when you’re together hanging out in person.

Let’s face it, dogs never hide their feeling. They let you know what they enjoy doing most, whether it is chasing a ball, going for a walk, or getting a treat. For people, it’s harder to be open with your emotions. But in order to truly find a friend, you’ll need to let go of your fears and put trust into your friends. The reality is that you’ll never make everyone you meet happy one-hundred percent of the time, so if your friends and family think you’re great, put aside the need to be liked by everyone.

Dogs wait for you to come home and are so happy to see you again that they practically do a happy dance when you walk through the door. Friends, on the other hand, are sometimes so busy that even hearing from a friend becomes an unwelcome interruption. Rather than avoid calls or emails, make a point to talk to friends on a regular basis.

1.According to the text, dogs　　　 .

A. will become human’s only friends

B. can help people make their friends

C. are good at finding friendly humans

D. have similar brains to humans’

2.What are pack animals?

A. Animals that like to stay with others

B. Animals often owned by humans as pets

C. Animals preferring to do everything alone

D. Animals that people like to stay together with

3.To keep a friendship, the author advises that one should　　　 .

A. rely totally on social networking

B. try to hide his true feeling from others

C. attempt to make himself liked by everyone else

D. communicate with friends face to face more ofter

4.Why dogs often do a dance when the owners come back?

A. They need something to eat

B. They owners bring something nice

C. They are happy to see the owners back

D. They are afraid the owners will leave again
