Scientists have long known that chimpanzees sometimes use leaves or insects as medicine. Now, researchers studying chimpanzees in Uganda have discovered that the animals will sometimes provide “first aid” to each other. This suggests that chimpanzees may be able to think about how to help others, as well as themselves.
Chimpanzees are one of the animal species most closely related to humans. Because of this, researchers have carefully studied the lives of chimpanzees in many different ways. One area that has scientists curious is how chimpanzees care for themselves when they are sick or hurt.
In 2021, Dr. Elodie Freymann went to Uganda to study the chimpanzees in the Budongo Forest. She was interested in learning more about the methods the chimpanzees used to help themselves when they got hurt. Dr. Freymann had already done work investigating how chimps eat certain plants, using them as medicine.
As Dr. Freymann was looking through notes from other researchers, she noticed that there were several stories about chimpanzees caring for themselves or others. She and her team decided to look through 30 years of notes from researchers who had studied chimpanzees in the region. They also spent eight months studying two separate groups of chimpanzees in the forest.
The researchers found 34 examples of chimpanzees treating their own wounds. Often this sort of “self-care” was very basic, like licking a wound or cleaning themselves with leaves. Sometimes it was more complicated. In some cases, Dr. Freymann says, the chimpanzees “chew the plants up, and then apply the chewed material to the open injury.”
Licking a wound can help remove dirt and other small items that might make it hard for the wound to heal. What’s more, the spit of some chimps can have chemicals that can help keep a wound from getting infected. The leaves of some plants can do this, too.
The self-care of the chimps was interesting. But even more interesting were the seven cases they found of chimpanzees helping out other chimpanzees. This seems to show that chimpanzees may be able to tell when another chimpanzee needs help. It’s fairly unusual for animals to try to help another injured animal.
In one case, a teenage male chimp was seen sucking on the leg of another young male chimp, helping clean a wound.
Some of the chimps who helped others weren’t even related. In one case, a male chimp helped an unrelated female chimp escape from a rope trap that had caught her.
One big question for the scientists is how much of this behavior comes from the chimpanzees’ natural instincts, and how much is learned from other chimps.
In one notable case, an adult female chewed a leaf to put on her wound. The chimp’s younger daughter saw this, and then did exactly the same thing, chewing up a leaf and putting it on her mother’s injury.
Dr. Freymann believes that some behaviors come from instinct, but others seem so complicated that they’re probably learned. She plans to continue studying chimpanzees in order to learn more.

科学家们早就知道黑猩猩有时会用树叶或昆虫当药物。如今,研究乌干达黑猩猩的科研人员发现,这些动物偶尔还会互相提供“急救”。这表明黑猩猩可能具备思考如何帮助他人和自己的能力。
作为与人类亲缘关系最近的动物物种之一,研究人员通过多种方式深入研究了黑猩猩的生活习性。其中令科学家好奇的是,当黑猩猩生病或受伤时,它们是如何自我照料的。
2021年,艾洛迪·弗雷曼博士前往乌干达布东戈森林研究黑猩猩。她希望深入了解黑猩猩在受伤时如何自救。此前,弗雷曼博士已开展过关于黑猩猩食用特定植物作为药物的研究。
在查阅其他研究人员的笔记时,弗雷曼博士注意到多篇记载黑猩猩自我照料或救助他人的案例。她带领团队翻阅了该地区研究者三十年来的记录,并花费八个月时间对森林中的两组黑猩猩进行观察。
研究人员共发现34例黑猩猩自我处理伤口的案例。这类“自我护理”通常非常基础,比如舔舐伤口或用树叶清洁身体;有时则更为复杂。在某些情况下,弗雷曼博士弗雷曼博士指出,黑猩猩会“啃食植物,然后将咀嚼后的材料涂抹在开放性伤口上。”
舔舐伤口有助于清除污垢和其他可能阻碍愈合的小物件。更重要的是,某些黑猩猩的唾液含有能防止伤口感染的化学物质。某些植物的叶子也有类似功效。
黑猩猩的自我护理行为很有趣,但更引人注目的是他们发现的七起同类互助案例。这似乎表明黑猩猩能够感知同伴是否需要帮助——动物主动救助受伤同伴的情况实属罕见。
在一个案例中,一只成年雄性黑猩猩被观察到正在为另一只年轻雄性黑猩猩吸吮腿部以清理伤口。
部分互救黑猩猩甚至没有血缘关系。例如,一只雄性黑猩猩曾帮助一只无关雌性黑猩猩挣脱绳索陷阱。
科学家们面临一个重大疑问:这种行为有多少源自黑猩猩的天性,又有多少是通过学习获得的?
