2 . Every dog owner knows that saying Good dog! A happy, high-pitched voice will bring about a flurry of joyful tail wagging in their pet.
That makes scientists curious. What exactly happens in your dog’s brain when it hears praise? And is it similar to the way our own brain processes such acoustic information?
When a person gets a compliment, the more primitive subcortical(皮下的)auditory regions first react to the intonation(声调) , the emotional force of spoken words. Next, the brain taps the more recently evolved auditory cortex(皮质)to figure out the meaning of the words, which is learned.
It’s an important question. Dogs are speechless species.
When the scientists studied scans of the brains of pet dogs, they found that theirs, like ours, processed the sounds of spoken words in a multi-step manner. They analyze first the emotional component with the older region of the brain, the subcortical regions. Subsequently, they deal with the words’ meaning with the newer part, the cortex.
Previous studies have shown that many animals, from songbirds to dolphins, use the subcortex to process emotional hints.
It’s likely that human language evolved from such hints. We employ the same neurological systems to develop speech.
A.It is widely recognized that the dog has a complex structure of brain, similar, in a way, to that of human’s. |
B.But they respond correctly to our words. |
C.Animals are found to have adopted various mechanisms to defend against enemies. |
D.They are capable of obtaining mood implications even though they can’t talk. |
E.It has been discovered that dogs’ brains, like those of humans, compute the intonation and meaning separately. |
F.Domesticated animals have evolved alongside humans for the past thousands of years. |
