s piece in the Science Times on Tuesday. Fruit flies who were taught to be
smarter than the average fruit fly 2 to live shorter lives. This suggests that
3 bulbs burn longer, that there is an 4 in not being too terrifically bright.

instead of instinct. Plenty of other species are
able to learn, and one of the things they

ve apparently learned is when

s the question
behind this new research. I like it. Instead of casting a wistful glance 10 at
all the species we

ve left in the dust I.Q.-wise, it implicitly asks what the
real 11 of our own intelligence might be. This is 12 the mind of every
animal I

They would try to decide what intelligence in humans is really 17 , not
merely how much of it there is. 18 , they would hope to study a 19
question: Are humans actually aware of the world they live in? 20 the
results are inconclusive.
