25、 which share ancestral history. Dogs broke off from wolves after being domesticated (驯化) about 33, 000 years ago. During that time dogs changed physically and behaviorally to adapt to life with humans.The researchers examined the heads of six dogs and two wolves for comparison. They found the facial
26、 structures of both animals were mostly very similar. But one major difference was found above the eyes. The dogs were found to have two well-formed muscles around the eye that were not present in the wolves. These small muscles permit dogs to raise their inner eyebrows, the study found. Juliane Kam
27、inski, a comparative psychologist from the research suggests this eyebrow-rising movement causes “a warm” feelings in humans because it makes the dogs eyes appear larger. This expression also makes the dog look more like a human baby. The eye movement is similar to that which humans make when they a
28、re sad. “The evidence is very obvious that dogs developed a muscle to raise the inner eyebrows after they were domesticated from wolves, ” Kaminski said. In a separate part of the study, the researchers observed how 27 dogs and nine wolves interacted with a human. “We also studied dogs and wolves be
29、havior. And when exposed to a human for two minutes, dogs raised their inner eyebrows more and higher than wolves, ” Kaminski said. The researchers suggest that the eye movements developed over time as a way for dogs to get humans to do things for them, such as giving them food, care or attention.Th
30、e only dog species in the study that did not have the muscles was the Siberian husky, which is an ancient kind of dog. The husky could be the best living example of what the link between dogs, and wolves looked like.28. What is the difference found between dogs and wolves?A. Dogs have nice eyebrows.

It has lovelier eyes than the other dogs.B. It seems much more like a wolf than a dog.C. It can raise its eyebrows high
33、er than most dogs do.D. It is better at linking with humans than an ordinary dog.31. What is the passage mainly about?A. The evolution of the wolves. B. Dogs ability to connect with humans.C.

34、et workers back into the office, finding ways to keep social distancing(社会隔离)will be important. An Israeli company thinks it can help, using smart sensors installed on workplace ceilings.PointGrab developed its technology before COVID-19 to help workspace managers optimize(优化)how employees use offic
35、e space. About the size of a smoke alarm, the sensors can record the exact number and location of people in buildings including offices, hotels and restaurants. One of the companys first clients was Deloitte, which installed the system at its London office last year. PointGrab s sensors were connect
36、ed to screens in the building to show the availability(利用率)of desks and shared areas in real time. PointGrab CEO Doron Shachar says it was one of a series of innovations that helped Deloitte fit 30% more people into 3% less space.Now to prevent the coronavirus spreading face to face, PointGrab has a
37、dapted the technology to some degree so the sensors can also monitor social distancing by keeping track of how far apart people are, and whether theyre traveling in one direction around a building. Workspace managers can set up alarm when two people are closer than two meters for more than 30 second
38、s, for example. The sensors have been included in the “six feet office” concept created by a company Cushman & Wakefield to encourage employees to practice social distancing. They are currently being used in this way at a university in the Netherlands, and at an innovation centre in Belgium. While t
39、he social distancing innovation is new, PointGrab has installed more than 10, 000 sensors for workspace optimization, including in the offices of Coca-Cola, Facebook and Dell.Workers might not like the idea of being monitored, but PointGrab says no images or identifying features are recorded. Instea
40、d, each employee is represented as a dot on a screen. “The sensor does not violate peoples privacy,” Shachar says. This is extremely important in the workspace.32.

The book and movie A River Runs Through It tried to answer that question. 36 What are mine? Like most fishermen, I love the pe
44、ace and quietness of most trips. Imagine the still water at your feet, not a ripple(涟漪) on it. 37 And everything around you looks soft. A splash(飞溅的水) breaks the calm, letting you know there is a fish feeding there. You are totally alone with your thoughts, almost as if you were floating in an isola
45、tion(隔离) tank. 38 Trying to make a fish think your lure(诱饵) is its food is not easy. Figuring out where the fish is and why it is there is another part of the challenge. And learning enough about them to consistently catch fish is a challenge. The pull of the fish you hook and the efforts to land it
46、 without losing it are part of the fun. Struggling with a fish on a rod and reel is very interesting. Good fresh food is another reason why many people go fishing. Getting your own food is another basic need that fishing provides.Competition has become a big part of fishing.
