A new study tested the birds outsid
11、e this naturally occurring behaviour, which may have evolved（进化）specifically because it gives crows a survival advantage. Some crow species are known to naturally use tools to recover food. So the researchers tested whether the birds could store and recover a tool so they could get it at their food
12、after a gap of 17 hourssomething we wouldnt expect them to do naturally. But they were able to instantly select the tool out of a number of unnecessary items.In another experiment, the researchers taught crows to select a token （礼品券）from a number of items so that they could then exchange for food. A
13、gain, the birds then showed that they could plan for the future using this new behaviour. This is different from all of the previous studies in future planning, which have focused on naturally occurring behaviour. For example, we know that chimpanzees select, transport and save appropriate tools for
14、 future needs.These studies have shown that animals can plan for the futurebut they left an important question open for debate. Are animals only able to plan to use abilities that have evolved to give them a specific advantage, or can they flexibly and intelligently apply planning behaviour across v
15、arious actions? Most critics would say the former, as the animals were tested in naturally occurring behaviours.But the new research provides the first evidence that animal species can plan for the future using behaviour that doesnt typically occur in nature. This supports the view that at least som
16、e recognitive abilities in animals dont evolve just in response to specific problems. Instead, it suggests that animals can apply these behaviours flexibly across problems in a similar way to humans. We need to investigate how flexible behaviour evolved. Then we might be able to see how crows abilit

27、ts customers,23（8分） US scientists say they have poured cold water on the theory that washing hands with hot water kills more germs (细菌) than unheated water. The small study of 20 people found using water at 15 (59F) left hands as clean as water heated to 38 (100F).National Health Service (NHS) recom
28、mends that people wash their hands in either cold or warm water. In this study, scientists at Rutgers University New Brunswick wanted to find out if popular assumptions about the benefits of warm or hot water and official guidance on hot water given to the food industry in the US held true. They ask
29、ed 20 people to wash their hands 20 times each with water that was 15 (59F), 26 (79F) or 38 degrees (100F). Volunteers were also asked to experiment with varying amounts of soap. Before they started the tests, their hands were covered in harmless bugs. Researchers say there was no difference in the
30、amount of bugs removed as the temperature of the water or the amount of soap changed.Prof Donald Schaffner said, “People need to feel comfortable when they are washing their hands but as far as effectiveness goes, this study shows us that the temperature of the water used did not matter.”However, th
31、e researchers accept their study is small and say more extensive work is needed to determine the best ways to remove harmful bacteria.In the UK, NHS experts say people can use cold or hot water to wash their hands. They say hands should be washed for at least 20 seconds and stress the importance of
32、using enough soap to cover the whole surface of the hands.

35、 is a unique substance which has many uses. Essentially, dry ice is frozen CO2. The first report of what we now call dry ice came from the French chemist Charles Thilorier in 1834. In 324, the Drylee Corporation of America named the solid form of CO2 as Dry Ice, which is what it is popularly called
36、today.At normal atmospheric pressure, CO2changes directly from solid to gas. It skips the liquid phase（阶段）which makes regular ice wet. Frozen CO2is also much colder than regular ice. But regular ice freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, CO2 changes from gas to solid at -21.3 degrees Fahrenheit. This ext
37、remely cold temperature makes it very dangerous to handle with bare hands. It can cause frostbite in a very short period of time.Dry ice has been used for a variety of purposes throughout the past century. Its primary use is to refrigerate food when electrical refrigeration isnt available. Through t
38、he process of sublimation (when CO2 changes from solid to gas), it can maintain cold food for a long time.If youve ever been to a play and seen heavy fog on the ground, it is likely that you have seen dry ice in action. This effect can be achieved because CO2 is heavier than air, so evaporated （挥发的）
39、CO2 will sink and accumulate on the ground.Another interesting use for this substance is to bait（诱杀）insects like mosquitoes. These insects have sensors which guide them to CO2. They find the high concentration of CO2 in dry ice quite attractive.Mars has long been a mystery for human beings. We have
40、been looking for evidence of life on Mars. In the 360s scientists guessed that the polar ice cap of Mars was made of frozen CO2. More recent observations have shown that while the topmost layer consists of frozen CO2, the most of it is probably regular frozen water.1、Frozen CO2 gets its name of Dry

The keyboard records information about the typing pattern and sends it to a computer program. The progr
44、am then checks to see if the typing pattern and sends it to a computer program. The program then checks to see if the pattern matches the right user, If not, an alarm sounds, and the computer locks the typist out. It locks out anyone else, even if than person knows password. Whats more, this device
45、needs no batteries. It harvests all the person knows your password. Whats more, this device needs no batteries. It harvests all the energy it needs from the action of your typing. Besides, the keyboard is also self-cleaning and the keys are free of damage from water, oil and dirt.The keys of the new
46、 keyboard are made of the same inexpensive plastic that might be found on any other standard keyboard. But instead of being smooth, the keys have millions of tiny plastic nanowires（纳米线）on their surface area to every key, increasing the gffective contact area between the plastics and fingers. This en
47、sures that theres enough power to run the keyboard as someone types.Liming Dai, a scientist, did not work on the new keyboard, but he thinks the design could be important in getting better performance from a variety of devices. “It could also be applied to a touch screen, for instance,” Dai says. “Then smartphones and notepads could harvest energy from the action of someone typing or drawing.”“Future work might
