"

I was a little annoyed．I helped them in their fume of need and didn't get a second thought．I have not responded to her text message．Is it fair of me to consider this friendship over? Should I tell her that I am upset, or should I accept that this rude thank you was better than nothing?

Most artists have a favorite material they like to work with．For 28-year-old Kristen Alice, it happens to be garbage．The eco-friendly designer uses her incredible talent to．transform garbage like empty drink bottles and candy wrappers into charming dresses that sell for thousands of dollars．

Kristen says the idea came to her after she saw how much vaster she and her three college roommates generated ort a daily basis．The Fine Arts student began to dream about transforming the deserted bags and packages into beautiful garments．

Her first dress’ made from plastic bags and rolled magazines was strange, fun and even charming．However, she only made it to test her creativity．

Today her company that has offices in Palm Beach, Florida and New York City, produces a wide variety of dresses ranging from cocktail dresses to ball gowns （礼服）．Kristen, of course, doesn't search garbage cans for her material anymore．Instead, she seeks it from companies that have produced more than they need and are planning to throw away the extras．

However, if you think the garbage-inspired dresses come cheap, think again．The price for ready-made creations retails（零售）from $500 to $1,500．Though that may appear expensive, the designer says she has no shortage of customers．In fact she now even has garbage-inspired clothing for men that includes jackets, ties, trousers and even board shorts!

While every dog owner knows their dogs can read their moods perfectly, scientist9 have always been a piffle doubtful．Now thanks to some researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna, Austria; we finally have some convincing evidence．

For their study, biologist Corson Miller and his team exposés eleven selected dogs to digital images of women that were either angry or pappy．Half the dogs were rewired for touching the screen when shove a happy face, while the other half gilt their treat for selecting those that appeared angry．

Interestingly, the dogs were not provided with the entire face．Some dogs were show Ti only upper halves while the others observed lower halves．That's because the scientists believe humans show their eruptions on their equities face．

After some training ill．e how to recognize small differences like the wrinkles between the eyes or the changes in their shape that accompany the happy or angry expressions, the dogs were mostly able to identify the correct expression not only on a familiar face but on a strange face, the researchers concluded the dogs were smart-enough to read human emotions．

They also found those being trained to．read angry expressions took a’ longer tune to lean．They guess it may be because dogs find angry faces disgusting, causing them to withdraw quickly．However, once the smart dogs realized they were getting rewired, the trepidation seem．end 'to disappear．In fact, the dogs had such a good time playing the computer "game" That scientists had a hard tune keeping them away from the touch screens after the study was completed．

The researchers also noticed only dogs with a male owner had a harder time understanding the expressions correctly．Since the touches．careen models were all females, this confirmed what has been observed in previous studies-dogs are more efficient．at reading facial expressions of people that are the serene gender as their owner．

29．How did the scientists conduct the experiment?

A．By leaving dogs to women who．are either happy or angry．

B．By mixing the selected dogs together．

C．By rewarding only half of the dogs touching the screen．

D．By showing digital pictures of women's happy or angry faces．
