19、r a mountain lion or wolf and give a dangerous kick.By watching the ears of a horse,you can get clues to what its hearing.A horse can tum each ear in a differentdirection.For a wild horse,this trick is important for survival.The horse can hear something sneaking up behind itwhile also checking out a

20、 threatening noise in front.When a horse lets its ears down,its feeling safe and relaxed.If horses becomeisolated,they neigh,or“whinny,”calling for company.Theyre saying,“Where are you?Im overhere!”If a horse snorts(哼)while holding its head high and staring at something,its saying,“That looks danger

22、herds,with all members watching for danger.In a herd,only one horse is the leader,the“boss hoss”.The“boss hoss”is usually an older female.She watches for threats and teaches younger horseshow to behave.However,others may want her job.When that happens,she pins her ears back against her headand may e

26、oss”deal with her challengers?A.By warning or fighting.B.By watching for threats.C.By teaching younger horses how to behave.D.By relating to people.DAccording to Oxford Dictionaries,morality means:“Principles concerning the distinction between right andwrong or good and bad behavior.”Though morality

27、 is a rather subjective subject,there are some principles thatare universal across all cultures found by an Oxford University study:“help your family,help your group,returnfavors,be brave,obey superiors,divide resources fairly,and respect others property”.The fact that these moralsare found across 6

28、0 cultures from around the world demonstrates that morality,though subjective,is thecornerstone of keeping our societies together.Here are some reasons to be moral:without morality,a social life isalmost impossible to maintain;having a good reputation and having a clear conscience is psychologically

29、 healthy;and most philosophies regard unselfish and principled behavior as important.There is no doubt that without morals,a society cannot function effectively.A confused situation wouldappear,According to the Society of Morality,“We are social animals,and the actions we take-the things we do andth

30、e things we dont do-have consequences on our environments and on the others around us.As a result,weneed to be able to govern our behavior in the near term so as not to injure ourselves or our community in the longterm.This system of controlling our actions and our thoughts in order to operate in a

31、community is what we oftenrefer to as morality”.Therefore,we need a set of morals in order to operate within a social circle and a socialenvironment.Acting immoral usually results in being excluded from social activities or being avoided by a societybased on laws and cultural standards.Besides actin

32、g moral having a sociological need,it also has a psychologicalbasis.Most people are concerned to some extent about their reputation.According to PsyPost,“A lot of economicmodels of human behavior assume that people are only rational(理性的)when they narrowly pursue their ownself-interest,but history sh

33、ows us that people are also tremendously concerned with being and appearing moral”.So,the fear of ones reputation being damaged is often a strong motivator to be moral.And if someonehas beenimmoral,most people go out of their way to make sure no one finds out,or to correct the behavior in order to n

34、otbe caught.This goes in line with conscience as well.People generally feel in a better psychological state if they feelthat their conscience is clean.A dirty conscience can result in a lack of sleep,anxiety,internal stress,and evenillness.On the side of philosophy,the study of ethics(伦理)comes into

35、play.Most philosophers agree that oneshould rationally choose a set of standards of behavior in order to function.Though there is moral relativism,there are universal anthropological(人类学的)morals,as mentioned in the introduction.By the nature of oursocieties and cultures,we choose what we believe is

36、right and wrong.But surprising,this rational behavior comesto a general agreement on morals.So,there is a fine line between moral relativism and moral absolutism.But themain thing to take away from this discussion is that philosophers generally believe that each individual has theright to rationally

37、 come up with a set of ethics to live by,and that it is healthy to do so.12.The author discusses morality(paragraph 1)in order to _.A.explain the relationship between morality and cultureB.describe the moral rules found all around the worldC.contrast the distinction between right and wrongD.introduc
