Cats are often considered to be more aloof than dogs, but cats really can understand their owners’ voices, a study has claimed. Japanese researchers have found that cats can distinguish their owners’ voices from those of other people—implying that they do pay attention when spoken to. The study, from the University of Tokyo, examined felines in their home environment. It involved recordings of strangers, as well as of the cats’ owners, but that cats could not see who was speaking to them. The researchers found that cats responded to voices by moving their heads and/or ears nearer the person who was speaking to them. Or, when the cats detected a familiar voice, they also had dilated pupils, which can signal emotions such as excitement, Discovery News reported. These reactions were more likely to occur when the cats heard their owners, voices or when they became increasingly familiar with strangers’ voices. Study co-author Atsuko Saito explained that dogs have evolved, and are bred “ to follow their owners’ orders“ but cats have not been. So sometimes cats appear aloof, but they have special relationships with their owners. She added that cats have evolved not to show their emotions in order to survive. One example is illness , which they tend to hide because “ in the wild, no one can rescue them and predators pay attention to such weak individual, “ she said. The researchers added that after 10, 000 years of living with humans, domestic cats have the ability to communicate with us, and, generally speaking, we seem to understand them. The study, which will be published in the July issue of Animal Cognition, comes just weeks after an expert in animal behavior claimed we will one day be able to talk to animals using mobile phone-sized gadgets. Professor Con Slobodchikoff, of Northern Arizona University, is developing technology that interprets the calls of the prairie dog and says the technology could eventually be used to interpret other animals. He also believes the technology could one day be fine-tuned to enable humans to talk back to animals and engage in conversation.

Societies all over the world name places in similar ways. Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of reference by people. Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name. Frequently it happens that a place has two names: One is named by the people and the other by the government. As in many areas, old habits died hard, and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost. Many roads and places in Singapore are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations. Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countries—in both the West and the East. Another way of naming places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who used to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after. The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named in former British bases. If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circus—obviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel. Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interesting example, “Base Basah“ means “wet rice“ in Malay. Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road“? The reason is simple. During the pioneering days, wet rice was laid out to dry along this road. A few roads in Singapore are named by their shapes. There is “Circular Road“ for one. Other roads may have part of their names to describe their shapes, like “Paya Lebar Crescent“. This road is called a crescent because it begins on the main road, makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.

阅读下面的案例，回答下面两小题。 2010年9月1日，赵某进入某镇初级中学七年级三班学习。2010年11月20日，上数学课时，赵某因不遵守课堂纪律与数学老师顶撞，数学老师将赵某交班主任处理，班主任又将赵某交学校党支部书记处理，党支部书记对赵某进行批评教育后，赵某被班主任送回家中。其后一连几天，赵某多次找学校，要求返回学校上学，而学校虽未明确表示不让赵某上学，但也未明确表示同意赵某立即返回学校上学，而是把要求赵某向数学老师认错作为其返校学习的一个前提条件。赵某认为与数学老师顶撞并非全部是自己的过错，双方因此产生分歧。此后赵某家长找到该县教委信访科反映情况。在与学校协商和县教委信访科协调一直无果的情况下，赵某及其家人将某镇初级中学告上了法庭。
