Your Cat Might Not Be Ignoring You When You Speak
Every cat owner has a story to tell of being blanked by their cat. We call to our cat, it turns away, and some of us might be left (21) (wonder)why we didn' t get a dog. But your cat may be listening after all. More than that, it (22) (care)more than you may think.
A study by French researchers (23) (publish)last month in the journal Animal Cognition found that not only do cats react to what scientists call cat-directed speech—a high-pitched (高音的 )voice similar to (24) we talk to babies —they react to who is doing the talking.
"We found that hearing their owners using a high-pitched voice, cats reacted more than when hearing their owner speaking normally to another human adult, "said Charlotte de Mouzon, an author of the study. "But it actually didn't work when it came from a stranger' s voice. "
(25) studies involving dogs, analyzing cat behavior is difficult, which is part of why humans understand them less. Cats are stressed by being in a lab (26) meaningful behavioral observations become impossible. And forget about trying to get a cat(27) (sit)still for an M.
R. I. scan (核磁共振扫描)to study its brain function.
So the researchers for the latest study went to the cats' homes and played recordings of different types of speech and different speakers. At first, there was concern from Dr. de Mouzon and her team for lack of reaction from the cats, but upon analysis of the film recordings, delicate reactions (28) (notice). "It could be just moving an ear or turning the head to the speaker or even freezing what (29) were doing, ”Dr. de Mouzon said.
In the study, there were a few cases (30) cats would approach the speaker playing a voice and meow. "In the end, we had really clear gains in the cat' s attention when the owner was using cat-directed speech, ”Dr. de Mouzon said.

Life May Actually Flash Before Your Eyes on Death
New data from a scientific “accident” has suggested that life may actually flash before our eyes as we die.
A team of scientists set out to measure the brainwaves of an 87-year-old patient who (21) _____ (develop) epilepsy (癫痫) for many years. But during the neurological (神经学的) recording, he suffered a fatal heart attack, (22) _____ (offer) an unexpected recording of a dying brain.
It revealed that in the 30 seconds before and after, the man’s brainwaves followed the same patterns as dreaming or recalling memories. Brain activity of this sort could suggest that a final “recall of life” may occur in a person’s last moments, the team wrote in their study, (23) _____ (publish) in Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience on Tuesday.
Dr Ajmal Zemmar, a co-author of the study, said that what the team, then based in Vancouver, Canada, accidentally got, (24) _____ (consider) the first-ever recording of a dying brain. So will we get a glimpse back at those moments (25) _____ we stayed with loved ones and other happy memories Dr Zemmar said it was impossible (26) _____ (tell). “If I were to jump to the philosophical area, I would guess that if the brain did a flashback, it would probably like to remind you of good things, rather than the bad things,” he said. “But (27) _____ is memorable would be different for every person.”
Dr Zemmar, now a neurosurgeon at the University of Louisville, said in the 30 seconds (28) _____ the patient’s heart stopped supplying blood to the brain, his brainwaves followed the same patterns as when we carry out high-cognitive demanding (高认知要求的) tasks, like concentrating, dreaming or recalling memories. It continued 30 seconds after the patient’s heart stopped beating. “I think there’s (29) _____ mysterious and spiritual about this whole near-death experience,” Dr Zemmar said. “And findings like this — it’s a moment (30) _____ scientists live for.”

What’s Good About Social Network

The First Space Cat
In a few weeks, space scientists will celebrate a remarkable event---the 60th anniversary of the launch of the first cat into space, an astronautical success that has never been repeated.
In the early 60s, dogs and monkeys were the animals usually used by scientists to find out exactly (21)dangerous the conditions were in outer space. And they were also used to assess if humans (22)survive trips beyond the edge of Earth's atmosphere.
A total of 14 street cats (23)(gather) at France's space agency for selection as cat astronauts, but the cats were not given names on purpose in order to prevent scientists from becoming too fond of them. The cat selected to travel to space was simply known (24)C341. C341 flew on a French rocket in October 1963, taking it to a place (25)no cat had gone before.
Then, (26)the news of its flight was announced on 18 October 1963, the French press decided this cat had to have its name. They picked “Felix” after a cartoon cat character, only (27)(discover) that C341 was female, so her name was then adjusted to “Felicette” as a result. In putting Felicette in one of its rockets, France added a new species to the list of animals that scientists (28)(send) into space before. Previously, two garden spiders, Anita and Arebella, had been taken to the Skylab (29)(orbit) around the moon.
“In the 60s, (30)(concern) about the possible danger for a human to be in outer space, scientists and engineers primarily undertook animal space flights to see if they suffered or their lives were threatened by the weightlessness or increased radiation or other effects they might experience up there,” said astronomer Jake Foster at the Royal Observatory Greenwich. “The fact that they did not fail paved the way for humans to begin journeys into space.”

So, I am fascinated to discover, thanks to my colleague Catherine Pearson, that I __23__ (understand) staycation in a wrong way. Evidently, my tendency __24__ (take) a break without a plan is unlikely to produce a restorative effect. Instead, one should make good preparations for that period of time. Jaime Kurtz, a psychology professor at James Madison University and the author of “The Happy Traveler: Unpacking the Secrets of Better Vacations,” advises __25__ (ask) oneself, “If I were moving away soon, what would I most want to do, and who would I most want to spend time with ”

This weekend, you could, for instance, seek out some vegan ice cream __27__ doesn’t taste terrible. You could try running in a pool, which is easier on the joints but as effective as running on land. You could go for a walk or a drive while listening to “Slow Radio,” a very comforting BBC podcast __28__ (feature) sounds of the natural world.
Whether or not you have a proper vacation __29__ (plan) for the coming weeks, you could envision any coming weekend as its own two-day mini-break, programming it as you would a trip to somewhere new, with a journey __30__ (exciting) than just “sleep as much as possible” and “mow the lawn”.
