35、iversity of Roehampton and the University of Sydney has found. The research which involved kangaroos, marsupials(有袋类动 物)that were never domesticated, at three locations across Australia, revealed that kangaroos stared at a human when trying to access food which had been put in a closed box. The kang
36、aroos used eye-contact to communicate with the human instead of attempting to open the box themselves, a behaviour that is usually expected for domesticated animals.Ten out of 11 kangaroos tested actively looked at the person who had put the food in a box to get it. Nine of the 11 kangaroos addition
37、ally showed eye-contact between the box and the person present, a strong form of communication where they looked between the box and human.The research builds on previous work in the field which has looked at the communication of domesticated animals, such as dogs and goats, and whether intentional
38、communication in animals is a result of domestication. Lead author Dr. Alan McElligott previously led a study which found goats can understand human signals, including pointing, to gather information about their environment.

44、lectric vehicle, may be a thing of the past, according to a team of Penn State engineers who are looking at lithium iron phosphate batteries(磷酸铁锂电干也)that have a range of 250 miles with the ability to charge in 10 minutes.We developed a pretty clever battery for mass-market electric vehicles/ said Ch
45、ao-Yang Wang, a professor and director of the Electrochemical Engine Center at Penn State. There is no more range anxiety and this battery is affordable.n The researchers also say that the battery should be good for 2 million miles in its lifetime.They report today in Nature Energy that the key to l
46、ong-life and rapid recharging is the battery 9s ability to quickly heat up to 140 degrees Fahrenheit, for charge and discharge, and then cool down when the battery is not working.The battery uses a self-heating approach previously developed in Wangs center. The self-heating battery uses a thin nicke
47、l foil(馍箔)with one end attached to the negative terminal and the other extending outside the cell to create a third terminal. Once electrons flow, it rapidly heats up the nickel foil through resistance heating and warms the inside of the battery. Once the batterys inner temperature is 140 degrees Fa
48、hrenheit, the switch opens and the battery is ready for rapid charge or discharge.“This battery has reduced weight, volume and cost/* said Wang. I am very happy that we finally found a battery that will benefit the mainstream consumer mass market.According to Wang, these smaller batteries can produce a large amount of power upon heating-40 kilowatt hours and 300 kilowatts of power. An electric vehicle with this battery could go from zero to 60 miles per hour in 3 seconds and would drive like a Porsche, he said. This is how we are going to change the environ
