When you hear the word “scitentist”, what do you think of? Many people think scientist are people in clean white coats who work in labs.And some scientists do work in labs.But there are 1 scientist who work in woods and jungles.These scientists are called “animal behavior(行为)scientists”, and they study animals as they live in nature.
Why don’t these scientists catch animals and study them in zoos? The 2 is in the word “behavior”.Animals behavior scientists want to learn 3 animal behave in their wild homes.When animals live in cages(笼子)or in zoos, they do not act the same as they do when they are 4 .They may fight 5 each other, or they may not eat, or they may not raise(抚养)their babies as they usually would.To see real animal behavior, scitentists must go where the animals 6 .
So animal behavior scientists go into the jungles, the woods or the desert.There, their most important 7 are their eyes and ears.They watch and listen to the animals very 8 .They write down everything that happened in notebook. 9 they live near the animals, the scientists are careful not to frighten them.If the scientists are luncky, the animals will 10 no attention to them.Then the scientists can see how the animals really live.
The behavior scientists hope what they’ve learned about animal behavoir can provide clues(提供线索)to help people learn to live together more happily.

Some scientists believe that there are three kinds of memory-immediate, short-term and long-term.
1 memory holds items of information coming into 2 from the five senses for less than a second.Then it either rejects them 3 passes them into short-term memory.
Short-term memory 4 .hold about seven items of information 5 one time(e.g., telephone numbers), it holds them for about thirty seconds.Then they are rejected(拒绝)(i.e., forgotten)or 6 into long-term memory.
7 memory can hold information for the whole of our lives.Some scientists believe that long-term memory can 8 into two types. 9 type remembers events, that is things that happen to us. 10 remembers knowledge(e.g., the names of countries or the meanings of words).
