Perhaps you have seen them on the television or in a film. If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward. The scientists say that many different animalsmay be trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get a reward for doing them.Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and soldiers in both old and modern times have used geese to give warning by makingalot of noise when a stranger or an enemy comes near. But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories. In Russian, for example, pigeons, which are birds with good eyesight, are being used to watch out for faults in small steel balls that are being made in one factory. When the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others, it touches a steel plate with its beak. This turns on a light to warn people in the factory. At thesame time a few seeds are given as a reward. It takes three to five weeks to train a pigeon to this and one pigeon can inspect 3,000 to 4,000 balls an hour.Apes have been used in America in helping to make cars, and scientists believe that these large monkeys may be one day gather crops and even drive trains.6.

In the United States elementary education begins at the age of six. At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, mostly married. The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested. The old authoritarian (要绝对服从的) methods of education werediscredited (不被认可) rather a long time ago ― so much so that many peoplenow think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than giving them actual instruction. The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on co-operation rather than competition throughoutmost of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive; however, the need for making peoplesociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions ofeducation. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails. It probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.11. According to the passage, the U.S. elementary education is supposed to make children _____.A. sensible and sensitiveB. curious andfriendlyC. competitive and interestedD. happy andco-operative正确答案：D题目解析：由文章瑜?慭敫琠敨挠楨摬敲?慨灰?湡?湩整敲瑳摥可以看出正确答案选D。
