【0228早間】小貓咪把自己當(dāng)成嬰兒寶寶啦!

Question1:
My mother-in-law actually gave him a little Elmo ______ animal for Charlie …
A.stuffed
B.staff
答案:
A選項(xiàng)正確。stuffed的意思是“填滿的”,聽力原文中提到:“我岳母送了它一個(gè)本來是給Charlie的小艾默毛絨玩具”。B選項(xiàng)staff的意思是“員工”,與原文不符。
Question2:
Wilbur usually watches the show with Charlie for only a few minutes.
A.True.
B.False.
答案:
B選項(xiàng)正確。聽力原文中提到:“Wilbur would be in the baby chair and they would just watch the show together for a really long time, it was so cute.”。由此可知,Wilbur和Charlie會一起看很久的電視節(jié)目。

貓能夠讀懂人類的心情??
與忠實(shí)的狗相比,貓似乎對人類的事情漠不關(guān)心。但實(shí)際上,我們的貓科伙伴比我們想象的要更加關(guān)注我們。?
新的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)了強(qiáng)有力的證據(jù),證明貓對人類的情緒表征很敏感。在美國密歇根州羅徹斯特的奧克蘭大學(xué),莫里亞·嘉爾凡和詹妮弗·馮克研究了12只貓和它們的主人。研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn),主人微笑或皺眉時(shí),貓的反應(yīng)是不一樣的。在面對微笑的主人時(shí),貓作出“積極”行為的可能性大很多,比如發(fā)出咕嚕咕嚕的聲音、蹭人、或坐在主人的腿上。與皺眉頭的主人相比,貓看起來更喜歡親近微笑的主人。當(dāng)研究者把貓的主人替換為陌生人時(shí),這12只貓的反應(yīng)模式則完全不同,不論陌生人是微笑還是皺眉,貓的積極行為的程度并沒有變化。這個(gè)結(jié)果說明兩件事:一是貓能夠讀懂人的面部表情,二是貓需要花時(shí)間來掌握這一能力。
逐句精聽:
Wilbur follows everything Charlie does, like he is his younger brother. Charlie was playing on the play mat.Wilbur was batting around on the play mat.?
威爾伯跟隨著查理的一舉一動(dòng),就像他是查理的弟弟一樣。查理在運(yùn)動(dòng)墊上玩,威爾伯在運(yùn)動(dòng)墊上擊球。
You think every baby toy is for you? You do. Wilbur? what have you done? If Charlie had any little toy, Wilbur thought it was his toy. Is that your baby Elmo? My mother in law actually gave him a little Elmo stuffed animal for Charlie, and Wilbur took it upon himself that was now his toy. It's Charlie's toy. In Charlie's chair. I think Wilbur thought he was a baby as well.
你以為每個(gè)嬰兒玩具都是你的嗎?你做的事情。威爾伯?你做了什么?如果查理有什么小玩具,威爾伯認(rèn)為那是他的玩具。那是你的寶寶Elmo嗎?實(shí)際上,我岳母給了他一個(gè)小埃爾莫毛絨玩具,威爾伯把它當(dāng)成了自己的玩具。這是查理的玩具。坐在查理的椅子上。我想威爾伯也以為自己是個(gè)嬰兒。
Wilbur had his favorite chairs, which were the little baby rockers. Wilbur, is that a baby chair? Wilbur would be in the baby chair, and they would just watch the show together for a really long time.It was so cute.
威爾伯有他最喜歡的椅子,那是小搖椅。威爾伯,那是嬰兒椅嗎?威爾伯會坐在嬰兒椅上,他們會一起看很長時(shí)間的節(jié)目。太可愛了。
