At his first stop in Sacramento,he was greeted by a crowd of more than 100 people.Wearing a cape that said "Hero Ethan" and a big smile,the boy seemed enthusiastic and https://www.360docs.net/doc/7b1883584.html,ter,when asked his favorite part of the day so far,he said it was “cleaning up garbage”.

When Ethan visited the Make-A-Wish Foundation in February,he was asked a series of questions: What do you want to be?Who do you want to meet?What do you want to have?Where do you want to go?Ethan’s dream is not fantastic—almost all of his answers were garbage truck-related.He really,really wants to be a garbage man when he grows up."We pretty much knew it was going to be about garbage trucks,”said Ethan's dad,Ken Dean,laughing.He's been watching them come down the street since he first learned how to crawl,his dad said.

Ethan was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis as a baby and began treatment at eight weeks old.Though he and his parents haven't had a big talk about his diagnosis,his dad said every once in a while Ethan asks him a question or two. He's begun to realize that his friends and younger sister don’t have to go to treatment like he does.

Researchers in Seattle revealed last year that captured crows remember the face of their abductor（绑架者）. Even though years had passed since they saw the threatening face,the crows in the experiment would dive-bomb him, suggesting the birds held tightly to a negative association.

Now the researchers' follow-up study shows that the birds' brains light up much like the human mind when they see a face they know.“The regions of the crow brain that work together are not unlike those that work together in mammals,including humans,”said lead researcher John Marzluff of the University of Washington."These regions were suspected to work in birds but not documented until now."

In the study,12 male adult crows were capture by researchers who were all wearing one type of mask,referred to in the study as the threatening face.Then during four weeks of captivity,the birds were fed by people wearing a different mask.Though both disguises had neutral（中性的）expressions,this mask was referred to as the caring face.

To see what was going on in t he birds’brains when they saw both faces,the researchers injected a fluid into the bodies of the fully alert crows.The crows were then put in the presence of someone wearing either the threatening or caring mask for about 15 minutes before the birds were given a brain scan.The fluid revealed which parts of their brains were most active around a certain mask-wearer.

Marzluff said it appears the smart birds have a region of their that is similar to the amygdale （扁桃体）of mammals."The amygdala is the region of the vertebrate brain where negative associations are stored as memories," he said in a statement,“Previous work primaril y concerned its function in mammals,while our work show a that a similar system is at work in birds.”

"By feeding and caring for birds in captivity their brain activity suggests that the birds view their keepers as valued social partners,rather than animals that must be feared,"Marzluff said.

28.How would a crow react upon seeing its abductor?

A.Flying away at once.

B.Trying to attack him.

C.Following him quietly.

D.Giving loud warnings.

29.What do we know about the crows' brains?

A.They keep only negative information.

B.They function as well as human brains.

C.They work like human brains in some areas.

D.They are totally different from mammals’ brains.

30.Which is the correct order of steps in the researchers’ experiment?

a.The crows were given a shot of liquid.

b.The crows were caught by mask-wearers.

c.The crows had their brains examined by machine.

d.The crows were fed by people wearing caring marks.

A.b→d→a→c

B.c→a→b→d

C.a→c→d→b

D.b→c→a→d

31.Why did the researchers put a fluid into the crows’ bodies?

A.To make the birds excited.

B.To help locate the amygdale.

C.To make the birds calm down.

D.To make a brain scan possible.

_40_You may encounter unfamiliar clothes,weather,and food as well as different people,schools,and values.You may find yourself struggling to do things in your new surroundings that were easy back home.Dealing with the differences can be very unsettling;those feelings are part of adjusting to a new culture.

B.These things have become second-nature to you.

C.You’ll probably find that your difficulties will pass.

D.Sometimes your culture and the new culture are similar.
