Fr centuries, peple thught that fish did nt feel pain r emtins. Nw research has shwn that fish nt nly have feelings but can als sense thers’ mds.
When a human understands and shares the feelings f anther persn, this is called empathy (共情). Scientists have fund that a chemical in the brain called xytcin (催产素) is invlved in ur ability t cnnect with thers.
A team f researchers tested zebra fish with a series f experiments. First, they placed the fish in tw separate cntainers and gave ne grup a material that caused them t act fearful—either freezing r swimming irregularly. Even thugh the fish in the nearby cntainer had nt tuched the material, they als began t freeze in fear. “They respnd t ther individuals being frightened… just like us,” said Ibukun, a c-authr f the study. The scientists tried the experiment again with the changed fish whse brains wuld nt prduce xytcin. These fish were much less likely t act anxius when they saw ther fish shwing fear. If researchers gave them an injectin (注射) f xytcin, their ability t empathize returned.
Finally, researchers played vides f fearful fish n ne side f the cntainer and relaxed fish n the ther side. Nrmal fish mved clser t the side that shwed the fearful fish, which might have been an attempt t cmfrt them. The changed fish did nt mve tward either side.
Lking at the nrmal fish’s brains, researchers saw activity in an area similar t the ne humans and ther mammals (哺乳动物) use when empathizing with thers. This culd mean that the ability t have empathy develped mre than 350 millin years ag, when fish and mammals shared a cmmn ancestr.
28. Hw many experiments did the researchers d?
A. One.B. Tw.C. Three.D. Fur.
29. Hw did the researchers get the result f the experiments?
A. By mdeling.B. By cmparisn.
C. By describing.D. By investigatin.
30. Which f the fllwing is crrect accrding t the passage?
A. Fish and humans use the same brain area when empathizing.
B. Fish always ignre thers’ emtins.
C. It wasn’t lng befre fish had empathy.
D. Oxytcin plays a key rle in empathy.
31. What is the purpse f the research?
A. T test whether fish and mammals share a cmmn ancestr.
B. T test whether fish have the ability t empathize.
C. T test whether fish can cmfrt ther fish.
D. T test whether fish can prduce xytcin.

The final gal f the missin is nt nly t shw new technlgies and gather mre data n Mars, but als t pave the way fr “searching missins” that can explre terrain that is inaccessible t rvers.
“This really sets the stage fr us t intrduce an aerial dimensin (空中维度) t ur explratin f planets in the slar system in the future,” said Thmas Zurbuchen, assciate administratr fr NASA’s Science Missin Directrate.
32. What can we learn frm the text?
