The elephant and the fly

　　A disciple(信徒), who was disturbed by the fact that his mind was in constant unrest, asked his teacher, “Why are most people's minds restless? What can one do to still the mind? ” The teacher looked at the disciple, smiled and told him a story：

　　An elephant was standing and picking leaves from a tree．A small fly came，flying and buzzing(嗡嗡叫)near his ear．The elephant waved it away with his long ears．Then the fly came again, and the elephant waved it away once more．

　　This was repeated several times．Then the elephant asked the fly, “Why are you so restless and noisy? Why can't you stay for a while in one place? ”

　　The fly answered, “I am attracted to whatever I see, hear or smell．My five senses pull me constantly in all directions and I cannot resist them．What is your secret? How can you stay so calm and still? ”

　　The elephant stopped eating and said, “My five senses do not rule my attention．Whatever I do, I get immersed in it．Now that I am eating, I am completely absorbed in eating．In this way I can enjoy my food and chew it better．I rule and control my attention, and not the other way around．”

　　Upon hearing these words, a smile appeared on the disciple's face, “I understand! If my five senses are in control of my mind and attention, then my mind is in constant unrest．If I am in charge of my five senses and attention, then my mind becomes calm．”

They may be small and not able to speak, but babies are proving their amazing cleverness. Scientists began finding infants’ skills are more than they are supposed to be.
_________
Speaking of music, babies can’t seem to resist it. Not only are their ears turned to the beats, babies can actually dance to the music.
To test babies’ dancing ability, the researchers played recordings of classical music, rhythmic beats and speech to infants, and recorded the results. They also invited professional dancers to analyze how well the babies matched their movements to the music. The babies moved their arms, hands, legs feet and heads in response to the music, much more than to the speech. The finding suggests this dancing ability is innate(與生俱來的) in humans, though the researchers aren’t sure why it becomes weaker later in their life.
Learning Quickly while Sleeping
Babies can learn even while asleep, according to a 2011 study. In experiments with 26 sleeping infants, each just 1 to 2 days old, scientists played a musical tone followed by a puff of air to their eyes 200 times over the course of a half-hour. 124 electrodes(電極) stuck on the head and face of each baby recorded brain activity during the experiments. The babies rapidly learned to foretell a puff of air upon hearing the tone, showing a four-time increase on average in the chances of tightening their eyelids in response to the sound by the end of the experiments.
As newborns spend most of their time asleep, this newfound ability might be crucial to rapidly adapting to the world around them and help to ensure their survival, researchers said.
Judging Characters Well
Judging another person helpful or harmful is crucial when choosing friends. And that ability starts early. Kiley Hamlin of Yale University showed both 6-and 10-month-olds a puppet(木偶) show, in which one character helped another climb a hill. In another scene a third character pushed the climber down. The little ones then got to choose which character they preferred. For both age groups, most babies chose the helper character. This character-judging ability could be baby’s first step in the formation of morals, Hamlin thought.
【小題1】Which of the following subtitles can fill in the underlined blank?

A．Dancing to Music
B．Babies’ Amazing Abilities
C．Learning to Dance Quickly
D．Born to Dance
【小題2】The underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refers to______.
A．the finding
B．the dancing ability
C．the response
D．the baby
【小題3】The experiment with 26 sleeping infants prove that_______.
A．babies can learn even while asleep
B．babies can respond to the world around them
C．babies can tighten their eyelids in response to the sound
D．babies can communicate with others while asleep
【小題4】In the last experiment, most babies chose the helper character, showing that________.
A．babies can judge a person helpful or harmful
B．babies love to see a puppet show
C．babies were born to help others
D．babes have learned to help others
