25、What do you think of black cats?Are they unluckier than cats of other colors?Many people in Western countries think so.Scientists at the University of California,Berkeley (UC Berkeley),did a study on cat colors and people's understandings of cat personalities.
The study found that people do judge(判断) cat personalities by color.Scientists did a survey on the Internet.There were 49statements (描述) matching five cat colorings with 10personalities.People think orange and bi-colored (双色的) cats are friendly,tri-colored (三色的) cats are not generous,and white cats are calm,lazy and shy.As for black cats,people think they don't have special personalities.
But why do so many people dislike keeping black cats as pets?People think black cats have less special personalities,which might be because of their bad reputation (口碑).They think black cats may bring bad luck,especially at Halloween.Movies and television shows also make people believe that.
Although people have these ideas,UC Berkeley scientists give another reason:people don't think black cats are pretty enough.After all,nothing can show black cats are unluckier than other cats."You can't judge a cat by its color,because it's the personality of the cat,not the color,that will let you know if the cat is right for you,"Cathy Marden,a scientist said.

26、 “The delivery(递送) driver has your food and is on his way.” This is a message you might receive after placing a takeout order. But in the near future, a self-driving car may bring food to your door instead of a human driver. Baidu and Meituan are now working together to use self-driving technology to deliver food. They will be experimenting with this in the Xiongan New Area, Beijing Evening News reported.
The self-driving cars will mainly be used to send group orders, as opposed to the single orders that are usually handled by delivery drivers. For example, if a company orders food for its staff, a self-driving car will bring the entire order to the company. Sina Tech noted that using self-driving cars will be a revolution (革命) in the food delivery industry, as it will eliminate (消除) the cost of labor (劳动力).
Online food delivery services have developed rapidly in China. Almost 300 million users have used online services to order food, the Xinhua News Agency reported. In 2016, Meituan Waimai ranked highest among all food delivery companies according to total orders, with Chinese food delivery company Ele.me ranking second.
Self-driving delivery services will promote (促进) the development of the industry. But that doesn’t mean that delivery drivers will lose their jobs. There are still some problems to work out, according to internet startup service provider 36kr. For example, self-driving cars can drive smoothly on cement roads, but have problems driving on dirt roads. There are other safety-related problems that must also be solved before self-driving cars can be used .
【1】_____ are working together on self-driving delivery services.
A.Baidu and Meituan B.Baidu and Ele.me
C.Meituan and Sina Tech D.Meituan and Ele.me

【3】______ got the first place of all food delivery companies in 2016.
A.Ele.me B.Baidu C.Sina D.Meituan Waimai
