The elderly residents (居民) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to
stop them feeling lonely.
The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve
elderly people's wellbeing. It is also being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious
illness of the mind. Staff in care homes have reported a reduction in the use of medicine where
hens are in use.
Among those taking part in the project is 80yearold Ruth Xavier. She said：“I used to keep
hens when I was younger and had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to
school.”
I like the project a lot. I am down there in my wheelchair in the morning letting the hens out
and down there again at night to see they've gone to bed.”
“It's good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the
hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I'm enjoying the creative activities, and it
feels great to have done something useful.”
There are now 700 elderly people looking after hens in 20 care homes in the North East, and
the charity has been given financial support to roll it out countrywide.
Wendy Wilson, extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark__on theproject, said：“Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are
looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.”
Lynn Lewis, director of Notting Hill Pathways，said：“We are happy to be taking part in

activities.”

2022·全国甲卷 说明文 246词 ★★☆☆☆
Goffin's cockatoos, a kind of small parrot native to Australasia, have been shown to have
similar shaperecognition abilities to a human twoyearold. Though not known to use tools in the
wild, the birds have proved skilful at tool use while kept in the cage. In a recent experiment,
cockatoos were presented with a box with a nut inside it. The clear front of the box had a
“keyhole” in a geometric shape, and the birds were given five differently shaped “keys” to choose
from. Inserting the correct “key” would let out the nut.
In humans, babies can put a round shape in a round hole from around one year of age, but it
will be another year before they are able to do the same with less symmetrical (对称的) shapes.
This ability to recognize that a shape will need to be turned in a specific direction before it will fit
is called an “allocentric frame of reference”. In the experiment, Goffin's cockatoos were able to
select the right tool for the job, in most cases, by visual recognition alone. Where trialanderror was
used, the cockatoos did better than monkeys in similar tests. This indicates that Goffin's cockatoos
do indeed possess an allocentric frame of reference when moving objects in space, similar to two-
yearold babies.
The next step, according to the researchers, is to try and work out whether the cockatoos rely
entirely on visual clues (线索), or also use a sense of touch in making their shape selections.
5．How did the cockatoos get the nut from the box in the experiment?
A．By following instructions.
B．By using a tool.C．By turning the box around.
D．By removing the lid.
6．Which task can human oneyearolds most likely complete according to the text?
A．Using a key to unlock a door.
B．Telling parrots from other birds.
C．Putting a ball into a round hole.
D．Grouping toys of different shapes.
7．What does the followup test aim to find out about the cockatoos?
A．How far they are able to see.
B．How they track moving objects.
C．Whether they are smarter than monkeys.
D．Whether they use a sense of touch in the test.
8．Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Cockatoos：Quick Error Checkers
B．Cockatoos：Independent Learners
C．Cockatoos：Clever SignalReaders
D．Cockatoos：Skilful ShapeSorters