一个典型案例显示,成年雌性黑猩猩咀嚼树叶敷在伤口上。其幼崽目睹这一行为后,立即效仿用树叶处理母亲的伤口。
弗雷曼博士认为部分行为源于本能,但其他复杂行为很可能经过习得。她计划继续研究黑猩猩以获取更多认知。
Passage1阅读理解
(2025`黑龙江省牡丹江市第一高级中学高三下学期模拟预测)
Scientists in Australia thought they had developed a new tracking device to help them monitor magpies (喜鹊), but these birds had other ideas.
Australian magpies are medium-sized black and white birds from the same bird“family” as crows and bluejays. They are known to be quite clever. They live in groups of up to 12 birds and work together to defend the area they live in.
The purpose of the scientists’ experiment was to learn more about how far they travel each day and how their social behaviors are influenced by sex, age, and rank. Besides, the scientists were eager to test the newly developed tracking device.
Most trackers are too big to fit on small and medium sized birds, and small trackers tend to be limited when it comes to data storage, battery life, and reusability. The new tracker,weighing less than 1 gram, was designed to overcome these problems. Attached to a backpack-like harness (背带) which could not be removed easily, the device can re-charge wirelessly and transmit (传输) data wirelessly.
The scientists placed trackers on five magpies using their special harnesses. Things started to fall apart almost immediately. Within 10 minutes of fitting the final tracker, an adult female without a tracker tried to remove the harness from a younger bird and eventually succeeded. This pattern was repeated in the following hours, and by the third day none of the birds had trackers anymore.
Scientists refer to this as“rescue behavior,” and it happens when a helper tries to free another individual in trouble and with no obvious direct benefit to the rescuing individual.They think this is the first time rescue behavior has been reported for Australian magpies.However, they aren’t sure if the same individual removed all of the harnesses or if others offered help.
The team didn’t get the data they wanted, but their experiment still produced interesting results. That’s how science works sometimes. The scientists need to try, again to figure out a good way to track these clever birds.
1.What can we learn about Australian magpies from paragraph 2?
A.They outsmart crows.B.They are social species.
C.They are rarely spotted.D.They learn from each other.
2.What is a big advantage of the new tracking device?
A.It can work without wires.B.It can be applied to all birds.
C.It doesn’t come off the birds.D.It doesn’t need to be re-charged.
3.What happened to the magpies after the trackers were attached to them?
A.They couldn’t fly as normal.
B.They were warned by other magpies.
C.They helped each other to remove the trackers.
D.They were driven out of their home by other adult magpies.
4.Which can be the best title for the text?
A.Magpies Teach Scientists an Unexpected Lesson
B.Climate Change Makes Magpies More Difficult
C.The Trackers Help Magpies Get Used to Nature
D.Magpies Are Adjusting to the Trackers on Their Bodies

Passage2 7选5
(2025届山东省青岛市高三下学期5月三模)
Science is rapidly pushing frontiers in an era where imagination seems the only limit. But when no real limits exist, we risk crossing lines that shouldn’t be crossed. 1 Mary Shelley’s 1818novel Frankenstein warns of what happens when science ignores its natural boundaries.
In the story, Victor Frankenstein creates a monster (怪物) from old body parts. As it comes to life, he panics and abandons it. Desperate for connection, the creature approaches society — only to meet with rejection and violence. 2 What unfolds is the disastrous tale of the death of everyone Frankenstein cared for.
3 They realize it is mistreated, and has feelings just like humans. Its multiple layers of emotion — the desire to fit in with society, the resulting anger and his sense of regret — arguably make the monster himself more human than Frankenstein.
Over two centuries later, Shelley’s novel remains profoundly relevant as a warning tale about unchecked ambition and its ethical (道德的) consequences. 4 This is also stressed by US historian of science Megan Halpern, who notes that the monster became dangerous only after its creator abandoned it. 5 To create an AI robot might not be a crime of innovation, but to do so without taking the responsibility for actively seeking ethical ways to use the robot might be.
