Not a day goes by when I don’t miss my father’s huge character or my beloved sister’s gentle eyes , but I know that I will be with them one day .

What do you usually do to comfort your friends when they are feeling sad or depressed ? You probably pat them on the back or shoulder , or maybe you give them a big , warm hug .

We used to think that knowing when and how to comfort others was an ability that only humans have . But scientists have discovered that apes（猩猩）have this ability , too , according to a study published in the Journal of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences .

Two researchers from Emory University in Atlanta , US , went to an Ape Protection Centre in Congo to study bonobos（倭黑猩猩）, which are closely related to humans .

The researchers analyzed the bonobos’ reactions after more than 370 cases of stressful situations , such as fights and losing temper , and found that some bonobos rushed to hug those that were screaming after being attacked , just like humans would have done .

However , researchers noted hat not all bonobos were capable of comforting others . In the protection centre , many bonobos are orphans whose mothers were killed by hunters . They were found to be more anxious in times of tension and to have greater difficulty controlling their own emotions , making them worse at reaching out to help friends in need .

“ Orphans , who have not had the benefit of a mother helping them handling their emotions , are much worse at comforting others , ” Professor Frans de Waal , one of the researchers , told The Telegraph . “ Bonobos with moms were able to curb their negative emotional reactions more quickly . Therefore , they pay more attention to others . ”

This pattern mirrors the way that human children have been found to react . Those who seem more capable of handling their own emotions – for example , the ones who can calm themselves down more quickly after upsetting experiences – are usually better at expressing their concerns for others .

59. The 4th paragraph is mainly developed by __________ .

A. giving examples

B. following time order

C. making comparisons

D. presenting causes and effects

60. The underlined word “ curb ” in the 5th paragraph probably means “__________ ” .

A. Orphan bonobos never give a hand to friend .

B. There were 370 bonobos involved in the research .

C. The ability to comfort others is unique to human beings .

D. Moms play a significant role in handling kids’ emotions .

62. What’s the main purpose of this passage ?

A. To inform readers of a new study .

B. To uncover the mystery of Apes .

C. To provide better protection for Apes .

D. To compare human behaviors with Apes’ .

D

This year marks 46 years since Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the moon . In all , 12 American astronauts have walked on the moon , the last – Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt – doing so in 1972 .

Enthusiasm for space travel has always decreased and increased . In 2010 , President Barack Obama cut funds for a NASA mission that would have put humans back on the moon by 2020 . “ I understand that some believe that we should attempt a return to the surface of the moon first , as previously planned . But I just have to say here : We’ve been there before , ” Obama said . NASA Administrator Charles Bolden has also thrown cold water on the idea of a return mission to the moon .

But others believe there are benefits to going back to the moon . “ It’s the closest body to us , making it the least challenging to explore of all the planets , moons and asteroids in our solar system , ” wrote Gene R. Grush , from NASA Johnson Space Center . “ It’s an opportunity to establish a permanent presence off Earth – a moon base for scientists or a colony for all of humanity . ”

“ There is a lot of good science on the moon that we’ve only scratched the surface on , ” said former astronaut Tom Jones . Richard Vondrak , from NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center , agrees , saying , “ Astronauts can accomplish scientific exploration that is beyond the capability of robotic explorers . ”

And then there’s the private business . In the last few years , several private companies – including Elon Musk’s SpaceX – have launched rockets of their own , ending the national control over space flight . NASA is even considering a partnership with SpaceX , and Musk has said that if demand to go to the moon exists , his company will help fill it .

Meanwhile , Buzz Aldrin , the second person to walk on the moon , believes that there’s a much better target for exploration : Mars . “ We’ve done the moon – we understand it better than anything else , ” Aldrin said . “ We’ve got to start thinking of long-term investments . ”

63. Richard Vondrak may support that __________ .

A. we have had a full understanding of the moon

B. going back to the moon is a short-term investment

C. we cannot merely rely on robots to explore the moon

D. it is a waste of money to put humans back on the moon

64. How many people mentioned in the passage are against going back to the moon ?

A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 5

65. According to the passage , we can learn that __________ .

A. President Barack Obama thought people should attempt to return to the moon

B. all the astronauts who have been to the moon don’t agree to go back there

C. people are always obsessed with space travel

D. Elon Musk’s SpaceX belongs to NASA

66. Which of the following could be the best title for this passage ?

A. Why Say No ?

B. Voices From Experts

C. Should We Go Back to the Moon ?

D. Business Development in Space Flights

Warren Buffett , probably the world’s most successful investor , has said that anything good that happened to him could be traced back to the fact that he was born in the right country , the United States , at the right time (1930) . In 1988 , when The World light-heartedly ranked 50 countries according to where would be the best place to be born in 1988 , America indeed came top . But which country will be the best for a baby born in 2015 ?

To answer this , the Economist Intelligence Unit ( EIU ) , has this time turned deadly serious . It attempts to measure which country will provide the best opportunities for a healthy , safe and prosperous life in the years ahead . Its quality-of-life index links the results of subjective life-satisfaction surveys – how happy people say they are – to objective determinants of the quality of life . Being rich helps more than anything else , but it is not all that counts ; things like crime , trust in public institutions and the health of family life matter too . In all , the index takes 11 significant factors into account .

Despite the global economic crisis , times have in certain respects never been so good . Output growth rates have been decreasing across the world , but income levels are at or near historic highs , Life expectancy continues to increase steadily and political freedoms have become better known across the globe .

What does all this mean for where a baby might be luckiest to be born in 2015 ? After calculation , the EIU has Switzerland comfortably in the top spot , with Australia second . Small economies occupy the top ten . Half of these are European , but only one , the Netherlands , is from the euro zone . The largest European economies ( Germany , France and Britain ) do not do particularly well . America , where babies will inherit the large debts of the boomer generation , stays in 16th place . Among the 80 countries covered , Nigeria comes last .

Some people will , of course , find more holes in all this than there are in a big Swiss cheese . For example , in the film “ The Third Man ” , Harry Lime famously says that Italy for 30 years had war , terror and murder under the Borgias but in that time produced Michelangelo , Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance ; Switzerland had 500 yeas of peace and democracy（民主）-- and produced clocks and watches .

However , there is surely a lot to be said for birth stability in today’s uncertain times .

67. The author uses the example of Warren Buffett to __________ .

A. make a contrast between past and present

B. introduce the topic of the passage

C. prove the birthplace’s importance

D. present a light-hearted picture for readers

68. We can infer from the passage that __________ .

A. Nigeria is the most unfortunate birthplace in the world

B. The World took the survey seriously in 1988 and so did the EIU this time

C. a good birthplace may not be the decisive factor for a person’s success

D. 11 significant factors have been taken into consideration in the index

69. The author’s attitude towards the birthplace is __________ .

A. supportive B. critical C. doubtful D. objective

70. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage ?

A. The world’s present economic environment is perfect .

B. In the index , being rich plays as important a part as trust in public institutions .

C. If a baby is born in the euro zone in 2015 , he will be definitely the luckiest one .

D. In Harry Lime’s opinion , Switzerland produced no masters despite its peace and democracy .
