13．Rats and other animals need to be highly tuned to social signals from others so that they can identify friends to cooperate with and enemies to avoid.To find out if this extends to non-living beings，Loleh Quinn at the University of California，San Diego，and her colleagues tested whether rats can detect social signals from robotic rats.
They housed eight adult rats with two types of robotic rat - one social and one a social - for 5 days.The robots rats were quite minimalist，resembling a chunkier version of a computer mouse with wheels - to move around and colorful markings.
During the experiment，the social robot rat followed the living rats around，played with the same toys，and opened caged doors to let trapped rats escape.Meanwhile，the asocial robot simply moved forwards and backwards and side to side.
Next the researchers trapped the robots in cages and gave the rats the opportunity to release them by pressing a lever.
Across 18 trials each，the living rats were 52 percent more likely on average to set the social robot free than the asocial one.This suggests that the rats perceived the social robot as a genuine social being.They may have bonded more with the social robot because it displayed behaviours like communal exploring and playing.This could lead to the rats better remembering having freed it earlier，and wanting the robot to return the favour when they get trapped，says Quinn.
The readiness of the rats to befriend the social robot was surprising given its minimal design.The robot was the same size as a regular rat but resembled a simple plastic box on wheels. "We'd assumed we'd have to give it a moving head and tail，facial features，and put a scene on it to make it smell like a real rat，but that wasn't necessary，" says Janet Wiles at the University of Queensland in Australia，who helped with the research.
The finding shows how sensitive rats are to social cues，even when they come from basic robots.Similarly，children tend to treat robots as if they are fellow beings，even when they display only simple social signals. "We humans seem to be fascinated by robots，and it turns out other animals are too，" says Wiles.
（1）Quinn and her colleagues conducted a test to see if rats can.
A．send out warning messages to their fellow
B．distinguish a friendly rat from a hostile one
C．attain sociable traits through special training
D．pick up social signals from non-living rats
（2）What did the asocial robot do during the experiment？
A．It followed the social robot.
B．It played with some toys.
C．It moved around alone.
D．It set the trapped rats free.
（3）According to Quinn，the rats released the social robot because they.
A．tried to practice a means of escape
B．expected it to do the same in return
C．wanted to display their intelligence
D．considered that an interesting game
（4）It can be learned from the text that.
A．rats are more sensitive to social cues than expected
B．rats are more socially active than other animals
C．rats behave differently from children in socializing
D．rats appear to be adaptable to new surroundings组卷：12引用：1难度：0.7 -
14． Eating out seems to have been as popular 5，000 years ago as it is today，with archaeologists （考古学家） in Iraq uncovering an ancient tavern dating back to 2，700 BC．Researchers working in the ancient city of Lagash discovered that the pub，hidden just 19 inches below the surface，was split into an open-air dining area and a room containing benches，an oven，ancient food remains and even a 5，000-year-old "fridge".
They initially found themselves in the open courtyard space，an area that was difficult to dig，being "open and exposed to the outdoors"，according to Reed Goodman，an archaeologist from the University of Pennsylvania.After returning to the mysterious courtyard a few months later，field director Sara Pizzimenti from the University of Pisa，widened the trench （沟渠） instead of digging straight down vertically in one spot.
The team then discovered the industrial-sized oven，an ancient "fridge" to keep food cool，and dozens of bowls，many containing fish remains，revealing the purpose of the courtyard to be an outdoor dining area.
Previous digs focused on religious architecture and understanding the elites （上层人士），but Holly Pittman，director of the Lagash Archaeological Project and curator of the Penn Museums Near East section，concentrated on non-elite areas during these latest digs to make people have a broader understanding of ancient cities. "Uncovering the tavern supports the perspective of Pittman and her team that society was not organized into just elites and enslaved people — the previous common view — but included an ancient middle class，" Goodman said.
The discovery provides insight into how people lived in this ancient cjye.aiy-state.It shows that even thousands of years ago，people enjoyed gathering in public places to socialize and enjoy food and drink.
（1）What does the underlined word "tavern" in Paragraph 1 refer to？
A．City.
B．Pub.
C．Bench.
D．Container.
（2）How did Sara Pizzimenti conduct further digging？
A．By broadening the trench in the courtyard.
B．By digging straight down vertically in one spot.
C．By making a hole in the middle of the outdoor space.
D．By splitting the open-air dining area into different parts.
（3）What is special about the latest digging project？
A．It reveals the earliest settlers in Lagash.
B．It shows the social activities of the elites.
C．It reflects the life of the ancient non-elite class.
D．It focuses on studying religious architecture.
（4）What is the main purpose of the text？
A．To share a travel experience.
B．To analyze a historical event.
C．To show the wisdom of ancient people.
D．To introduce an archaeological discovery.组卷：1引用：2难度：0.5
