we have come to think of as intelligent, such as chimpanzees and dolphins, all have large brains. And it’s long been assumed that the smallest brains simply don’t have the capacity to support complex mental process. But what if we are wrong and they actually do?
炊字组词“Spiders are one ca where this general idea

‘cognitive’, as oppod to 13 respons, are fairly common among spiders.” Jumping spiders are the undisputed champions
of cognition among spiders. The jumping spiders shown to have the
most impressive 14 belong to the genus(属)Portia, found in Africa, Asia and Australia. The spiders prefer to hunt
other spiders and have 15 tailored to each species they prey on.
When hunting another group of jumping spiders called Euryattus, Portia employs a clever trick. Euryattus females build nests in curled-up dead leaves 16 in air by silk attached to rocks or vegetation. Courting males crawl down the silk ropes, stand on top of the nest, and shake it in a specific way.
The 17 draws the female out of the nest.

One of the suppod benefits of being in a long-term relationship is the guarantee that tho involved will not be forced to spend time alone.
Advocates of marriage argue that living as a couple or as a
family helps to prevent situations of loneliness and isolation, which can 21 lead to anxiety, depression, and other health problems, especially in old age.
This psychological cour, however, is in 22 with many spiritual leaders, philosophers, and artists who prai the advantages of spending time alone. 23 , some of the most celebrated thinkers and creators -- from Wordsworth (1770-1850, English poet) to Einstein and others - praid the value of spending time away from others.
如何学好文言文What if, instead of focusing on the disadvantages of being lonely and by onelf, the focus was 24 the benefits of solitude?
Solitude, like loneliness, implies spending time alone. Yet, in direct contrast to loneliness, solitude can often be a positive state of being that should be 25 rather than avoided.

Instead of focusing on the negative experiences of being alone,
the study of solitude as a 26 reveals that a
different approach to this reality can promote freedom, creativity, intimacy, spirituality, and therefore happiness.
27 , solitude brings rewards to tho who value it. Singles, then, particularly singles who appreciate the value of spending time alone, can benefit greatly from the relationship circumstances that facilitate solitude that would be more elusive (不常见的) for individuals living with their partners.
In fact, boosting the happiness that singles can gain from
solitude is the idea that tho who are single, or plainly single at heart, are more likely to enjoy and benefit from solitude. Single at heart 28 a type of individual who personality and nature mean that they live the happiest, fullest, and most authentic lives when they are not in relationships. People who are single at heart thrive the most from solitude and lf-sufficiency and are also more likely to reap 29 rewards from spending time by themlves.
Some studies even point out how being single
and 30 can be beneficial. For example,
in 31 psychological resources available to married
and never-married adults, an analysis indicates no significant differences in mental health between the study groups.
32 , the study suggests that never-married individuals achieve a higher level of personal mastery than their married counterparts, particularly tho above the age of
forty. 33 , tho who had never married had clearer personal visions and goals, exhibited higher levels of patience, and were more prepared to view reality 34 .
There is even evidence to suggest that singles, who are more accustomed to benefiting from time spent alone, are capable of being their own sources of comfort and curity, though further rearch is
required in order to establish the 35 behind this phenomenon.
