Every Dog Has Its Say

Kimiko Fukuda，a Japanese girl，always wondered what her dog was trying to say.

Whenever she put on makeup，it would pull at her sleeve．_____(46)When the dog barks，

she glances at a small electronic gadget (装置)．The following“human”translation appears on its

screen：“Please take me with you．”“I realized that’s how he was feeling．”said Fukuda．

  The gadget is called Bowlingual，and it translates dog barks into feelings．People laughed

when the Japanese toymaker Takara Company made the world’s first dog-human translation

machine in 2002．But 300，000 Japanese dog owners bought it．______(47)

  “Nobody else had thought about it，”said Masahiko Kajita，who works for Takara“We

spend so much time training dogs to understand our orders；what would it be like if we could

understand dogs?”

Bowlingual has two parts．____(48)The translation is done in the gadget using a database(资料库)containing every kind of bark．

  Based on animal behaviour research，these noises are divided into six categories：happiness，

Sadness, frustration，anger，declaration and desire．_____(49)In this way，the database

scientifically matches a bark to an emotion，which is then translated into one of 200 phrases．

  When a visitor went to Fukuda’s house recently，the dog barked a loud“bow wow”．This

translated as“Don’t come this way”_____(50)

  The product will be available in US pet stores this summer for about US$120 It can store up

to 100 barks，even recording the dog’s emotions when the owner is away．

    held by the owner．

B  Nobody really knows how a dog feels

C  It was followed by“I’m stronger than you”as the dog growled(嗥叫)and sniffed(嗅)at the

    visitor

D  More customers are expected when the English version is launched this summer

E  Now，the Japanese girl thinks she knows

F  Each one of these emotions is then linked to a phrase like“Let’s play”，“Look at me”，or

    “Spend more time with me”．

Earth’s Inner Core

Scientists have long struggled to understand what lies at the planet’s center, Direct

observation of its center is impossible，so researchers must_____(51)to other evidence．

  In 1889，a German scientist detected a severe earthquake in Japan．Geophysicists concluded

that shock waves_____(52)jolts(晃动)from one side of Earth through the center to the

other side．Then in 1936，Danish geophysicist Inge Lehmann studied the waves______(53)

to determine that within Earth’s core of molten(熔化了的)iron lies a solid inner core-but_____

(54)that core was made of eluded(难倒)her．Other geophysicists quickly

determined that Lehmann’s inner core was composed mostly_____(55)iron. Since then，

Lehmann’s discovery has_____(56)conventional Earth science．

  But now scientists are challenging traditional theory with new and radical _____(57)

For example，Earth’s center could actually contain an“inner core within the inner core，claim Ishii and colleague Adam Dziewonski．

Analyzing hundreds of thousands of earthquake wave _____(58),they maintain that the inner core has at its heart a tiny, even more solid sphere(球体) . This sphere‘‘may be the oldest fossil____(59)from the formation of Earth，”says Dziewonski．

Dziewonski and Ishii speculate that shortly_____(60)  Earth formed around 4.8billion years ago，a giant asteroid(小行星)smashed into the young planet and nearly melted it. But Earth’s center didn’t quite melt；it______(61)mass as the planet cooled.  The core within a core may be the kernel(核心)that endured．“Its presence could change our basic ideas about the_____ (62)of the planet，”Dziewonski says idea is tame(温和的)compared to the_____(63)theories of independent geophysicist J．Marvin Herndon．Earth’s inner core is made not of iron，he claims

but a_____(64)of nickel and silicon Hemdon has a truly revolutionary notion：Within the nickel silicide(硅化物)inner core is also an“inner”inner core—an 8 km—wide ball of the element uranium．Uranium is radioactive．Hemdon thinks the uranium releases heat energy as its atoms_____(65)fission-split and crash into another in a chain reaction. In other words,we may live on top of a gigantic, “natural”nuclear power plant.
