Do you have a good memory? Maybe you remember better than all of your friends. But even if you have a short-term memory, it’s better than a chimpanzee’s(黑猩猩), right? Well, you may be wrong.
Tetsuro Matszawa, a scientist from Kyoto University, Japan has showed how chimps have far better memories than humans. “We learn that chimps have great memories by doing tests,” he told The Guardian “You can do things to improve your memory.”
How do chimps have better memories than us? Scientists tested four chimps and human volunteers. They showed them five numbers on a computer screen. Chimps and human volunteers had to remember the numbers correctly. But to make it hard, the numbers disappeared(消失) after seven tenths of a second. Then they will reduce(减少) the time to two tenths of a second. While humans began to make mistake after mistake, the young chimps still did very well.
Why do they have better memories? We share 98.8 percent of our DNA with chimps. But during evolution(进化), we lost some of our shared abilities. As humans learned new skills, like language, we had to lose some of our memory skills to make room in our brains. “To get something, we had to lose something,” said the scientist.
Chimps need good memories to survive(生存). When a chimp looks up at the big tree and pick a banana, he must remember where he saw it as he fights off competition from other animals.
29. What did the scientist’s study find?

A．Chimps can remember all of their friends.

B．Chimps have better memories than humans.

C．Chimps do things to improve their memories.

D．Chimps can do many things better than humans.

30. Which of the following is TRUE of the test?

A．Five chimps and human volunteers were tested.

B．The numbers first disappeared after a second.

C．Humans made fewer mistakes than chimps.

D．The chimps did a better job than humans.

31. During evolution, humans __________.

A．lost 98.8 percent of their DNA shared with chimps

B．needed very good memories to survive

C．gained skills but also lost skills

D．learned to compete against chimps

"It doesn't matter, dear," said his mother. "The best present is to be a good boy. Don't be naughty(淘气), my son, or your child will be naughty, too! "

阅读下列短文，根据短文信息完成所缺信息，每空一词（共10小题）。
       Last year, I did not like my English class. Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher spoke very quickly and I couldn’t understand her most of the time. I was afraid to ask questions because I didn’t know how to read the words correctly. I just hid behind my textbook and never said anything in class.
       Then one day I watched an English movie—Toy Story. I fell in love with this exciting and funny movie. So I began to watch other English movies, too. Although(尽管) I could not understand everything the characters(角色) said, their body language and the expressions(表情) on their faces help me get the meaning(意思). I understood I could get the meaning by listening for just the key words. I found out that listening to something interesting is the secret to the language learning. I also learned some useful sentences like “It’s a piece of cake.” and “It serves you right.” I did not understand these at first. But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked them up in a dictionary.
       Now I really enjoy my English class. Do you want to learn English like this?

How I learned English
Last year	I     58     my English class. It was like a bad dream. The teacher spoke     59     quickly for me to understand most of the time. I was afraid     60     asking questions because I couldn’t read the words correctly. I thought I had to     61     behind the textbooks and say nothing in class.
Then	Everything changed after I watched an exciting and funny movie     62     Toy story. Although I could not understand everything the characters said, I tried to get the     63     in many ways. ※Watching their     64     languages and expressions on their faces. ※Listening for just the     65     words. ※    66     a dictionary for help helped me understand the story.
My idea	Listening to something     67     is the secret to language learning.
