Rolling Stones
The rock group, members Mick Jagger (1943 -) vocals, Keith Richards (1943 -) guitar, Bill Wyman (1936 -) bass, Charlie Watts (1941 -) drams, Ron Wood (1947 -) guitar, former member Brian Jones (1942 - 69) guitar, one of the longest-running and most successful popular music groups to emerge in the 1960s. They first performed together in 1962. At first, they were very much in the shadow of The Beatles, but their less boyish, more rebellious style. together with their more aggressive music soon won them a large following. Although their uninhibited life styles and overtly sexual lyrics often hit the headlines, it was the excellence of their com- positions (usually by Jagger and Richard) that ensured their continuing success. Among their early hits were "The Last Time" and "Satisfaction". Later albums include Exile on Main Street (1972) and Tattoo You (1981).

In Pakistan the role of women is changing. Although wearing traditional clothing and staying at home used to be the role, today many women are going into professions, such as medicine, law, and engineering. They comprise a large part of the workers in business and factories, and in addition, they are working up to important jobs which used to be held predominantly by men. There are even some businesses which are run completely by women. However, they still run up against roadblocks since many government jobs are closed to them, and certain jobs are not considered honorable for women. In general, they feel they are more liberated now and have an alternative to their old way of life.
The main idea of the passage is ______.
A. women in Pakistan are liberated totally
B. women in Pakistan are entering men's world
C. women in Pakistan should wear traditional clothes and stay at home
D. women in Pakistan are running some business completely
Some animal behaviorists argue that certain animals can remember past events, anticipate future ones, make plans and choices, and coordinate activities within a group. These scientists, however, are cautious about the extent to which animals can be credited with conscious processing.
Explanations of animal behavior. that leave out any sort of consciousness at all and ascribe actions entirely to instinct leave many questions unanswered. One example of such unexplained behavior. Honeybees communicate the sources of nectar to one another by doing a dance in a figure-eight pattern. The orientation of the dance conveys the position of the food relative to the sun's position in the sky, and the speed of the dance tells how far the food source is from the hive. Most researchers assume that the ability to perform. and encode the dance is innate and shows no special intelligence. But in one study, when experimenters kept changing the site of the food source, each time moving the food 25 percent farther from the previous site, foraging honeybees began to anticipate where the food source would appear next. When the researchers arrived at the new location, they would find the bees circling the spot, waiting for their food. No one has yet explained how bees, whose brains weigh four ten-thousandths of an ounce, could have inferred the location of the new site.
Other Behaviors that may indicate some cognition include tool use. Many animals, like the otter who uses a stone to crack mussel shells, are capable of using objects in the natural environment as rudimentary tools. One researcher has found that mother chimpanzees occasionally show their young how to use tools to open hard nuts. In one study, chimpanzees compared two pairs of food containing chocolate chips. One pair might contain, say, five chips and three chips, the other four chips and three chips. Allowed to choose which pair they wanted, the chimpanzees almost always chose the one with the higher total, showing some sort of summing ability. Other chimpanzees have learned to label quantities of items and do simple sums.
Which of the following is NOT discussed as an ability animals are thought to have?
A. Selecting among choices.
B. Anticipating events to come.
C. Remembering past experiences.
D. Communicating emotions.
