問題詳情

四、閱讀測驗 ( 占 3 2 分 )  第 41 至 44 題為題組 Is your dog an Einstein or a Charmer? For US $60, a recently-founded company called Dognitionwill help you learn more about your dog’s cognitive traits. It offers an online test telling you about thebrain behind the bark. Dognition’s test measures a dog’s intellect in several aspects—from empathy to memory toreasoning skills. But don’t expect it to measure your pet’s IQ. Dr. Hare, one of the venture’s co-founders,says a dog’s intelligence can’t be described with a single number. Just as humans have a wide range ofintelligences, so do dogs. The question is what type your dog relies on more. After you plunk your money down, Dognition’s website will take you through a questionnaire aboutyour dog: For example, how excited does your dog get around other dogs, or children? Do fireworks scareyour pup? Then, Dognition guides you through tests that are as fun as playing fetch or hide-and-seek. Atthe end, you get a report of your dog’s cognitive profile. Your dog could fall into one of nine categories: Ace, Stargazer, Maverick, Charmer, Socialite,Protodog, Einstein, Expert, or Renaissance Dog. That can give you something to brag about onDognition’s Facebook page. It also can shed new light on why dogs do the things they do. For example, aCharmer is a dog that trusts you so much that it would prefer to solve problems using information yougive it rather than information it can get with its own eyes. Dognition helps people understand their dogs in ways that they have never been able to do. This newunderstanding can enrich the relationship between dogs and their owners.
