高考主题下的阅读理解
【典例1】(2022·全国甲卷)Goffin’s cockatoos, a kind of small parrot
native to Australasia, have been shown to have similar shape recognition
abilities to a human two year old. Though not known to use tools in the wild,
the birds have proved skilful at tool use while kept in the cage. In a recent
experiment, cockatoos were presented with a box with a nut inside it. The
clear front of the box had a“keyhole”in a geometric shape, and the birds
were given five differently shaped“keys”to choose from. Inserting the
correct“key”would let out the nut.
In humans,babies can put a round shape in a round hole from around one
year of age,but it will be another year before they are able to do the same with
less symmetrical(对称的)shapes. This ability to recognize that a shape will
need to be turned in a specifi c direction before it will fi t is called an“allocentric
frame of reference”. In the experiment, Goffi n’s cockatoos were able to select
the right tool for the job, in most cases, by visual recognition alone. Where trial
and error was used,the cockatoos did better than monkeys in similar tests.
This indicates that Goffi n’s cockatoos do indeed possess an allocentric frame of
reference when moving objects in space, similar to two year old babies.
The next step, according to the researchers, is to try and work out whether
the cockatoos rely entirely on visual clues(线索), or also use a sense of touch
in making their shape selections.(词汇积累:frame n. 框架;visual adj. 视力
