Johns angry mother rushes over and drives Mary away. Once his mum has gone, John helps himself to Marys potato.We
32、ve all experienced similar annoying tricks when we were youngthe brother who stole your ball and then got you into trouble by telling your parents you had hit him. But Mary and John are not humans. Theyre African baboons (狒狒). _21_Johns scream and his mothers attack on Mary could have been a matter
33、of chance, but John was later seen playing the same tricks on others. _22_Studying behavior like this is complicated but scientists discovered apes (猿) clearly showed that they intended to cheat and knew when they themselves had been cheated. _23_ An ape was annoying him, so he tricked her into goin
34、g away by pretending he had seen something interesting. When she found nothing, she “walked back, hit me over the head with her hand and ignored me for the rest of the day.”Another way to decide whether an animals behavior is deliberate is to look for actions that are not normal for that animal. A z
35、oo worker describes how an ape dealt with an enemy. “He slowly stole up behind the other ape, walking on tiptoe. When he got close to his enemy, he pushed him violently in the back, then ran indoors.” Wild apes do not normally walk on tiptoe. _24_ But looking at the many cases of deliberate trickery
36、 in apes, it is impossible to explain them all as simple copying.It seems that trickery does play an important part in ape societies. _25_ Studying the intelligence of our closest relative could be the way to understand the development of human intelligence.A. In most cases the animal probably doesn
37、t know it is cheating.B. An amusing example of this comes from a psychologist working in Tanzania.C. And playing tricks is as much a part of monkey behavior as it is of human behavior.D. So the psychologists asked his colleagues if they had noticed this kind of trickery.E. The ability of animals to
38、cheat may be a better measure of their intelligence than their use of toolsF. This use of a third individual to achieve a goal is only one of the many tricks commonly used by baboons.G. Of course its possible that it could have learnt from humans that such behavior works, without understanding why.第
