Research on animal intelligence always makes me wonder just how smart humans are.【C1】______ the fruit-fly experiments described by Carl Zimmer’ s piece in the Science Times. Fruit flies who were taught to be smarter than the average fruit fly【C2】______to live shorter lives. This suggests that【C3】______ bulbs burn longer, that there is an【C4】______in not being too bright.
Intelligence, it【C5】______, is a high-priced option. It takes more upkeep, burns more fuel and is slow【C6】______the starting line because it depends on learning—a(n)【C7】______process—instead of instinct. Plenty of other species are able to learn, and one of the things they’ve apparently learned is when to【C8】______.
Is there an adaptive value to【C9】______intelligence? That’ s the question behind this new research. Instead of casting a wistful glance【C10】______at all the species we’ve left in the dust I.Q.-wise, it implicitly asks what the real【C11】______of our own intelligence might be. This is【C12】______the mind of every animal we’ ve ever met.
Research on animal intelligence also makes us wonder what experiments animals would【C13】______ on humans if they had the chance. Every cat with an owner,【C14】______, is running a small-scale study in operant conditioning. We believe that【C15】______animals ran the labs, they would test us to【C16】______the limits of our patience, our faithfulness, our memory for locations. They would try to decide what intelligence in humans is really【C17】______, not merely how much of it there is.【C18】______, they would hope to study a(n)【C19】______question; Are humans actually aware of the world they live in?【C20】______the results are inconclusive.
【C2】
选项
A、tended
B、feared
C、happened
D、threatened
答案
A
解析
考查动词辨析。此处意为“通过训练变得更聪明的果蝇,其寿命往往比普通果蝇短”,这是实验中经常发生的情况,tend to“易于,趋向做…”,因此选A.tended。fear to“害怕做…”,happen to“碰巧做…”,threaten to“威胁要做…”,均不合理。
