They had got all the necessities for emergency.CDarwin noted that some human emotional expressions might have started as part of a physiological function: for example, exposing the teeth to bite fo
28、od. The function, however, took on meaning and became a form of communication which signals anger.The same may be true for the animals. Baby monkeys cry for attention. They also cry to signal to an adult that they want to be carried.“Chimpanzees do make upset voice when they are being weaned (断奶) by
29、 their mothers or have lost their mothers or another individual,” says Anne Pusey, a professor at the University of Minnesota. “They whimper (呜咽 ) and cry and scream. When we hear these calls, the emotion involved seems obvious. However, they do not weep in the sense of producing tears. I have seen
30、an adolescent male whimpering when he lost sight of his older brother with whom he had been traveling.”Babies of many mammalian species, including rats, cry. Moreover, when a baby rat cries, often his mother brings the fallen pup back into the nest. This is probably a straightforward communication,
31、as it is with humans. However, psychologists at the University of Iowa arent convinced.The Iowan researchers can cause the same crying sounds by producing large decreases andthen increases in blood flow. The blood flow also goes down when baby rats get cold. Thus, they conclude baby rats cry in the
32、same way that we sneeze. Of course the rat baby could be crying because hes cold and wants his mother to know. “All young mammals make cries when separated from their mother,” says Jaak Panksepp, a psychologist at Bowling Green State University. “If youre willing to call this crying, then certainly
33、other animals show this emotional response.” he says, “ Some of us take seriously that animals do have emotions.”28.

35、C. Their blood flow is increased.D. Their mother brings them back home.31. Where is the passage most likely taken from?A. An animal journal. B. A physiology book. C. A health magazine. D. A cultural newspaper.DMost people who own iPhones use them as their alarm clocksmaking it very easy to check ema
36、ils one last time before falling asleep and hard to ever feel away from work and social networks. Several years ago, my boss fainted due to exhaustion after staying up late to catch up on work. She banged her head and ended up with five stitches (缝针) and became what she calls a “sleep evangelist (传教
37、士).” Now she leaves her phone charging in another room when she goes to bed and encourages her friends to do the same.“I sent all my friends the same Christmas gifta lovely alarm clockso they could stop using the excuse that they needed their very attractive iPhones by their beds to wake them up in
38、the morning.” she said.If your phone wakes you up in the morning, it may also be keeping you up at night. A 2008 study showed that people exposed to mobile radiation took longer to fall asleep and spent less time in deep sleep. “The study indicates that during laboratory exposure to 884 MHz wireless
39、 signals, components of sleep believed to be important for recovery from daily wear and tear are severely affected,” the study concluded.A quarter of young people feel like they must be available by phone around the clock, according to a Swedish study that linked heavy cellphone use to sleeping prob
40、lems, stress and depression. Unreturned messages carry more guilt when the technology to deal with them lies at our fingertips. Some teens even return text messages at midnight.Most of us choose not to set limits on our nighttime availability. Nearly three quarters of people from the age of 18 to 44
