9．On August 16，1977，Elvis Presley saved me．
The previous afternoon，I played with my six-year-old peers in Heather Peters'backyard．I was enjoying my cake，when Heather asked me where my sleeping bag was．Only then did I know this party was a sleepover．The word"sleep-over"to a six-year-old bed-wetter is like what"cancer"means to an adult．But what if I told them I was a bed-wetter？At least with cancer，people gather at your bedside instead of running from it．
I thought of a way to escape．I would explain that I needed my mother's permission to spend the nights．But as I called my Mom，Heather stood beside me to listen．She granted permission!Then I would be sleeping in the same living room as the other girls．I didn't bring my own pajamas （睡衣），so Mrs．Peters offered me Heather's pajamas．
As the other girls drifted into their sweet dreams，I tried to stay awake．"Do I need to go again？I'll stay up to go one more time…"．Of course，I finally fell asleep．
The next morning，I was the first to wake up．I was warm!I lay in panic for what seemed like hours before the other girls started to wake up．I did the only thing I could do-I pretended that the bed-wetting didn't happen．I got up，took off Heather's pajamas and changed into my clothes like the other girls．
Mrs．Peters walked into the room，and before she could say anything，she stepped right onto the pile of my wet pajamas．My heart stopped as I watched her face burn red．"WHO DID THIS？"She screamed，with a look so frightening．Should I answer？And that was when it happened-Mr．Peters came in and grabbed his wife，‘‘Elvis Presley died!"
The news of the King's death overtook Mrs．Peters，and I，was spared．I got home without the other girl knowing what had happened．
32．The author had to spend the night at Peters'becauseD．
A．she enjoyed her cake there
B．the famous singer Elvis Presley died that night

B．a(chǎn) fan of Elvis Presley
C．a(chǎn) woman for perfection
D．a(chǎn) woman who hated to wash pajamas

6．Chimps（黑猩猩） will cooperate in certain ways，like gathering in war parties to protect their territory．But beyond the minimum requirements as social beings，they have little instinct （本能） to help one another．Chimps in the wild seek food for themselves．Even chimp mothers regularly decline to share food with their children，who are able from a young age to gather their own food．
    In the laboratory，chimps don't naturally share food either．If a chimp is put in a cage where he can pull in one plate of food for himself or，with no great effort，a plate that also provides food for a neighbor to the next cage，he will pull at random---he just doesn't care whether his neighbor gets fed or not．Chimps are truly selfish．
Human children，on the other hand are extremely cooperative．From the earliest ages，they decide to help others，to share information and to participate in achieving common goals．The psychologist Michael Tomasello has studied this cooperativeness in a series of experiments with very young children．He finds that if babies aged 18 months see an worried adult with hands full trying to open a door，almost all will immediately try to help．
There are several reasons to believe that the urges to help，inform and share are not taught，but naturally possessed in young children．One is that these instincts appear at a very young age before most parents have started to train children to behave socially．Another is that the helping behaviors are not improved if the children are rewarded．A third reason is that social intelligence develops in children before their general cognitive（認知的）skills，at least when compared with chimps．In tests c onducted by Tomasello，the children did no better than the chimps on the physical world tests，but were considerably better at understanding the social world．
The core of what children's minds have and chimps'don't is what Tomasello calls shared
intentionality．Part of this ability is that they can infer what others know or are thinking．But beyond that，even very young children want to be part of a shared purpose．They actively seek to be part of a"we"，a group that intends to work toward a shared goal．
58．What can we learn from the experiment with chimps？C
A．Chimps like to take in their neighbors'food．
B．Chimps tend to provide food for their children．
C．Chimps seldom care about others'interests．
D．Chimps naturally share food with each other．
59．Michael Tomasello's tests on young children indicate that theyD．
A．know how to offer help to adults
B．know the world better than chimps
C．trust adults with their hands full
D．have the instinct to help others
60．The passage is mainly aboutA．
A．cooperation as a distinctive human nature
B．the development of intelligence in children
C．the helping behaviors of young children
D．ways to train children's shared intentionality．
