28、g remains and the phenomenon still exists.The Joneses are everywhere, living a successful and wealthy life. Their skin is beautiful, their body is perfect, and they have much money. They have the good house, pets, smart children and they seem never to struggle. For people, the Joneses take the form
29、of a particular family and they regard the Joneses as a description of perfection.We tell ourselves constantly if we could become someone just like our neighbors, we would be happy. However, as we compare ourselves with others, we notice the deep pain that these comparisons bring about. Well then, w
30、hat do we do about the Joneses? We should remind ourselves nobody is perfect and perfection is an illusion. So we should train our brains to question or change the distorted (歪曲的) ways of thinking, and see the big picture.While the methods above do help us see others more clearly, the methods alone
31、wont solve the problem. Moving away from comparison means turning inward to address our insecurities and inviting more mercy.

35、 Phenomenon of Comparison Exist?DIf you were to move to a new country with a different language and bring along the family dog, your pet would likely have a hard time understanding commands from the locals, according to a new study looking at how dogs brains react to different languages.The new stud
36、y was conducted by lead author Laura Cuaya, a neurobiologist at Eotvos Lordnd University in Hungary, who recently moved from Mexico to Tokyo alongside her dog Kun-kun.Cuaya and her team trained 18 dogs, including Kun-kun, to lie motionless in an MRI machine so the researchers could scan their brains
37、. As the dogs were being scanned, the researchers played the dogs three different recordings: a Spanish reading from the famous childrens book The Little Prince; a Japanese reading from the same book; and a series of human noises that did not resemble speech at all. All of the dogs had been exposed
38、to only one of the two languages, meaning one was familiar to them and the other was unfamiliar. MRI scans revealed that dogs brains can distinguish between familiar and unfamiliar languages, making them the first-known, and so far only, non-human animals to be able to tell the difference between hu
39、man languages.During the experiments, researchers also found that older dogs showed more activity in the secondary auditory cortex of the brain, suggesting they were better at differentiating familiar and unfamiliar languages than younger dogs. “I think that the main reason that older dogs are bette
40、r at differentiating languages is the amount of exposure to the language. Cuaya said. “Older dogs have had more opportunities to listen to humans while they talk.”What makes dogs unique is that they do not need to be trained to distinguish between human languages. “Their brains detected the differen
41、ce naturally, perhaps due to the domestication process,” Cuaya said. “While it is possible that many species can distinguish between human languagesm, dogs are one of the few that are interested in hearing us.”32. What does the new study find?A. Dogs may settle into a new environment easily.B. Dogs
42、can face language barriers in a foreign country.C. Dogs are more sensitive to languages than other animals.D. Dogs fail to understand their owners in a new environment.33. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the study?A. Its background.B. Its benefit.C. Its process.D. Its purpose.34. What doe
43、s Cuaya intend to convey in the last paragraph?A. Dogs are closely related to humans.B. Humans should be more friendly to dogs.C. Training plays an important role in raising dogs.D. Domestication helps dogs better live with humans.35. Whats the best title for the text?A. Dogs can bring surprising he
