Everyone knows that if a dog’s ears are up and its tail is wagging energetically, it is definitely pleased to see you. but now scientists using a robot have found that the way dogs use their tails is more complicated th an we thought, and that dogs which wag them to the left may he more friendly. The animal psychologists discovered that when real dogs approached a life-sized robot dog, they were less cautious about it when it was wagging its tail to the left, while if it was wagging its tail to the right, far fewer dogs approached it in a confident manner.
In the first experiments, 56 percent of the animals approached the model without hesitation when the tail was wagged to the left, while only 21 percent did so in the other situation. When the researchers excluded(排除)owners from being present, the result were: 31 percent of the dogs
approached continuously when the tail was wagging to the left, while only 18 percent did so when it was on the right.
Animal psychologist Roger Mugford said it added to the growing evidence that does were even more complicated comm unicators than the animals more closely related to man such as monkeys. He said, “We know that dogs, in a sense, have languages, but it is more complicated because it is not just them wagging their tails, but also giving out chemical displays.”
He adds, “The research confirms earlier studies suggesting that dogs, like humans, had a left-side preference. If you are going to present a signal to a dog, it is sensible to put it on your left-hand side because that is where dogs, unlike most other animals, tend to look. It is another example of the similarity betwe en dogs and humans. They are a lot more human than we give them credit for.”
1.What does it tell us if a dog wags its tail to the right?
A. It was very energetic B. It was in a bad mood
C. It might be unfriendly D. It must be confident
2.What can be inferred from the second paragraph?
A. Some dogs approach the robot dog confidently
B. Most dogs were afraid to approach the robot dog
C. Some dogs lack confidence with their owners present
D. Dog owners may influence the behaviour of their pets
3.What can we learn from animal psychologist’s experiments?
A. Dogs can communicate more than human beings
B. Dogs have more complicated emotions than monkeys
C. Dogs’ tail-wagging conveys more information than previously believed
D. Dogs’ intelligence can be much higher than any other kind of animal
4.What can we infer from Roger Mugfords words?
A. The Left-side preference should be studied further
B. Dogs have more in common with humans than we think
C. No other animals show the left-side preference except dogs
D. Dogs have a more complicated language than we people do

In my memory, my hometown was small village, but it was beautiful. When I was young, I was liked swimming in the river. The water was so clean that I could see fishes in them. As I missed my hometown, I go back home last week. Unlucky, I found the place in my memory was not like that it was. The water was dirt and the river was polluted so seriously! I couldn’t believe it.

Benjamin West, the father of American painting, showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age. But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one. In those days, a brush was made from camel’s hair. There were no camels nearby. Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead. He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush.
The brush did not last long. Soon Benjamin needed more fur. Before long, the catbegan to look ragged （蓬乱）. His father said that the cat must be sick. Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing.
