23、ce between people who pose（造成）a threat and those who do not. In Kenya, researchers found that elephants react differently to clothing worn by men of the Maasai and Kamba ethnic groups.

24、er to elephants.In an experiment conducted by animal scientists, elephants were first presented with clean clothing or clothing that had been worn for five days by either a Maasai or a Kamba man.

25、aster and took longer to relax than when they detected the smell of either clothing worn by Kamba men or clothing that had not been worn at all.Garment colour also plays a role, though in a different way. In the same study, when the elephants saw red clothing not worn before, they reacted aggressive
26、ly toward the red clothing.The researchers believe that the elephants emotional reactions are due to their different interpretations of the smells and the sights. Smelling a potential danger means that a threat is nearby and the best thing to do is run away and hide. Seeing a potential threat withou

Some parents can understand that wish, but it must first be recognized that the copy would be a new b
39、aby and not the lost child. Here lies the difficulty, for the sad parents are seeking not a new baby but a return of the dead one. Since the original would be fondly remembered as having particular talents and interests, would not the parents expect the copy to be the same? It is possible, however,
