My mother was always very strict with me. Even when I was a little girl, she often said something hurtful to me when I failed to do well in my studies. I didn抰 know why she treated mee like that. I thought she must hate me. But it all changed one day.

Your best friend can probably tell when you抮e in a bad moodd. Your dog usually knows when you feel like playing ball. Now scientists say that horses can recognize human feelings, too.
Researchers at the University of Sussex in England found that hourses can tell when a person is happy or angry by reading people抯 facess. The only other animals to have this ability are dogs.
This study was done with 28 horses over the course of a year. The horses were shown photos
of a person with happy or angry expressions. When they looked at the angry faces, the horses heart rate increased more quickly than when they looked at the happy faces.
The horses also turned their heads to look at angry faces with left eyes ?a sign that they recognized the expression as a negativee one. Many animals position their heads to see negative events with their left eyes, which is connected to the part of the brain that processes threatening (有威胁性的）events.
Amy Smith, who led the study, wasn’t surprised to learn that horses can read the looks on people’s faces. People and horses have been working together for about 6,000 years, ever since humans began domesticating (驯服) the animals to help with transportation and faming. It?s possible that horses developed the ability to recognize human feelings.
A smiling human is more likely to be friendly and give them food, while an angry human is more likely to be gruff to them,?explains SSmith. 揑ff horses can understand a human 抯 feelings, then they will know when they should get close to people or stay away.?
Smith and her team plan to keep learning about how horses read people. 揥e抮e also interested in whether horses can recognize huhuman feelings through our voices and body language,?says Smith..
