二、阅读理解

 Chimps will cooperate in certain ways, like gathering in war parties to protect their territory*. But except that, they have little instinct* to help one another. Chimps in the wild seek food for themselves. Even chimp mothers regularly refuse to share food with their children, who are able from a young age to gather their own food.

In the laboratory, chimps don’t naturally share food either. If a chimp is put in a cage where he can pull one plate of food for himself or, with no great effort, a plate that also provides food for a neighbor to the next cage, he will pull at random* — he just doesn’t care whether his neighbor gets fed or not. Chimps are truly selfish.

Human children, on the other hand, are naturally cooperative. From the earliest ages, they decide to help others, to share information and to participate in achieving common goals. The psychologist Michael Tomasello has studied this cooperativeness in a series of expensive with very young children. He finds that if babies aged 18 months see a worried adult with hands full trying to open a door, almost all will immediately try to help.

There are several reasons to believe that the abilities help, inform and share are not taught, but naturally possessed in young children. One is that these instincts appear at a very young age before most parents have started to train children to behave socially. Another is that the helping behaviors are not improved if the children are rewarded. A third reason is that social intelligence* develops in children before their general cognitive* skills, at least when compared with chimps. In tests conducted by Tomtasell, the human children did no better than the chimps on the physical world tests, but were considerably better at understanding the social world.

The cure of what children’s minds have and chimps’ don’t in what Tomasello calls shared intentionality*. Part of this ability is that they can infer what others know or are thinking. But beyond that, even very young children want to be part of a shared purpose. They actively seek to be part of a “we”, a group that intends to work toward a shared goal.

11．What can we learn from the experiment with chimp?

A．Chimps seldom care about others. B．Chimps often provide food with their children.

C．Chimps like to take their neighbors’ food. D．Chimps naturally share food with each other.

12．What does the underlined word “possessed” in Paragraph 4 means ________.

A．owned B．appeared C．managed D．controlled

13．Michael Tomasello’s tests on young children show that they ________.

A．like to make people hands B．know how to offer help to adults

C．have the instinct to help others D．know the world better than chimps

14．The passage is mainly about ________.

A．the helping actions of young people B．the differences between chimps and human children.

C．ways to train children’s shared intentionality D．cooperation as a special human instinct

    The most frightening words in the English language are, “Our computer is down.” You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.”

“If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.”

“I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.”

I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do all you people do?”

“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.”

“So when it goes down, you go down with it.”

“That’s good, sir.”

“How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know.

“I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There’s no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down it won’t answer us.”

After the girl told me they had no backup(备用) computer, I said. “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They’re still flying, aren’t they?”

“I couldn’t tell without asking the computer.”

“Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot(飞行员) if he’s flying to Washington,” I suggested.

“I don’t know which gate to send you to. Even if the pilot goes to Washington, he can’t take you if you don’t have a ticket.”

“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?”

“I wouldn’t know,” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only ‘IT’ knows. It can’t tell me.”

A．She could do nothing. B．She could write out a ticket.

C．She could still sell a ticket. D．She could answer passengers’ questions.

A．Low. B．Broken. C．Less. D．Dark.

23．The best title for the article is ________.

Last Sunday, when my parents went out shopping to buy food for lunch, I began to clean my house. First, I swept the floor and wiped the table. Then, I collected all the books and other things and put them in place. Finally, I took all the rubbish out. When my parents came back, they were surprised and praised me.
