Research on animal intelligence always makes us wonder just how smart humans are. 【B1】 the fruit-fly experiments described by Carl Zimmer in the Science Times. Fruit flies who were taught to be smarter than the average fruit fly 【B2】 to live shorter lives. This suggests that 【B3】 bulbs burn longer, that there is a(n) 【B4】 in not being too bright.
Intelligence, it 【B5】, is a high-priced option. It takes more upkeep, burns more fuel and is slow 【B6】 the starting line because it depends on learning — a(n) 【B7】 process — instead of instinct. Plenty of other species are able to learn, and one of the things they’ve apparently learned is when to 【B8】.
Is there an adaptive value to 【B9】 intelligence? That’s the question behind this new research. Instead of casting a wistful glance 【B10】 at all the species we’ve left in the dust I.Q.-wise, it implicitly asks what the real 【B11】 of our own intelligence might be. This is 【B12】 the mind of every animal we’ve ever met.
Research on animal intelligence also makes us wonder what experiments animals would 【B13】 on humans if they had the chance. Every cat with an owner, 【B14】, is running a small-scale study in operant conditioning. We believe that 【B15】 animals ran the labs, they would test us to 【B16】 the limits of our patience, our faithfulness, our memory for locations. They would try to decide what intelligence in humans is really 【B17】, not merely how much of it there is. 【B18】, they would hope to study a(n) 【B19】 question: Are humans actually aware of the world they live in? 【B20】 the results are inconclusive.
选项
A、Suppose
B、Consider
C、Observe
D、Imagine
答案
B
解析
本题考查动词词义的辨析。各选项的意思分别是:A.Suppose(假设),B.Consider(考虑):C. Observe(观察);D,Imagine(想象)。根据其后面的宾语“the fruit-fly experiments described...”,代入文中表示“考虑《科学时代》杂志中所描述过的试验”,与首句中提及的有关研究相呼应,符合语境。故选B.
