问题     Many dog owners regard their furry friends as their children, and talk to them【C1】______
    Now, a new study reports that dogs, like infants, are able to study minor【C2】______in human communication and【C3】______interpret intent.
    Researchers from Hungary【C4】______the study in the journal Current Biology.
    They presented dogs【C5】______two videos. In the first, a woman says, "Hi, dog," while looking【C6】______at the camera. The woman then turns her head toward a container.
    The dog follows her【C7】______
    However, when the woman is looking down,【C8】______at the camera, as she says, "Hi, dog," the dog does not follow her【C9】______gaze.
    Dogs pick up on the【C10】______difference in the woman’s behavior in the two situations, said Adam Miklosi, a【C11】______biologist at Eotvos Lorand University in Budapest and one of the study’s authors.
    The study shows that dogs can【C12】______human behavior, he said, and understand when they are being【C13】______
    Other studies have shown that infants have the same【C14】______to interpret an adult’s intent.
    "Dogs are【C15】______similar to a 6-month-old, to a 1-year-old," Dr. Miklosi said, "though we don’t really know how the dog mind is dealing【C16】______the problem, and it’s probably different from an infant."
    Dogs presumably gained this ability【C17】______generations of domestication.
    "Being in a human family gives the dogs the ability to interact in a【C18】______way," Dr. Miklosi said. "You can really treat your dog as a sort of infant,【C19】______you wouldn’t really do【C20】______a goat or another domesticated animal." [br] 【C15】
选项 A、functionally
B、intuitively
C、linguistically
D、cognitively
答案 A
解析 副词辨析题。根据“though we don’t really know how the dog mind is dealing with the problem”可知研究者认为狗和婴儿在行为功能(functional)上是相似的，但却不了解狗的大脑是如何处理这类问题的，因此不可能在认知能力(cognitive)方面有相似性。
