That day in January 1948 changed the way people in the UK shopped. On 12 January 1948, a great number of people crowded
22、 into a new shop in Manor Park, London. This was because it allowed shoppers to choose, touch and take things off the shelves themselves.

29、hings inside.DScientists have known for a long time that humans and other apes (类人猿) have many physical similarities. Now, new research has shown that we may also share a language because we use the same physical gestures (手势) to communicate.Researchers already knew that great apes use more than 80
30、gestures to communicate with each other. Touching each other, or holding hands is a way of greeting, while pointing their fingers down beside them means “come here”. The apes might also ask for food from each other by cupping (做杯状) a hand under another apes face.To test whether humans can understand
31、 these gestures, some scientists from the University of St Andres in Scotland brought 5,656 volunteers together. The scientists showed them 20 videos of apes making gestures. After watching each video, the volunteers had to guess what the apes gestures were communicating. The scientists gave some in
32、formation to one group of volunteers, letting them know what the apes had been doing before they made each gesture. This group correctly guessed the meaning of the gestures 57% of the time. The other people, who were not given information about the apes activities, still succeeded 52% of the time. T
33、his suggests that humans seem to understand what apes gestures mean.Scientists need to do more work to find out exactly why humans understand the gestures. Researcher Kirsty Graham said that both humans and apes probably inherited (继承) the gestures from our last common ancestor. It is also possible
34、that although humans have a spoken language, we kept our ability to use gestures to communicate. “In future, we hope to learn more about how gestures develop through the apes lifetimes,” Dr Graham added.12.
