It’s well known that our human memory can fail us. People can be forgetful, and they can sometimes also “remember” things incorrectly, with damaging consequences in the classroom, courtroom, and other areas of life. Now, researchers show for the first time that bumblebees(大黄蜂) can be unreliable witnesses too.

Bumblebees are rather clever animals, which explains why Chittka has been studying learning and memory in the insects for the last 20 years.

Most times when people have studied memory in animals, errors in performance have been taken to mean that the animals failed to learn the task or perhaps learned it and then forgot. But what if animals can experience a more interesting type of memory failure?

To find out, Chittka first trained bumblebees to expect a reward when visiting a yellow artificial flower followed by one with black-and-white rings. During subsequent tests, bees were given a choice between three types of flowers. Two were the types they’d seen in the training before. The third had yellow-and-white rings, representing a mixed-up version of the other two. Minutes after the training, the bees showed a clear preference for the flower that recently rewarded them.

One or three days later, however, something very different happened when the bumblebees’ memory was put to the test. At first, the bees showed the same preference displayed in the earlier tests, but as the time went on, they began selecting the flower with yellow rings, even though they’d never actually seen that one in training before.

Chittka says that insects make similar errors in the conjunction (结合) of long-term memories as humans do. The ability to extract (提取) common features between different events in the environment might come at the expense of remembering every detail correctly. In bees, with their limited brain capacity (容量), the pressure to store main features of several objects rather than each individual object might be much greater, compared with humans.

It’s 9 a. m. , the morning rush hour in Toronto. A man has fallen down on a downtown street suddenly. Several passers-by stop to help the man. One woman reaches into her purse for her cellphone and hits 911, the emergency number. __1.___Within ten minutes, the stricken man is in the back of an ambulance and is sent to the hospital for life-saving treatment.

This scene is fairly common in Toronto and other major cities. Over the years, cities have developed systems to respond quickly to emergencies. ____2.____But none of this would be possible without the cooperation of car drivers who yield(让路)to emergency vehicles on busy downtown streets. In fact, it’s against the law for drivers not to yield.

To yield means to give away or, more specifically, to get out of the way. ___3.____. As yet, China doesn’t have any specific laws that require drivers to yield, whether it is for slower cars to move over to the inside lane of a highway or for all cars to give way to emergency vehicles. ____4._ Drivers did not yield when they heard the ambulance’s siren.

In Canada, failing to yield to an ambulance vehicle can result in a fine of $400~$2, 000 and reduction of three points off your license. That’s for a first offense. __5._This punishment is severe because lives are in danger.

A. It has resulted in many lives being saved.

B. A second offense results in a bigger fine, the loss of your driver’s license for two years and a possible jail sentence.

C. It saves lives and, who knows, someday it may save your own.

D. Three minutes later, sirens(警报)are heard in the distance as a police car, an ambulance and a fire truck race to the area.

E. It means pulling to the side of the road to let others pass.

F. Recently, an injured Beijing cyclist died on the way to hospital because the ambulance carrying him got stuck in city traffic.

G. Safe driving depends on driver’s being aware of the traffic around them and yielding when necessary.