Though a frightening tale of horror and destruction, Frankenstein encourages readers to look beyond the surface. After all, how does one actually classify a monster?
A.Therefore, it answers with cruelty.
B.She warns that there might be a similar risk.
C.But many readers feel sympathy for the creature.
D.However, it eventually finds peace when left alone.
E.This tension between progress and responsibility isn’t new.
F.Such breakthroughs remind readers of humanity’s potential.
G.She questions whether progress always results in a positive outcome.
【答案】1.E 2.A 3.C 4.G 5.B
【解析】本文是一篇议论文。本文以《弗兰肯斯坦》为例,探讨科技进步无界限可能带来的伦理问题,提醒人们在追求创新的同时需承担责任。
1.上文“Science is rapidly pushing frontiers in an era where imagination seems the only limit. But when no real limits exist, we risk crossing lines that shouldn’t be crossed.(在这个想象力似乎成为唯一限制的时代,科学正迅速开拓新的领域。但当真正的界限不复存在时,我们便面临跨越不该跨越的红线的风险。)”指出科学发展可能突破界限。选项E“This tension between progress and responsibility isn’t new.(这种进步与责任之间的矛盾并非新鲜事。)”与上文的“risk crossing lines”形成逻辑衔接,点明“进步与责任的冲突”这一核心主题。故选E。
2.上文“In the story, Victor Frankenstein creates a monster (怪物) from old body parts. As it comes to life, he panics and abandons it. Desperate for connection, the creature approaches society — only to meet with rejection and violence.(故事中,维克多・弗兰肯斯坦用旧躯体部件创造了一个怪物。当它获得生命时,维克多惊恐万分并抛弃了它。怪物迫切渴望与人类建立联系,却只能遭遇排斥与暴力。)”描述怪物被人类拒绝和暴力对待后的反应。选项A“Therefore, it answers with cruelty.(因此,它以残酷行为作为回应。)”与上文构成因果关系,说明怪物因遭受伤害而以残酷行为回应,推动情节发展。故选A。
3.下文“They realize it is mistreated, and has feelings just like humans. Its multiple layers of emotion — the desire to fit in with society, the resulting anger and his sense of regret — rguably make the monster himself more human than Frankenstein.(他们意识到它遭受了虐待,且拥有与人类一样的情感。怪物多层次的情感——渴望融入社会的诉求、由此产生的愤怒,以及悔恨之情——无疑让它比弗兰肯斯坦本人更具人性。)”提到读者意识到怪物被虐待且有人类情感。选项C“But many readers feel sympathy for the creature.(但许多读者却对这个怪物心怀同情。)”直接呼应后文“multiple layers of emotion”,表明读者对怪物的同情,与“more human than Frankenstein”形成对比。故选C。
4.上文“Over two centuries later, Shelley’s novel remains profoundly relevant as a warning tale about unchecked ambition and its ethical(道德的)consequences.(两个多世纪后的今天,雪莱的小说仍极具现实意义,它警示着无节制的野心及其引发的伦理后果。)”指出小说对无节制野心和道德后果的警示。选项G“She questions whether progress always results in a positive outcome.(她质疑科学进步是否总能带来积极的结果。)”中的“she”指的是雪莱;而“progress always results in a positive outcome”对应前文“unchecked ambition”,进一步点明小说对科学进步的反思。故选G。
5.空前“This is also stressed by US historian of science Megan Halpern, who notes that the monster became dangerous only after its creator abandoned it.(美国科学史学家梅根・哈尔彭也强调了这一点,她指出怪物之所以变得危险,正是因为创造者抛弃了它。)”指出梅根・哈尔彭也认为怪物之所以变得危险,正是因为创造者抛弃了它。选项B“She warns that there might be a similar risk.(她警告说,如今可能面临类似的风险。)”延续上文内容,指出梅根・哈尔彭警告如今面临类似的风险,从而引出下文“To create an AI robot might not be a crime of innovation, but to do so without taking the responsibility for actively seeking ethical ways to use the robot might be.(创造一个人工智能机器人或许并非创新之罪,但倘若在创造后不主动寻求符合伦理的使用方式并承担责任,就可能铸成大错。)”,从而体现了雪莱警告的现实意义。故选B。
