A

Dogs have long been known to pick up scent(气味）that humans can’t, but they may also be able to tell time using their noses. The theory has been around for some time, but a new book backs up the idea that “dogs smell time”.

“As each day has a new smell, its hours mark changes in smell that your dog can notice,” explains Professor Alexandra. The dog expert makes the claim in her new book, Being a Dog, which is based on her research at Barnard College’s dog Cognition Lab, of which she is the founder.

While for most humans, the world is mainly visual(视觉的), for dogs, their world is based on scents. Dogs are often used to sniff out drugs, explosives, and even cancers, thanks to their surprising sense of smell.

Even for humans, scents can give clues as to what time of day it is, such as the smell of freshly boiled coffee in the morning. The expert believes that dogs can notice small changes in scent during the day, giving them a sense of time.

“Smells in a room change as the day goes on. Hot air rises, and it usually rises in currents along the walls and will rise to the ceiling and go to the center of the room and drop.” Professor Alexandra explained in an interview with Fresh Air. “The dog, I think, can smell the movement of that air through the room.” She adds.

This could explain why a dog can tell when its owner is due to return home. If the loyal dog is able to notice the level of its owner’s declining scent since he/she left the house, it may be able to predict roughly when he/she is due to come back. 21. What does the underlined phrase in the first paragraph mean? A. Supports. B. Challenges. C. Doubts. D. Raises. 22. What has the expert found?

A. Dogs can pick up scents that other animals can’t. B. Dogs may not be that sensitive to scents.

C. Dogs have a special sense of smell. D. Dogs can tell time through smells in the air.

23. How do dogs know when their owners are coming back home according to the text?

A. By the changes in the color in the center of the ceiling. B. By the smell of the freshly boiled coffee in the morning. C. By the level of declining scent after they leave. D. By the temperature of the air after they leave.
