　　科学美国人60秒听力练习：雌性黑猩猩喜欢布娃娃

　　科学美国人60秒英文文本

　　近期研究表明，即使不用区分性别的手段，黑猩猩和人类儿童一样，有性别角色分类。卡伦.霍普金说。木棍和石头可能会敲碎骨头……除非是幼小的母猩猩。那样的情况下，母猩猩更可能轻轻抱着木棍，像抱着娃娃。这一发现刊登在《当代生物学》杂志上。

　　Recent research finds that chimps tend to fall into the same gender-specific roles as human children do, even without any gender-specific tools. Karen Hopkin reports

　　Sticks and stones may break some bones…unless you’re a young female chimp. In that case, you’re more likely to cradle your stick like a dollie. That finding appears in the journal Current Biology.

　　If you have kids, you’ve no doubt noticed that, generally speaking, girls like to play with dolls while boys gravitate toward swords and trains. Study after study has shown this to be true. But is it instinct? Parental influence? Or the result of some sort of preschool peer-pressure? One way to find out is to look to the animal kingdom, where there are no gender-specific playthings. Earlier studies of monkeys in captivity have shown that, given a choice, females do prefer dolls whereas males will reach for a truck. But what about how the animals play in the wild?

　　Scientists studying chimps in a national park in Uganda have found that all the youngsters like to play with sticks. They poke them into holes and just carry them around. But the female chimps also seem to act out nurturing them, holding the sticks close and bringing them into their nests at naptime. Males prefer to use the sticks to whack each other. Sound familiar?

　　—Karen Hopkin
