人教版高中英语必修1 Unitl friendship阅读能力训练I .阅读理解What do you usually do to comfort your friends when they are feeling sad or depressed ? You probably pat them on the back or shoulder, or maybe you give them a big, warm hug.We used to think that knowing when and how to comfort others was an ability that only humans scientists have discovered that apes（猩猩）have this ability, too, according to a study published in the Journal of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.Two researchers from Emory University in, Atlanta, US, went to an Ape Protection Centre in Congo to study bonobos（倭黑猩猩），which are closely related to humans.The researchers analyzed the bonobos' reactions after more than 370 cases of stressful situations, such as fights and losing temper, and found that some bonobos rushed to hug those that were screaming after being attacked, just like humans would have done.However, researchers noted that not all bonobos were capable of comforting the protection centre, many bonobos are orphans whose mothers were killed by were found to be more anxious, in times of tension and have greater difficulty controlling their own emotions, making them worse at reaching out to help friends in need.uOrphans, who have not had the benefit of a mother helping them handling their emotions, are much worse at comforting others, “ Professor Frans de WaaL one of the researchers, told The Telegraph, " Bonobos with moms were able to curb their negative emotional reactions more fore, they pay more attention to others.vThis pattern mirrors the way that human children have been found to who seem more capable of handling their own emotions-for example, the ones who can calm themselves down more quickly after upsetting experiencesare usually better at expressing their concerns for others.1.
