Common sense (57) that the answers to these questions depend on “readability”- whether the (58) matter is interesting, and the argument clear and the (59) attractive But psychologists are trying to (60) why people read – and often don’t read certain things, for example technical information They also have examined so much the writing as the readers Even the most technically confident people often (61) instructions for the video or home computer in favor of hands- on experience And people frequently take little notice of consumer information, whether on nutritional labels or in the small print of contracts Psychologists researching reading (62) to assume that both beginners and competent readers read everything put in front of them from start to finish There are (63) among them about the role of eyes, memory and brain during the process Some people believe that fluent readers take in very letter or word they see; other (64) that reader rely on memory or context to carry them from one phrase to another But they have always assumed that the reading process is the same: reading starts, comprehension (65) , then reading stops 56 A time B period C term D gap 57 A transmits B suggests C informs D advises 58 A content B text C subject D topic 59 A information B pattern C layout D assembly 60 A rate B value C ensure D determine 61 A ignore B pass C miss D omit 62 A lead B tend C undertake D consent 63 A contests B objections C separations D arguments 64 A direct B press C insist D urge 65 A occurs B establishes C issues D sets Part Questions 66 – 75 (2.0 points - 0.2/ each) Read the passage below and choose the best answer to each question Some animal behaviorists argue that certain animals can remember part events, anticipate future ones, make plans and choices, and coordinate activities within a group These scientists, however, are cautious about the extent to which animals can be credited with conscious processing Explanations of animal behavior that leave out any sort of consciousness at all and ascribe actions entirely to instinct leave many questions unanswered One example of such unexplained behavior: Honeybees communicate the sources of nectar to one another by doing a dance in a figure-eight pattern The orientation of the dance conveys the position of the food relative to the sun’s position in the sky, and the speed of the dance tells how far the food source is from the hive Most researchers assume that the ability to perform and encode the dance is innate and shows no special intelligence But in one study, when experimenters kept changing the site of the food source, each time moving the food 25 percent father from the previous site, foraging honeybees began to anticipate where the food source would appear next When the researchers arrived at the new location, they would find the bees circling the spot, waiting for their food No one has yet explained how bees, whose brains weigh four ten-thousandths of an ounce, could have inferred the location of the new site Other behaviors that may indicate some cognition include tool use Many animals, like the otter who uses a stone to crack mussel shells, are capable of using objects in the natural environment as rudimentary tools One researcher has found that mother chimpanzees occasionally show their young how to use tools to open hard nuts In one study, chimpanzees compared two pairs of food wells containing chocolate chips One pair might contain, say, five chips and three chips, the other four chips and three chips Allowed to choose which pair they wanted, the chimpanzees almost always chose the one with the higher total, showing some sort of summing ability Other chimpanzees have learned to use numerals to label quantities of items and simple sums 66 What does the passage mainly discuss?
