阅读理解 Dog owners say dogs are smarter. However, this may not be the case. Cats tend to hide their intelligence: they don't want praise from their owners. Cats are independent, whereas dogs are social and mostly travel in groups. Because of this, many people believe that dogs are more intelligent, but the ways of measuring the intelligence of cats and dogs are different because they are different animals. Therefore, the intelligence of cats may be underestimated. The senses of a cat are more developed than dogs. They hear and see better than dogs. The memory of cats is a lot better than dogs. Cats have both long-term and short-term memory. The memory of cats is two hundred times more than dogs. This means that the memory of cats is even better than monkeys and chimpanzees. Scientific American states that a cat can hold 1,000 times more "data storage" than a tablet computer. Cats have better cognition(认知) than dogs. It is true that dogs have a better social IQ than cats, but that doesn't mean that they are smarter than cats. Cats can solve complex problems, and can also distinguish between complex shapes. Also, the observation of cats is greater than that of any other domestic animal. If something new and different enters a house, the cat can quickly figure out what it is. This makes training a cat very easy because they are able to observe what happens very quickly, and are able to learn quicker than dogs. In conclusion, cats have the brain, but they don't want to show it because they don't want love; they want food and just the basic necessities in order to survive. The Huffington Post says, "Dogs come when they're called; cats take a message and get back to you."
