That understanding is known in the【C2】________as having a "theory of mind, "and it is considered the【C3】________to such cherished human【C4】________as sympathy and deception.
    Biologists have learned to treat such【C5】________with caution. Bernd Heinrich and Thomas Bugnyar describe an experiment they have carried out【C6】________ravens.

选项 A、into
B、within
C、beyond
D、from
答案C
解析 由前文“实验者发现全部渡鸦都能追随实验者的目光，甚至能够……”以及后文的“障碍物”可知，此处所表达的意思是渡鸦甚至能够越过障碍物而追踪实验者的目光。beyond the barrier表示越过障碍物，符合文意，故选C。
