【正文】 found those being trained to read angry expressions took a longer time to learn. They guess it may be because dogs find angry faces disgusting, causing them to withdraw quickly. However, once the smart dogs realized they were getting rewarded, the trepidation seemed to disappear. In fact, the dogs had such a good time playing the puter game That scientists had a hard time keeping them away from the touch screens after the study was pleted.s because the scientists believe humans show their emotions on their entire face. For their study, biologist Corson Miller and his team exposes eleven selected dogs to digital images of women that were either angry or happy. Half the dogs were rewarded for touching the screen when shown a happy face, while the other half got their treat for selecting those that appeared angry. 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇科普類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。s ears to help them detect the sound of approaching insects.”及全文內(nèi)容可知，文章主要講述人與植物的交流可以促其生長(zhǎng)。 （4）考查主旨大意。從而推斷可知，園丁經(jīng)常與植物交談，生長(zhǎng)得更好。 （3）考查推理判斷。從而推斷可知，在叢林里的植物生長(zhǎng)得更好。根據(jù)第三段中的“However, Prof Hadany said a plant39。故選B。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。s voices improve plants39。D.Plants can39。B.Flowers can hear.Plants respond to sounds slowly and ecologically.D.Prince Charles proves kind of stupid.B.D.In the woods.B.On a square.D.Brighter color.B.Longer bloom. response to bees39。s voices were at the right frequency for the plants to hear.（1）What39。 ability to hear has implications well beyond pollination—plants could potentially hear and respond to herbivores, other animals, the elements, and possibly other plants, Prof Hadany added.s ability to respond to pollinators may be weakened in city environments or beside a busy road. While plants require water, sunlight and the right temperature to grow, it is widely believed they do not have senses in the way animals do. When the researchers played recordings of flying bees to evening primrose flowers, within three minutes the sugar concentrations in the nectar (花蜜) of its flowers increased. The fluid, produced to attract pollinating (授粉) insects, was on average 20 percent higher in flowers exposed to the buzz pared to those left in silence or exposed to higher pitched sounds.

Now thanks to some researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna, Austria, we finally have some convincing evidence. Interestingly, the dogs were not provided with the entire face. Some dogs were shown only upper halves while the others observed lower halves. That39。 After some training like how to recognize small differences like the wrinkles between the eyes or the changes in their shape that acpany the happy or angry expressions, the dogs were mostly able to identify the correct expression not only on a familiar face but on a strange face. The researchers concluded the dogs were smart enough to read human emotions. The researchers also noticed only dogs with a male owner had a harder time understanding the expressions correctly. Since the touchscreen models were all females, this confirmed what has been observed in previous studies dogs are more efficient at reading facial expressions of people that are the same gender as their owner.（1）How did the scientis
