Whoever is around is your friend. As humans get older, they bee more selective (講 究的 ) in choosing whom they spend time with, as well as how they spend their time. According to a new study, the same goes for monkeys. The findings, in the journal Cell Biology, suggest human selectivity may be a very strong part of our evolutionary history (進(jìn)化史 ). “An important finding suggests that humans bee more socially selective when they know that their remaining life time is limited, such as in old age,” Professor Laura Almeling explained. “We don?t think that monkeys are aware of their own limited future time. Therefore, if they show similar changes in old age, their selectivity cannot be attributed to their knowledge about a limited future time,” she continued. Researchers showed a variety of new animal toys, only one of which included a food treat, to a group of African monkeys. Young monkeys quickly grew out of their interest in the toys, preferring only the object that included food once they grew up. Researchers also measured how monkeys? social activities change as they age, by watching and measuring their responses to pictures and sounds of friends. Although older monkeys still took part in and remained interested in group activities, they put less time and energy into social relationships. “With increasing age, the monkeys became more selective in their social activities,” Almeling said. “They had fewer ?friends? and put less time into social activities. Interestingly, however, they were still interested in what was going on in their social world. Older females continued to respond particularly strongly to hearing a scream for help from their best friend,” Almeling explained. “Older males still liked to look at pictures of the newborns,” she said. 32.
