catch a taxi(about$20)to western Sydney's newest hotel，the Atura Blacktown. It's a sleek but welcoming hotel with an open－plan lobby that incorporates an inhouse restaurant and a comfortable lounge area.Upstairs，we quickly warm to our modern guestroom，which features reliable，free Wi－fi，free movies on a large wall－mounted TV，and in the bathroom Malin＋Goetz toiletries(洗漱用品)．It's good value at about $160 for a king room.

8 p．m.—Dinner and a drive－in movie

The hotel's Roadhouse Bar and Grill has an upscale menu(mains $25—$40 per person)but a casual atmosphere，with an open kitchen and families seated at several tables.We've been

told not to fill up on dinner so we reluctantly leave our tender scotch fillet and expertly pan－fried barramundi unfinished.At the reception，we pick up keys to the hotel's white Cadillac，which is parked out front，and drive around the corner to the Skyline Drive－In($20 for one car with two passengers)．

Saturday

9 a．m.—Feasting in Bonnyrigg

Everywhere we go，there is food.At the temple，we watch a famous Laotion chef prepare pawpaw salad，while at the

mosque we are offered feather－light fairy floss.Later，in a low－ceilinged Asian grocer，we are fed sublime rice－paper rolls by a proprietor who speaks five languages.Those who dismiss ordinary Australians as conservative and intolerant have clearly not visited Bonnyrigg.

6 p．m.—People－watching at The Emporium In Parramatta，the venue(场所)of the moment is The Emporium，a 150－seat exposed－brick space with a mod－Oz menu which leans Mediterranean.Unlike many of the more casual places we visit over the weekend，The Emporium has a

decidedly grown－up atmosphere，full of well－dressed couples and smart wait staff.Dishes like a delicate stew of Moreton Bay bugs($36)and truffle－stuffed chicken breast(also $36)are delicious.Don't expect to get a table on Saturday night unless you book ahead.

Everyone likes a big pay rise.But if you know that a co－worker has been given a bigger one，the pleasure at one's own will disappear at once.If the colleague is known for not working hard，one might be angrier.Such behavior is regarded as“all too human”，with the underlying(潜在的)assumption that other animals would not be capable of this finely developed sense of dissatisfaction.But a study by researchers from Emory University in Atlanta，Georgia has suggested that it is all too monkey，as well.

The researchers studied the behavior of female brown capuchin monkeys(僧帽猴). They look cute.They are good－natured，co－operative creatures，and they share their food readily.Above all，like their female humans，they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of“goods and services”than males.

Such characteristics make them perfect candidates for Dr.Brosnan and Dr.de Waal's study.The researchers spent two years teaching their monkeys to exchange

10

tokens(代币)for food.Normally，the monkeys were happy enough to exchange pieces of rock for slices of cucumber.However，when two monkeys were placed in separate but neighboring rooms，so that each could observe what the other was getting in return for its rock，their behavior became markedly different.

In the world of capuchins，grapes are luxury goods and much preferable to (cucumbers)．So when one monkey was handed a grape in exchange for her token，the second was reluctant to hand hers over for a mere piece of cucumber.And if one received a grape without having to provide her token in exchange at all，the other either tossed her own token at the researcher or out of the chamber，or refused to accept the slice of cucumber.Indeed，the mere presence of a grape in the other chamber(without an actual monkey to eat it)was enough to arouse anger in a female capuchin.

The researchers suggest that capuchin monkeys，like humans，are guided by social emotions.In the wild，they are a co－operative，group－living species.Such co－operation is likely to be stable only when each animal feels it is not being cheated.Feelings of righteous indignation(义愤填膺)，it seems，are not the preserve of people alone.Refusing a lesser reward completely makes these feelings abundantly clear to other members of the group.However，whether such a sense of fairness evolved independently in capuchins and humans，or whether it originates from the common ancestor that the species had 35 million years ago，is，as yet，an unanswered question.

公平意识并不是人类所独有的，研究人员们在雌性僧帽猴的身上也发现了这种公平意识。

38．The researchers have found that capuchin monkeys ________． A．can be taught to exchange things

B．will not be co－operative if feeling unequally treated C．are unhappy when separated from other members D．prefer grapes to cucumbers

B [细节理解题。根据最后一段第三句可知选B。]

39．The underlined word“it”in Paragraph 1 refers to “________”．

11

A．showing senses similar to humans' B．being angry about unfairness C．feeling jealous of those capable ones D．showing dislike of lazy behavior

B [词义猜测题。根据划线词上文内容可知，it在此处指代上文出现过的such behavior，也就是“对不公平事物表现出的愤慨之情”。]

40．What can be implied from the last paragraph? A．Monkeys can be trained to develop social emotions. B．Co－operation among monkeys only exists in the wild.

C．Monkeys refuse a reward if other members are not given the same. D．Capuchin's sense of fairness results from an unknown source. D [细节理解题。根据最后一段末句可知D项正确。]

Scientific studies of techniques for deliberately changing the climate are getting ready to move out of the laboratory.

In 1990，John Latham，a cloud physicist，argued that if low－lying clouds over the sea were made a bit brighter，the Earth could be cooled enough to make up for the increased warming caused by greenhouse gases.The brightening was to be achieved by transferring with the air tiny sea salt particles(颗粒)up into the clouds.They would increase the number of water droplets(水滴)in the clouds and thus reflect a large amount of sunlight out into space.Dr Latham calculated that it was likely to work.

A quarter of a century on，such_a_test_could_soon_be_on_the_cards．Pitifully，for more than ten years Dr Latham's idea was almost entirely ignored.Then it caught the attention of Stephen Salter of the University of Edinburgh.He started to pay attention and analyze the possibility.The question of whether anyone could actually produce ship－borne sprayers(喷雾器)that would reliably produce particles a ten－thousandth of a millimetre in diameter(直径)at a rate of 1，000 trillion a second remained open.

Armand Neukermans，a retired Silicon Valley engineer，has looked at a range of possible techniques.One that may be up to the job is atomization(雾化)，in which，
