Some experts believed that the cooling climate during the Earths Ice Age was to blame for their extinction.Scientists reported last week they had studied genetic data from
12、 59 cave bears. Their bones were recovered from seven countries: France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Serbia, Spain and Switzerland. From the genetic information, the scientists noted a decrease in the cave bear population beginning about 50，000 years ago. That is around the time of the arrival of Homo s

14、me as other now extinct creatures. The bear was as big as a modern polar bear, but ate only plants. It appears often in prehistoric cave paintings.There has been a scientific debate about what led to the extinction of the cave bear. Some scientists believe that the climate change greatly reduced the
15、 plants they needed, while others have blamed human activities, including hunting and taking over the caves where the bears gave birth and slept during winter. The bears population remained largely unchanged for long periods before climate cooling, including during two noticeably cold periods and ot
16、her cooling events.Homo sapiens appeared in Africa more than 300，000 years ago and later moved to other areas.

20、emotions such as jealousy (嫉妒)and pride, according to a scientific research that throws new light on their relations with humans.Animal psychologists previously believed most animals lacked the “sense of self”， which is needed to experience secondary emotions such as jealousy, embarrassment or guilt
21、. These emotions are more complex than instant reactions such as anger or joy.Professor Friederike Range, from the University of Vienna, has shown that dogs are jealous when they feel unfairly treated compared with other dogs. “Dogs show a strong reaction to inequity (不公平)，” she said.“If one dog get
22、s something, youd better believe another will demand something as well.”But, her study points out that it doesnt matter if one gets a better treat and only that the distribution is fair.The dog study is the latest into several species, including cows, horses, cats and sheep, which have shown that an

24、ngs we once thought only primates (灵长类) could experience.”In research among dog owners, Morris found almost all of them reported jealous behavior by their pets. The dog often tried to get their owner away from a new lover in the early days of a relationship.Behavior experts suggest owners keep their
25、 dogs away as much as possible from a new partner or child. This helps to prevent jealous activity of the dog such as interruptions with barking or whining (哀号).5Whats the best title for this passage?AAnimals Have Complex FeelingsBA New ResearchCHow to Prevent Jealous Activity from a DogDDogs Can Be
