to make it and wanted to give up.

Her father, a cook, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with 3 and placed each on a high fire. In one he placed carrots, in the second he put eggs, and in the last he put coffee beans. He let them boil, without saying a word.

The daughter had no idea what he was trying to do. Half an hour later, he turned down the fire, and put the carrots, eggs, and the coffee into different bowls. He asked her daughter to feel the carrots. She did and said that they were soft. He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she watched the hard-boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to drink the coffee, she smiled. \

He explained that each of them had faced the same situation, 212degrees of boiling water. However, they had different result. The carrot went in used to be hard but after going through boiling water it became soft. The inside of the egg became hardened in the boiling water. The coffee beans are the most powerful, after they were in the boiling water, they turned the water into tasty coffee.

The fact that dogs and cats dislike each other is no secret. Now the results of this new study may cause a similar feeling between the animal owners. That's because it says that cat owners are usually smarter than dog owners!

Denise Guastello, a doctor made a survey of 600 university students. He asked the teenagers to choose themselves as dog or cat lovers. The survey also included questions that helped the doctor decide on their personalities. When the results were examined, the doctor made the decision that cat people are

cleverer than dog people.

Denise says that the results are clear because people who prefer dogs usually like being outdoors with their pets, getting along with other like-minded people. However, those that prefer cats have personalities that are more introverted. They would rather spend their days reading or on some other 'intellectual' （智力的）activity. She believes that it is probably why they chose cats in the first place.

For those who don’t believe the survey, here is some sad news - This is not the first time researchers have made this kind of decision. A 2010 study made by U.K.'s Bristol University said that 'cat' people were more educated than 'dog' people.

However, not all is lost for dog owners. While they may be not as smart, their pets sure are. That was showed by a 2009 study in which there were two pieces of lines in front of the dogs and cats, only one line was put together with food. Guess which one could get the food? Dogs, this time! ( ) 21. Who took part in Denise Guastello’s survey?

A. Dogs B. Cats C. Students D. Teachers
