Sheep, camels, goats and other hoofed (有蹄类) animals are better at figuring out solutions to puzzles when they are less integrated into social groups.

These individuals might be forced to find food, shelter and other needs on their own without group help, thus fuelling innovation, says Federica Amici at the University of Lipzig in Germany.

“If you’re not well integrated into your social group, you can’t count on friends providing you with support or sharing resources with you, and you have to count on yourself much more,” says Amici. “It’s interesting that problem-solving skills appear to be quite an alternative social skills.”

Amici and her colleagues wanted to consider how social groups affect individual animals’ capacity for innovation. They decided to concentrate on hoofed animals which live in widely varied social group structures and include both wild and domesticated species.

The team worked with 1111 hoofed animals from 13 species, all living in zoos in Spain, France and Germany. The researchers observed each animal every 15 minutes for several days to determine how well it was integrated into the group. Then, the team placed a set of covered cups, filled with whatever food each species particularly liked, in the enclosure (围场) with the animals. Video cameras recorded their behaviour without humans present.

Regardless of species, it was the less socially integrated individuals that were most successful at figuring out how to open the lids to get to the food inside the cups. It is possible that because these animals get left out of the group, they are motivated to find other ways to get food and other resources on their own, says Amici. Another possibility is that these individuals aren’t necessarily rejected by their social group. Rather, they choose to be alone because they figure things out on their own.

Whether the findings apply to humans and other species is unclear. “It’s tempting to see a parallel with humans,” says Amici. “Individuals with high problem-solving skills may not be the most socially skilled people.”

1．What can we learn about the less integrated hoofed animals?

A．They can find shelter effortlessly.	B．They possess alternative social skills.
C．They rely on friends to solve problems.	D．They have to find resources independently.

2．How did the researchers assess the social integration of hoofed animals?

A．By measuring their intelligence.	B．By monitoring their interactions.
C．By analyzing their food preferences.	D．By observing their hunting strategies.

3．What does the underlined phrase “see a parallel with” in the last paragraph probably mean?

A．Keep an eye on.	B．Lend a hand to.
C．Discover a similarity with.	D．Form a partnership with.

4．What is a suitable title for this text?

A．The Puzzle-Solving Abilities of Hoofed Animals

B．The Innovation of Social Skills in Hoofed Animals

C．Solving Puzzles: The Key to Social Success in Hoofed Animals

D．The Unsociable Advantage: Problem Solving in Hoofed Animals

For most graduating students, the college-admission season, usually in July and August, is a nervous time that is often described as a life-changing moment.

An anxious 18-year-old Peng Lanxi got his admission letter from Hunan University of Science and Technology on July 26, bringing his dream closer-making prosthetic limbs (假肢) more advanced and accessible to people like him. His mother Wang Chunmei couldn’t hold back her tears because she knew how her son had overcome the difficulties.

Peng Lanxi lost his legs in a car accident in 2005, when he was a baby. Having learned to walk using just his hands, he enjoys life as much as the teenagers around him. On his wheelchair, he plays basketball and badminton. Once a week, he goes for a 40-minute swim, and his best time for 100 meters is one minute and 15 seconds.

“I believe that obstacles (障碍) are there to be conquered. Someone says that life is like a mirror, and we get the best results when we smile at it,” Peng Lanxi says.

His story has gone viral (在网上快速传播的) on social media platform Sina Weibo, which has been viewed more than 19 million times and he won admiration from its users for his courage, determination and hard work. A user named Shuangpi comments that Peng lost his legs, but he doesn’t let that get in his way.

The official account of Hunan University of Science and Technology on the platform has even commented, “Welcome Peng to the university.” Lu Ming says that the school will help Peng to pursue his dream—to be a prosthetics engineer, a career that will change lives. Peng is not alone, as authorities have improved the presence of disabled people on mainstream campuses in recent years. 14,559 students facing physical challenges entered college last year. From 2016 to 2020, about 57,500 special needs students were admitted into universities, a more than 50 percent increase compared with the 2011-2015 period.

C．Her son succeeded after too much difficulty.	D．She hoped to put on prosthetic limbs for her son.

2．What can we know about Peng Lanxi from the third paragraph?

A．His bitter childhood.	B．His game experience.
C．His positive attitude to life.	D．His preference for various sports.

3．What caused Peng Lanxi to be popular?

A．His mother.

B．His talents.

C．His hard work.

D．Shuangpi’s comment.

4．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A．Lu Ming was once in charge of admission.

B．Prosthetics engineers can find jobs much easier.

C．Disabled people at universities are looked down on.

D．Being admitted into the university will contribute to Peng Lanxi’s future.
