题目内容

Imagine the situation. You are driving along a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago, Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you .It is a device（装置）which uses satellite（卫星）to find the user’s position（位置）.It can find your position to within 20 meters. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.

GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone, You can hold it in your hand, or put your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone, We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these device have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.

There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates（计算）its position. The third part of the system is a network of group stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.

It seems that there’s a good reason why dogs are always seen as man’s best friend. Scientists have found that dogs are the only animals that can read emotion(情感)in faces much like humans. The finding suggests that like an understanding friend, dogs can see if we are happy, sad, pleased or angry.

When humans look at a new face, their eyes usually look across the left, falling on the right hand side of the person’s face first. A possible reason for this is that the right side of the human face is better at expressing emotions.

Scientists have now shown that pet dogs also have “left gaze bias(左视偏好)”, but only when looking at human faces. No other animal has been known to do like this before. Dr. Kun Guo with his team showed 17 dogs the pictures of human, dog and monkey faces as well as something else. The dogs’ eyes and heads show a strong left gaze bias when the animals see human faces. But this did not happen when they were shown other pictures, including those of dogs.

Guo suggests that over thousands of years living with humans, dogs may have developed the left gaze bias as a way to guess our emotions.

“Recent studies show that the right side of our faces can express emotions better than the left. If true, then it makes sense for dogs and humans to see the right hand side of a face first.”

1.Why are dogs seen as man’s best friend according to the passage?

A. Because dogs are the closest animals to humans.

B. Because dogs can read the emotions in humans’ faces easily.

C. Because dogs can understand us better when we feel sad.

D. Because dogs are good at expressing emotions.

2.The dogs’ left gaze bias helps them _______.

A. get along well with humans

B. express emotions quickly

C. have more understanding friends

D. remember more new faces

3.The passage mainly wants to tell us that _______.

A. dogs have been man’s best friends for thousands of years

B. humans have a “left gaze bias”

C. the “left gaze bias” works on all animals

D. dogs can read emotions the same as humans
