Many scientists agree that animals have emotions (情感) just like humans. Although there are different ideas about how animals experience emotions, their action showed that animals experience things like happiness, sadness, nervousness and excitement.
Whales are quite smart and can show sadness. In 2018, an orca (虎鲸) mother was seen carrying her dead child around for weeks as she was sad about its death. Another example shows that whales can have sympathy (同情心) toward other animals. Humpback whales (座头鲸) have been watched fighting with orcas to protect seals (海豹). They keep the seals out of danger by lifting them out of the water on their backs.
Elephants are also known for their ability to show emotions. When an older elephant passes away, its family often stay by the body for a long time, and members will softly touch the dead elephant’s body. And like whales, elephants show sympathy by joining in protective action toward other animals. For example, they’re famous for protecting people from other wildlife.
In a study, a group of mice that had experienced electric shocks froze when they saw another group getting shocked. The action was considered to be an empathetic response (共情反应) as the mice became uncomfortable when seeing others in bad situations.
Animals are able to show their emotions. They use different kinds of ways such as body language, making sounds and action to show their feelings. At the same time, it is important for human beings to understand the emotions of animals and treat them with kindness.
44．How do scientists learn that animals have emotions

63．例文
Dear teachers and students,
Today, I’d like to give a speech about success. Jiao Zi, the brilliant director of Ne Zha 2, teaches me that success demands unwavering determination and the courage to defy fate. He stuck to his creative vision, proving that “My fate is determined by myself, not by heaven.”
I had a successful experience too. Last term, I wanted to excel in the school science fair. Despite facing complex experiments and repeated failures, I kept researching and improving. Finally, my project won high praise.
To achieve success, first, set a clear goal and believe in it. Second, work hard and learn from setbacks. Also, stay persistent—giving up never leads to success. Let’s pursue our dreams with the same spirit as Jiao Zi!
Thank you!
Yours,
Li Ming
