It’s a popular belief that fish can’t remember anything for longer than seven seconds.
It may seem sad to think that they don’t remember what they’ve eaten or where they’ve been, and they don’t know you or any of their friends—every moment in their life would be like seeing the world for the first time.
But don’t be so quick to feel sorry for them. A recent study has found that fish have much better memories than we used to think. In fact, certain kinds of fish can even remember events from as long as 12 days ago, BBC reported.
In the study, researchers from MacEwan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids (丽鱼科鱼) to go to a certain area of their tank (鱼缸) to get food. They then waited for 12 days before putting them back in the tank again.
This suggested that they could remember their past experiences. Researchers used computer software to watch the fish’s movements. They found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food.
In fact, scientists had been thinking for a long time that African cichlids might have a good memory. An earlier study showed that they behaved aggressively in front of certain fish, perhaps because they remembered their past fights. But until the latest findings, there was no clear evidence (证据).
Just as a good memory can make our life easier, it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to live on in the wild.
“If fish are able to remember that a certain area has safe food, they will be able to go back to that area without putting their lives in danger.” lead researcher Trevor Hamilton told Live Science.
【1】A popular belief is mentioned at the beginning of the article to ________.
A.explain why fish have a bad memory
B.guide readers to the topic of the article
C.show fish can remember their neighbors
D.introduce how fish improve their memory
【2】According to the study at MacEwan University, fish ________.
A.remember what they’ve eaten B.like staying in the same tank
C.are smarter than we thought D.can learn something from man
【3】The underlined word “aggressively” in Paragraph 6 might mean ________ in Chinese.
A.友好地 B.得体地 C.攻击性地 D.礼貌地
【4】What Trevor Hamilton said in the last paragraph tells us it’s ________.
A.important for fish to have a good memory
B.easy for fish to find a place with safe food
C.necessary for fish to remember their home
D.dangerous for fish to fight for their friends

After weeks of space travel, the Chang’e 5 lunar probe (月球探测器) came home on December 17, 2020. It landed in Siziwang banner in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region.

After arriving in Canada, we packed our 【5】 (工具)into small boats and set off.
