Test 16
- Read the text and answer the questions choosing the right answer.
Can dogs see television? We often think they can. But
animals do not see as much as we do.They don’t see the
many colours that we see, for they are colour-blind.
You can see a brown rabbit in a green field. Your dog
cannot. All he sees is in grey. When the rabbit moves, your
dog sees it as a moving grey thing in a big grey world.
On television he sees moving grey shadows but cannot
Understand what he sees, or what the shadows stand for.
But your dog has a good sense of smell and hearing, and he
can tell by the smells from your body and the sounds you
make if you are happy or angry. When you get excited by
the pictures you see on television your dog smells and hears
this, and he too may get excited. When this happens you
may think it is the picture on television which is making
him excited but this is not really so.
