11、 silent crowd. Some were praying, some were crying, but most were staring in disbelief at the disaster happening before us. The fire continued to get worse.

12、Notre Dame is part of the heartbeat of Paris, I reflected on the experiences I've had there, from attending a bread market out front to admiring the beautiful windows and architecture inside. It is a spot that helps make Paris magical. And here we were, watching it burn down. It was too much to
13、handle, but it was impossible to look away.About 9:30 pm, the gathered crowd spontaneously(自发地)began to sing Hymns(圣歌)to the church. We sang along with the group, feeling at once less like tourists and more like members of them. I hadn't imagined all that before.For hundreds of years, the Notre

26、on't understand human voices at all?A recent study published in the journal of Scientific Reports suggests that we've been fooled. Japanese scientists found that cats can recognize their names if their owners regularly use them. In the study, scientists recruited 78 domestic cats. They playe
27、d recordings of voices of their owners saying five words: the first four words were random nouns that resembled their names while the final word was the cat's name. Then they observed the cats' responses, if there were any.Most of cats moved their ears or heads when they heard their names, w
28、hile they made no response to other words. That suggested, "cats were paying attention to you, what yo say and what you do," John Bradshaw, an expert on human-animal interactions(互动)at the University of Bristol, UK, told The Times. "And cats were just as good as dogs at learning,"
29、; she added.In the study, when people called their names, cats often associated(联系)the words with rewards, such as food or play, or with"punishments" such as having a bath or going to the vet. This made cats sensitive(敏感的)to words. After the cats had been called several times, they could r

31、tions as a survival method. One example is illness, which they tend to hide because "in the wild, no one can rescue them" and predators(捕食性动物)are more likely to pay attention to them, Saito explained.However, technology may help bridge the communication gap between cats and us. There are n
32、ow mobile apps available to explain what their meows mean. So, the next time you hear "meow, meow", your cat may be telling you, "Hi, you haven't cleaned my litter box recently." (1)What did the recent study find about cats?A.Cats can recognize their names.B.Cats are cleverer
33、 than dogs.C.Cats learn more slowly than dogs.D.Cats are willing to follow orders. (2)What does the underlined word "resembled" in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.were limited toB.were different fromC.were similar toD.were away from (3)Why do cats appear distant to their human owners?A.They as
