25、anzees, behave dishonestly to fool other animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps them survive.Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. For example, a bird called the plover sometimes pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young. When a predator(猎食动物) gets close to its nest

26、, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. How? It pretends to have a broken wing. The predator follows the “hurt” adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest.Another kind of bird, the scrub jay, buries its food so it always has something to eat. Scrub jays are also thieves.

29、himps are friendly again. But an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winners hand and start fighting again.Chimps are sneaky in other ways, too. When chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is natural for them to cry out. Then other chimps come running. But some clever chimps

30、 learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimps dont hear them, and they dont need to share their food.As children, many of us learn the saying “You cant fool Mother Nature.” But maybe you cant trust her, either.28.

How does honesty help animals survive?DKeeping secrets is a burden.“Dont tell anyone”. We hear these words when someon

34、e tells a secret to us. But it can be hard to keep a secret. Were often tempted to “spill the beans(说漏嘴)”, even if we regret it later.According to Asim Shah, professor in the Menninger Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Baylor College of Medicine, US, keeping a secret may well “beco

35、me a burden”. This is because people often have an “obsessive and anxious urge to share it with someone”.An earlier study, led by Anita E. Kelly, a scientist at the University of Notre Dame, US, suggested that keeping a secret could cause stress. People entrusted(受委托的) with secrets can suffer from d

36、epression, anxiety, and body aches, reported the Daily Mail.But with secrets so often getting out, why do people share them at all? Shah explained that people often feel that it will help them keep a person as a friend. Another reason people share secrets is guilt over keeping it from someone close

37、to them. A sense of distrust can develop when people who are close do not share it with each other. “Keeping or sharing secrets often puts people in a position of either gaining or losing the trust of someone,” according to Shah.He added that talkative people could let secrets slip out (泄露). But thi

38、s doesnt mean that it is a good idea only to share secrets with quiet people. A quiet person may be someone who keeps everything inside. To tell such a person a secret may cause them stress, and make them talk about the secret. Shah said that to judge whether to tell someone a secret, youd better pu

39、t yourself in their position. Think about how you would feel to be told that you mustnt give the information away. Shah also recommended that if you accidentally give up someones secret you should come clean about it. Let the person know that their secret isnt so secret anymore.32. What does underli

Its better to share your secrets with quiet people.B. Its not a good idea to share your secrets with others.C. Quiet people suffer less stress from k

42、eeping secrets.D. Talkative people are unlikely to keep secrets.35. What does Shah suggest people do if they give away someones secret by accident?A. Stay away from the person.B. Exchange a new secret with the person.C. Tell the affected person what happened.D. Buy the person a gift as an apology.第二
