2、Can animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a lot of simple jobs that are now being done by human beings. They point out that at a circus(馬戲團(tuán)), for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing a lot of things. If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal something to eat as a reward. The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do quite a few simple jobs if they know they would get a reward for doing them.
Of course, as
we know, dogs can be used to guard a house as soldiers in both old and modern
times. Geese have been used to give warning by making a lot of noise when an
enemy comes near. But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories.
In Russia, for example, pigeons, which are birds with good eyesight, are being
used to watch out fault(毛。﹊n small steel balls. When the pigeon sees a ball which looks
different from others, it touches a switch. This turns on a light to warn the
workers in the factory. At the same time, a few seeds are given to the pigeon
as a reward. It takes three or five weeks to train a pigeon to do this and one
pigeon can inspect three thousand balls an hour.
Apes(猿)have been used in America in
helping to make cars and scientists believe that these large monkeys may one
day gather crops and even drive tractors on the farm.
