Painting and music are part of efforts to keep animals happy at the Smithsonians National Zoo.A sloth bear (长毛熊) called Francois is one of the National Zoos artists. He began his artistic career

12、two years ago. Francois has a very unusual way to paint. He uses his breathing to paint. His zookeeper, Stacey Tabellario, says that although the technique may look strange, it is actually a very natural behavior for sloth bears. The zookeepers fill one of those tubes full of paint and ask them to b

13、reathe through it. And they blow all of the paints onto the canvases (画布), making these really cool paintings.Animal artists come in all shapes and sizes at the Zoo. They use many kinds of techniques to create their works of art. Apes use paintbrushes. Many use their paws or clawsmuch like a human p

14、ainter who would use his or her hands.Stacey Tabellario says Francois seems to enjoy expressing himself through his art. “When I set up the materials for painting activity, he comes and sits next to them and waits until they are ready for painting. He does that every time. I also see where his eyes

15、go. He does see the paints come out of the tube and land on the canvas.”But not every animal wants to paint. Music is another part of the arts enrichment program. Physically and mentally stimulating activities are an important part of the daily care of the animals. Trainers have a lot of tools, from

16、 tablet computer to small toys.Kenton Kerns says the program helps the animals and the zookeepers in many ways. Every interaction between keepers and their animals creates some sort of connections. The one-of-a-kind works of art created by the animals are popular with zoo visitors. Many are sold at

17、the zoos fund-raising events.1、From Paragraph 2, we can learn that _.AFrancois is a two-year-old artist at the National ZooBFrancois can make fantastic paintings with paintbrushesCFrancois, way to paint is an unnatural behavior for sloth bearsDFrancois paints by blowing the paints in the tubes onto

20、t a crosswalk and wondered if it really worked? Theyre called “placebo(安慰剂）buttons”一buttons that mechanically sound and can be pushed，but provide no functionality.In New York City, only about 2 of the 1, 000 crosswalk buttons actually function. Crosswalk signals were generally installed before traff

21、ic jam had reached todays levels.But while their function was taken over by more advanced systemssuch as automated lights or traffic sensors the physical buttons were often kept, rather than being replaced at further expense. Other cities，such as Boston，Dallas and Seattle，have gone through a similar

22、 process, leaving them with their own placebo pedestrian buttons. In London, which has 6, 000 traffic signals, pressing the pedestrian button results in a reliable “Wait” light. But that doesnt necessarily mean that the “green man” or “pedestrian stage” in traffic signal design profession will appea

23、r any sooner.“We do have some crossings where the green light comes on automatically, but we still ask people to press the button because that enables accessible features, said Glynn Barton, director of network management at Transport for London.These features, such as blind tracks and hearable traf

24、fic signals, help people with visual disorder cross the road and only function when the button is pressed. As for the lights, a growing number of them are now combined and become a part of an electronic system that detects traffic and adjusts time frequency accordingly (giving priority to buses if t

25、heyre running late, for example), which means that pressing the button has no effect.According to Langer, a Harvard psychologist, placebo buttons give us the illusion (错觉)of control and something to do in situations where the alternative would be doing nothing. In the case of pedestrian crossings, t

26、hey may even make us safer by forcing us to pay attention to our surroundings. “They serve a psychological purpose at the very least,” she added.1、Why are the physical buttons still kept in some cities?ABecause it may cost money to replace them.BBecause they remain as memories of a city.CBecause do

27、have real functions in traffic.DBecause they can result in reliable lights.2、Which of the following word can replace the underline word “features” in Paragraph 4?AFunctions.BUses.CEquipment.DFacilities.3、If you pressed a “placebo button” in London, what would happen?AAll traffic would be affected.BS

28、ome kind of sound might appear.CPedestrians came first to cross the road.D“Green man” were bound to show up earlier.4、What can we know about “placebo buttons” from Langers words?AThey can really control traffic.BThey serve little functions.CThey may work mentally.DThey can help the blind.23（8分）Long
