10、 a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe of success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable tha
11、t the two pets will get along swimmingly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog. However, it wasnt all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed
12、in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals were just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission.来源:学#科#网 In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a sur
13、prising behavior. They are learning how to talk each others language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk dog and dogs can learn how to talk Cat.

They can easily share the same water bowl and in some ca
15、ses groom (梳理) each other. The significance of the research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets to people who dont get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.25. Some cats and dogs may figh

19、es are adopting environmentally-friendly behavior, others live in wasteful cultures of consumption.来源:学*科*网Z*X*X*KThe 2014 online survey of 18,000 people in 18 countries judged environmental attitudes and habits and their sustainability when it came to housing, transportation, food and consumer good
20、s. 1.Some consumer behavior is improving. In half the countries surveyed, people acted in more environmentally-friendly ways than they had in 2012. For example, Russians are using more public transportation and British consumers are buying more green electricity. But some countries reported that peo
21、ples habits were less sustainable than in the previous survey. Around 68 percent of Germans drink bottled water daily, and Canadians are among the most likely to own at least two cars or trucks.2. Anxiety about the environment is growing. A slim majority of consumers 51 percent agree that global war
22、ming will negatively affect their own lives. Latin Americans are the most concerned, with more than three in four Brazilians convinced that climate change will impact them personally.3. Americans resist going green. Nearly one in four American households owns four or more TVs. Americans are also amo
23、ng the most likely to avoid paying extra for environmentally-friendly products, and they consume more packaged and processed food than people in most other countries. And since the 2012 survey, more Americans are saying that they view owning a big house as an important goal in their lives. 4. The le
24、ast green feel the least guilt.As in past surveys, the worst offenders express the least guilt about the size of their environmental footprint. British, German and Swedish consumers not only feel the least regret but also are the most likely say they wont change their ways.5. Repairing, reusing and
25、recycling are on the rise.Majorities in 17 of the 18 countries say theyd rather repair than replace a broken item, with Chinese and German consumers the most likely to fix something and Japanese consumers the least likely.

31、home alone (CleverPet) and even speak with a human voice (Petspeak). The Petzi TreatCam lets Anne Ryan check on her dogs Oscar and Reggie at her Berkeley home when she s working in San Francisco or traveling out of state. The Internet-connected device lets her see her dogs, talk to them, take photos
32、 and even dispense(分发) treats-using an app on her phone. I turn it on, get to see them, get to talk to them and it changes my mood, and puts me back in a positive frame, said Ryan said. I didnt know that I needed it , but now I dont think that I could live without it. The Petzi TreatCam was created
33、by San Jose-based Petzila, which was founded by two veteran technology executives who wanted to get their pets online.

34、ft their safe zone and helps find them if they get lost. The device also lets owners track how much exercise and sleep their animals are getting.
