50、Zoo have been studying what has been described as the “secret language” of elephants.

Their growls, however, are
51、only partly audible (听得见的); two-thirds of the call is at frequencies that are too low to be picked up by our hearing. To learn more about the inaudible part of the growl, the team attached (附在上面) a microphone sensitive to these low frequencies and a GPS tracking system to eight of the zoos female el
52、ephants. The researchers could then relate the noises the animals were making to what they were doing.

53、ommunication to announce to the rest of their long gestation (妊娠期) of over two years, in the last 12 days we see the low part of the growl, which we cant hear.

54、arns the elephants to look out for coming danger. “You may think that a baby calf of about 300 pounds would not be as open to predation (捕食) as other species,” he says. “But packs of hyenas (袋狼) are a big threat in the wild.”Female elephants are only in season for around four days every four years a

59、 can achieve it! Here are four goals for people to reach a perfect life in their future.2The first goal common to all of us in health and energy. We all want to be healthy and fit, to have high levels of energy and to live free of pain and illness. Today, with the incredible advances in medical scie
60、nce, the quality of our health and fitness, and our lifespan, is largely determined by design, not by chance.

Fully 85% of your happiness will be determined by the quality of your relationships at each stage, and in
62、 each area, of your life. How well you get along with people, and how much they like and respect you, have more impact on the quality of your life than perhaps any other factor.

63、nd keep the job you want, to get paid more and promoted (晋升) faster. You want to earn the very most that is possible for you at each stage of your career, whatever you do.The fourth goal we all have in common is to achieve financial independence. You want to reach the point in life where you have en
64、ough money so that you never have any financial worries. You want to be completely free of them. You want to be able to order dinner in a restaurant without referring to the price listing to determine what you want to eat.76. What does this passage chiefly talk about? (no more than 12 words) 77.
