阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Number sense is not the ability tocount. It is the ability to recognize a 1innumber. Human beings are born with this ability.2，experiments show that many animalsare, too.For example, many birds have good number sense.

Another interesting experiment showed a bird's6number sense. A man wastrying to takea photo of a crow(乌鸦)that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not7until the man left the tower. The man had an8.He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not9the bird.The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was10with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were11 .It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were12able to fool the crow.
How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a 13group.But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are14fooled.
