But how do they do it?An international team of scientists, including researchers at the University of Edinburgh, UK, has recently come up with an explanation. According to the findings, ants use visual （视觉的） memories of their environments and the sun's position to find their way home. And they can even do it while traveling backwards.The researchers studied a group of desert ants in Seville, Spain. The study's purpose was to find out how ants navigate when they carry pieces of food of different sizes.To make it work, the scientists first trained the ants to follow a particular path back home, including a challenging 90-degree turn. Then the ants were given either a small or a large piece of food to test their navigational skills.Ants with small pieces of food walked forward and cleared the 90-degree turn just fine. However, those with larger pieces sometimes had to turn backwards to drag them. Generally, these ants would set off in the correct direction. But if they stayed too long in the backward position, they would miss the correct turn to reach the nest.Interestingly, not of the backward-walking ants were that stubborn. Some would drop the food occasionally （彳禺尔）to check their surroundings . So after turning back to pick up their food, the ants would find themselves back on the right path.Barbara Webb, a professor from the University of Edinburgh's School of Informatics, said the findings could help people make smarter robots in the future."Understanding their behavior gives us new insights into brain function and has inspired us to build robot systems that mimic （模仿）their functions" , she told the BBC.Scientists have been able to copy the neural （神经的）network in the ant's brain. The hope is to invent robots that can explore by themselves in natural areas such as forests.12 .According to the new study, ants.A. mainly depend on local landmarks to guide them homecannot navigate well when they are carrying food with themC . prefer to travel in groups to avoid being lost on long-distance journeysD. use the sun's position and visual memories of their suiToundings to navigate13. Why do the researchers study desert ants?A. To find out how ants find their way home.B. To find out how ants carry pieces of food.C. To study whether ants travel backward.D. To study whether ants use sense of sight.14. What inspiration does the researchers get from their findings?A. Robots can be used to explore the forest.B. Ants' neural network can be moved into robots.C. Findings help understand humans' brain function betterPeople can make cleverer robots imitating ants* brain functions.15.What is the best title of the passage?A. Ants' navigational skills and their possible applicationB. Ants' traveling habits and brain functionsC. How ants carry food pieces of various sizesD. How scientists test ants' skills.第二节（共5小题；每题2分，总分值10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。EnglandEngland is the biggest of the four countries in the United Kingdom.
