Study: Cats not bothered if owners are treated badly 研究发现：猫根本懒得理会主人是否被欺负 A study in Japan suggests there may be something after all to the old stereotype that pet cats are generally aloof and indifferent toward their owners, while dogs are fiercely protective and loyal. Researchers from Kyoto University and the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science wanted to understand how cats behave when their owners are being given a hard time. The same experiments using dogs seven years ago were referenced to gauge behavioral differences between the two species. Team members concluded that cats do not seem to care how people treat their owners, while dogs keep their distance from those who give their owners the cold shoulder. 日本的一份研究表明，宠物猫通常对其主人疏远又冷淡，而狗则具有强烈的保护性和忠诚度，这种古老的刻板印象可能毕竟是有的。京都大学与日本学术振兴会的研究人员想要了解猫在其主人陷于困境时的行为反应，7年前对狗做过的相同实验被当作参考，以衡量这两种生物之间的行为差异。研究团队得出的结论是，猫看似并不关心人们如何对待其主人，狗则会与那些冷落怠慢其主人的人保持距离。 重点词汇 1. stereotype 英?[? steri?ta?p]??美?[? steri?ta?p] n.?模式化观念（或形象）；老一套；刻板印象 2. gauge 英?[ɡe?d?] ?美?[ɡe?d?] vt.?（用仪器）测量；判定，判断（尤指人的感情或态度） 听双语新闻-填词 Study: Cats not bothered if owners are treated badly A study in Japan suggests there may be something after all to the old stereotype that pet cats are generally aloof and indifferent toward their owners, while dogs are fiercely protective and loyal.
