Question

【题目】Can animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one day animals may be taught to do a number of simple jobs. They say that in a film or on TV .We may see elephants, or monkeys, dogs, bears, or other animals doing a lot of things. If you watch carefully, you may find that those animals are always given something to eat in return(作为回报) for doing them. The scientists say that many different animals may be taught to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get something to eat in return.

Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and elephants can be used to do some heavy jobs. And we can also teach animals to work in factories. Apes(猿猴), for example, have been used in America to help make cars and scientists believe that these large monkeys may one day get in crops(收割庄稼) and even drive trains.

试题分析：本文围绕着“动物们能不能被用来为我们人类工作？”展开。众所周知，狗可以用来看家是因为它的灵敏、勇敢与忠诚；大象可以用来干一些重活是因为它的强壮。电影或电视中的一些动物知道他们将会因为所做的事得到回报，而为人类做一些简单的工作。在人类的指导下，美国的猿猴可以帮助人类制造小汽车。由此，科学家们相信未来人类可以训练许多动物来为我们人类做更多的事情。
