The passage implies that which one of the following is an example of psychological process that can be influenced by the amount of serotonin? (A) concentrated thinking when undisturbed (B) increase in the speed of conscious response to an familiar object (C) full understanding of a profound subject (D) the abnormity of child cognitive development (E) the regular patterns in human awareness of an unfamiliar object In his new book Doctor Dolittle39。, which is often taken to show that they have a 39。 subjective experience, rather than a map of the external world. 2段提煉: Bees: subjective vs. map We are evolutionarily closer to other primates than to bees. Once again, their systems of (35) munication are less similar to human language than is popularly supposed. Vervet monkeys have distinct alarm calls for leopards, eagles and snakes. These calls can be extended to new types of threat — humans, for instance —and they are under(40) some degree of voluntary control, yet they do not seem to 39。, Anderson also outlines what is special about (50) human language: in a word, syntax. Our vocabularies are dramatically larger than those of other animals, and our sound systems are more plex, but the essential design property of human language is syntax — the way we use(55) binations of words to convey meaning. This concept is alien to the munication systems of other species. Thus, it is true that what animals learn is impressive and their cognitive abilities may be remarkable, but they never master (60) anything like a human language and seem incapable of doing so: the plexity of their grammar is not remotely parable to ours. With examples of putative and actual forms of languages drawn from a variety of disciplines(65) such as linguistics, ecology, and anthropology, Anderson ably proves that there exists some property only humans have the privilege and honor to possess, though one may still wonder what constitutes the very syntax of human (70) language and other forms of social munication which supposedly largely distinguish humans from their ecological neighbors . 4段提煉: Human: syntax … ably / wonder 全文結(jié)構(gòu)圖: 1.

According to the passage, Anderson’s book addressing languages in human beings and animals differs from other accounts in that it (A) provides an illuminating account of municative cognitive powers of a variety of animals as well as of humans.(B) offers a series of parisons of animals’ information processing systems with those of human beings. (C) highlights the differences between the munication devices animals are equipped with and their much more refined counterparts in humans.(D) emphasizes our uniqueness 。 to the respective animals in the way we refer with our language. The calls can affect behaviour but not knowledge. Similarly, attempts to teach American Sign Language to chimpanzees(45) have made it clear that, although human infants read intentions into the actions of others, chimps never do.3段提煉: Primate
