It’s a common belief that fish can’t remember anything for longer than seven seconds. It may seem sad to think that every moment in their lives would be like seeing the world for the first time. But don’ t be so quick to feel sorry for them. A new study has found that fish have much better memories than we used to think.
In the study, researchers from Mac Ewan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids to go to a certain area of their tank to get food. They took the fish out and then waited for 12 days before putting them back in the tank again. 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. But there was no clear evidence until the latest findings.
Just as a good memory can make our lives easier, it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to survive in the wild, “If fish are able to remember that a certain area contains (容纳) 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.
So next time you are watching your pet fish from outside the tank, perhaps you should feel close to them——they may remember who you are.
56. We often feel sorry for fish because _______.
A. they have good memories B. they can only remember things for a short time
C. they are often used for research D. every moment in their lives is old
57. Why did the researchers carry out the research
A. To know if fish can find food easily.
B. To find out if fish have better memories.
C. To tell us fish can live for days without water.
D. To show fish can live long without eating things.
58. What does the underlined word “tank” in Paragraph 2 mean
A. A kind of fish food B. A kind of hiding place
C. Something used to keep food D. A container for keeping fish
59. Which is TRUE according to Trevor Hamilton
A. Fish know where to get food.
B. It’s easy for fish to live in the wild.
C. A good memory can make fish safer in the wild.
D. Fish are always in danger when they look for food.
60. What’s the purpose of this passage
A. To tell people that fish can’t remember anything
B. To show a new study about fish
C. To explain why good memory is good for fish
D. To tell people fish have much better memories than they used to think

A Good Place to Travel!
Travel is a walking lesson! Sanya is a good place to travel to. Sanya is a beautiful city in Hainan. Last year, I went to there with my family by plane. We stayed there for five days. It was warm there. We saw the sea there and swam in the sea. We also visited famous “Tianya Haijiao” in Hainan. We also tasted a lot of special delicious food, such as Wenchang Chicken.
Travelling is a good way to relax ourselves.We can learn about the culture of different regions. Besides, we can make many friends. If you have time, go on a pleasant trip! I am sure you will get a lot out of it.
