We saw one restaurant that sold specialty dishes from Xian.We decided to try it out. My

14、 coworker said, “Maybe we can have some Roger Moore (a famous British actor)!” I felt confused, so I asked her what she meant. She explained that she was talking about roujiamo (肉夹馍), which sounds like the name “Roger Moore”. Its a type of Chinese snack that comes from Shaanxi province.My first thou

15、ght was that the roujiamo was very similar to an American hamburger. The pieces of flatbread were like hamburger buns, with meat in the middle.Our roujiamo were made fresh, so the bread was still warm. It was soft and fluffy (松软 的) when I bit into it. The meat inside was salty and tender (嫩的). It wa

16、s quite delicious.Roujiamo is popular in other countries, too. In the United States, a businessman named Jason Wang opened more than 10 chain restaurants called “Xian Famous Foods”.

Both cats and dogs may have episodic

19、memory（情景记忆）, similar to that of human beings.The discovery shows that cats can recall memories of positive experiences like eating a delicious snack. The study was a test of episodic memory. Episodic memory means memory of past experiences that happened at a special time and place.In the test, cats

20、 were led to four open bowls of food. They were allowed to eat from two of them. After fifteen minutes, empty bowls took the place of the old ones. Then the same cats returned to look for food again. They spent more time searching for the old bowls.It seemed that the cats were able to remember the i

21、nformation of “what” and “where” about the bowls. This discovery suggests that they may have episodic memory. However, its still not clear whether cats can truly experience past memories in the same way as human beings do. “Its difficult to know whether the cats can subjectively（主观地）remember the exp

22、erience,” Nick Diamond, a researcher at the University of Toronto, explained.Still, the test plays an important role in the development of memory research in animals. “It opens the door to new studies. How long can cats memories last? We may do some research on this in the future,” Professor Laurie

23、Santos from Yale University told BBC News.The road to new discoveries is long and difficult.
