People say bees can always find the way home. Wherever you put them, they can come back. John Smith didn’t believe this, so he did an experiment(實(shí)驗(yàn)).

     He caught 20 bees under the eave(屋檐) of his house and put them in a bag. He asked his daughter to wait there and see if the bees would come back. He marked(作標(biāo)記) the bees and took them two miles away. Then he opened the bag and let the bees out.

     When he got home, his daughter ran to him and shouted, “ Two bees have come back.” Both John and his daughter were very excited. He went to see them at once. Yes, two bees were there. They flew about two miles in three quarters. And they came back with pollen(花粉) on their bodies. It was getting dark. No more bees came back home. John became worried.

      The next morning, he came to see the bees again. To his surprise, another fifteen bees came back with pollen on their bodies. As a result, John believed that bees really have the ability of finding their way home.

Have you ever suddenly felt that someone you know was in trouble—and he was? Have you ever dreamed something that came true later? Maybe you have ESP.
ESP stands for（代表） Extra Sensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away.
Here is an example: A woman was doing washing. Suddenly she screamed, “My father is dead!” I saw him sitting in the chair!” Just then. a telegram came. The woman’s father had died of a heart attack. He died sitting in a chair.
There are thousands of stories like this on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what is behind these strange mental messages. Here’s another example—one of hundreds of dreams that have come true.
A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by. The driver said, “There’s room for one more.” The man felt the driver was dead, so he ran away. The next day the man was getting on a crowded bus. The bus driver said, “There’s room for one more.” Then the man saw the driver’s face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldn’t get on the bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was killed!
Some people say stories like these are lies or coincidences. Others, including some scientists say that ESP is true. From studies of  ESP, we may some day learn more about the human mind.
【小題1】People with ESP may know about ____________

A．someone’s troubleB．events before they happen
C．their dreamsD．events after they happen
【小題2】 From the passage it can be inferred that ____________.
A．a(chǎn)ll people have ESPB．some women or men have ESP
C．children have ESPD．no have ESP
