When we talk about smart animals, what comes to your mind? Your answer may be dogs or monkeys. Now, you can add one more to the list: sheep.
Sheep has powerful face-recognition abilities. Researchers from the University of Cambridge trained eight sheep to recognize the faces of four famous people and pick them out from two different photos. One was a photo of an unknown person and the other was one of the four famous people. If the sheep chose the right photo, it could get food but nothing if they did it wrong. After some time, the sheep could connect the food with the correct photos and make the right choice 8 out of 10 times.
Then the researchers gave them another task to see if the sheep could recognize the same person from a different angle. The photos showed only the left face or the right face. The animals were still able to recognize them, though their performance dropped by about 15%.
In the last test, the researchers showed photos of their trainers along with a number of other people’s faces. Without any training, the sheep could pick out their trainers 7 out of 10 times.
It is not surprising why sheep are smart. ▲ That means they can be useful models to help us understand brain diseases like Huntington’s disease. The study offers another way to learn how these abilities change, especially in sheep who carry the gene mutation (基因突变) that causes Huntington’s disease.
26. Why does the writer mention dogs and monkeys in the first paragraph?
A. To tell the difference among animals.
