Many kinds of animals have ways of<br /> communicating with each other. And one of the most interesting examples is that of bees. These insects<br /> communicate with each other by dancing. The most important kind of dance that they do is concerned with<br /> food. They get their food from flowers, of course, from plants and trees. When a bee has found some food, it<br /> returns to the other bees and can give them three basic kinds of information about the food: which direction it is<br /> in, whether it is nearby or a long way away, and whether it is good to eat or poisonous.<br /> The other kind of system of communication of animals is artificial. It means animals learn it; in this case,<br /> they learn from man. Several famous experiments have been carried out with chimpanzees, trying to teach them<br /> human language.<br /> One of these experiments was done with a chimpanzee called Sarah. Sarah was taught to understand a<br /> system of symbols which represented words. The symbols were cut out of coloured plastic, and each different<br /> shape stood for a different word. For example, a red square stood for “banana”, Sarah’s favorite fruit. Soon<br /> Sarah could not only understand words, but even sentences. She could obey orders: if her human friends put<br /> down the symbols for “apple in cup”, she would put the apple in the cup. Later, she began giving the scientists<br /> orders – she was writing her own sentences, and she got upset if the scientists did not obey her. We do not yet<br /> know whether chimpanzees will ever learn to use language to communicate as freely as human beings do, but<br /> the results so far suggest that this is at least a possibility.<br /> 46. According to the passage, bees ____________________________________.<br /> A. learn to communicate<br /> B. are born to be able to communicate<br /> C. are the most interesting animals<br /> D. communicate with each other by flying<br /> 47. From the passage, we can conclude that bees are _____________________.<br /> A. so selfish as to let other bees share the bad food<br /> B. so selfish as to look for food for themselves<br /> C. so hardworking that they dance all the time<br /> D. so smart that they know where the food is<br /> 48. The experiment done with Sarah is an example of ____________________.<br /> A. animals with natural system of communication<br /> B. animals able to communicate with humans<br /> <br /> C. animals possible to use language as humans<br /> D. animals with a system of communication worked out by humans<br /> 49. The results of the experiment with chimpanzees show the possibility to teach animals _____.<br /> A. how to use language freely<br /> B. how to give orders<br /> C. how to obey orders<br /> D. how to understand words and sentences<br /> 50.
