You either have it, or you don’t—a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?

Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, _______ it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it.

“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around.” Says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they _______ develop the skills.”

Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to _______ their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:

If you are using a _______ turn it so it relates to the way you are facing. If you leave your bike in a _______ place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.

Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know _______ you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.

Now you need never get lost again!

So, what do you do? Set aside a time each day for study and a time For __4. You may have less time to relax than usual, but you still need to let your brain rest for a few moments. Get plenty of sleep. If you are_ 5, information will not stick in your memory. Finally, eat healthy food that fuels your body and mind.

Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a change in number. Human beings are born with this ability. ______________, experiments show that many animals are, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest (巢) has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will notice. However, if you remove two, the bird generally leaves. This means that the bird ______________the difference between two and three.

Another interesting experiment showed a bird's______________number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow (乌鸦) that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not______________ until the man left the tower. The man had an idea. He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they weren't successful in fooling the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was_______________with three men and then with four men. It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they finally managed to take a photo.

How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old______________ notice if something is taken away from a small group. But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are often very confused.

It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human ability is not much better than a crow's.
