A People on working holidays must be from Australia and New Zealand B A young person needs a special visa to go on working holiday C Some working holiday are not paid D Picking fruit is the only job available for young people on working holidays Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42 Some animal behaviorists argue that certain animals can remember past 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 farther 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 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 Question 36 What does the passage mainly discuss? Trang 137 A The role of instinct in animal behavior B Observations that suggest consciousness in animal behavior C The use of food in studies of animal behavior D Differences between the behavior of animals in their natural environments and in laboratory experiments Question 37 Which of the following is NOT discussed as an ability animals are thought to have? A Selecting among choices B Anticipating events to come C Remembering past experiences D Communicating emotions Question 38 What is the purpose of the honeybee dance? A To determine the quantity of food at a site B To communicate the location of food C To increase the speed of travel to food sources D To identify the type of nectar that is available Question 39 The word “yet” in line 15 is closest in meaning to A however B since C generally D so far Question 40 It can be inferred from the passage that brain size is assumed to _ A be an indicator of cognitive ability B vary among individuals within a species C be related to food consumption D correspond to levels of activity Question 41 Why are otters and mussel shells included in the discussion in paragraph 3?
