Bookstores, like wines, have different notes, different flavors, each one distinct. There are the

musty (有霉味的), peculiar ones with random piles and dusty rows, usually with both used and new

books. There are the small stores charming and cozy. Then there’s the big-box with long, straight rows,

bright and dustless, usually featuring a cafe and a kid’s section you can get lost in.

My love for bookstores is, without a doubt, partly nostalgic ( 怀旧的). I came of age in the late

1990s, when Amazon was mostly known as a river in South America, phones were not smart and

bookstores were dotted around cities.

When my husband and I were dating, our go-to date was to get coffee and walk around bookstores

together. It was the best. We’d move slowly, wandering through the religion section, the memoirs,

fiction, poetry, history. I’d pick up a title I’d heard about and sit in the aisle reading a chapter. I’d find

one I’d never heard of and scan the back cover. We’d sip our coffee and read each other interesting

paragraphs from books we found.

I fell for bookstores and for my husband at the same time. So when stores began closing down all

over America, we were both sorrowful. What were we supposed to do with a night out now?

In a recent very informal and unscientific poll (调查) of my friends, I found that many of us love

and miss physical bookstores. Friends described the feeling of discovery and exploration, the calming

serenity (宁静) of being surrounded by words and ideas. My wise friend Greg said, “Bookstores are like

the best parties; you may discover a new friend or join an unexpected conversation with a simple turn of

your head.”

I dream of an America with streets full of independent bookstores whose inventories (库存清单)

contradict one another. But right now I’m in favor of any brick-and-mortar (实体的) book store, really.

Any place that reminds us that the material world is beautiful and worth spending time in. Any place

where we can learn how to exist together in communities full of words and ideas. Any place where we

may discover something unpredictable and new. And if there’s coffee nearby, even better.

A. They are easily out-of-date. B. They are a source of inspiration.

C. They are attractive to partygoers. D. They are intended for conversations.

7. Why did the author write this article?

D. To explore the reasons for the disappearance of bookstores.

Most dog owners are convinced that their four-legged friends know exactly what they mean when

they use certain words like “sit”, “stay” or “treat”. However, researchers have always wondered

whether dogs really understand human speech or if they rely on other information to get the meaning.

For example, does the word “fetch” form a picture of a stick or a ball in the dog’s mind, or does the dog

bring back the object based on the owner’s voice or gesture? A new study by scientists at Atlanta’s

Emory University seems to indicate that “man’s best friend” does indeed know what the owner is

saying.

The researchers began by asking the owners of twelve dogs of various kinds to train their pets to

identify two toys of different materials, such as a toy animal and a ball. Once the dogs had mastered the

task, they took turns inside a special scanner. The owners then tested their dogs’ language skill by first

calling out the names of the toys they had been trained to recognize and then saying meaningless words

such as “bobbu” and “bodmick” while holding up random objects the dogs hadn’t seen before.

The scans suggested that the parts of the dogs’ brains responsible for processing sounds showed

different brain patterns when they heard words they were familiar with, compared with the ones they

had never heard before. While that was not enough to prove that the dogs were picturing their toys

when they heard the words, it did indicate some sort of recognition. The researchers believe this is an

important step in understanding how dogs process language.

Something even more interesting was that the dogs’ brains showed a higher level of neural activity

at the sound of unknown words. This is the exact opposite of what happens in human brains, which get

more active at the sound of familiar words. The researchers say the dogs may become cheerful at the

sound of new words to try to understand them in the hope of delighting their masters. “Dogs want to

please their owners, and perhaps also want to receive praise or food,” says Emory neuroscientist

Gregory Berns, senior author of the study.

However, though your pet may understand human speech, the scientists recommend using visual

signals and smell for training. “When people want to teach their dog a trick, they often use spoken

commands because that’s what we humans prefer,” Prichard says. “From the dog’s view, however, a

visual command might be more effective, helping the dog learn the trick faster.”

8.What’s the purpose of the new study?

A.To convince dog owners to understand their dogs.

B.To advise dog owners to treat their dogs kindly.

C.To prove that dogs follow owners’ order by listening.

D.To test out how dogs get information from owners.

9.What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?

A.State the process of the research. B.Inform the result of the research.

C.Stress the importance of the research. D.Introduce the subjects of the research.

10.How do human brains and dog brains react to words?

A.Human brains become active in unfamiliar words.

B.Dog brains become delighted at unfamiliar words.

C.Human brains are not sensitive to familiar words.

D.Dog brains show no response to familiar words.

11.What do scientists advise the owners to do in dog training?

A.Give dogs oral commands. B.Teach dogs new tricks.

C.Involve sight and smell. D.Encourage faster learning.
