2
Why is it that when dogs drink,
3
water seems to go everywhere?
4
But when cats drink, the water is usually contained.
5
Researchers at Virginia Tech University in Blacksburg,
6
Virginia, have been studying why this happens.
7
They say the mouths of cats and dogs are structured almost the same way.
8
They found that cats and dogs do not have a full set of cheeks.
9
This means they cannot create the force needed to drink,
10
like humans or elephants or horses.
11
But here is a surprise.
12
The studies show that each family of animals has its own special drinking method.
13
Sunny Jeyong is the study's author and an associate professor of biomedical engineering and and mechanics at Virginia Tech University.
14
He says before they did basic studies of how cats and dogs drink,
15
their guess was that it was about the same way.
16
Instead, they found that cats and dogs are quite different when it comes to drinking water.
17
Dogs must quickly move their tongues down into the water to build speed.
18
They curl their tongues backwards and bring the water up and into their mouths.
19
Cats do not bend their tongues.
20
They use less speed and a more gentle action.
21
They just skim or barely touch the surface of the water to drink it.
22
Sean Gart is a researcher and Virginia Tech graduate student.
23
He says cats are viewed as neat and dogs as messy while drinking.
24
But that is because dogs have to move their tongues fast in the water.
25
This makes good use of the way the water motion works.
26
The research findings were published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

- 借此机会，尝试在雅思口语练习中运用这些新学的词汇与短语，使表达更加丰富。
通过这些练习，您将逐渐增强英语口语能力，更好地掌握动物行为相关的表达，进而提升您的整体英语水平。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
