The questions number 5-7 are based on the following passage.
How are we able to find things in the dark? It is because our brains is able to store information in such a way that it can be retrieved by different senses. It turns out that the ability to recognise objects across different sense is present in the tiny brains of an insect. Researchers af Queen Mary University of London and Macquarie University in Sydney have published new work in the journal Science showing that bumblebees can also find objects in the dark they've only seen before.
In the light, but barred from touching the objects, bumblebees were trained to find rewarding sugar water in one type of object (cubes or spheres) and bitter quinine solution in the other shape. When tasted in the dark, bees preferred the object that was previously rewarding, spending more time exploring them.
Dr Cwyn Solvu is the lead authority on the paper who was based at Queen Mary University of London and is now at Macquarie University in Sydney. She said: "The results of our stydy show the bumblebees don't process their sense as separate channels -- they come together as some sort of unified representation."
Selene Gutierrez Al-Khudhairy, co-author on the paper, and now PhD student at the University of York, said: "This is an amazing feat when you consider the miniscule size of a bee's brain. Future investigations of the neural circuitry underlying this ability in bees may one day help reveal how our own brains imagine the world as we do."

A. To explain how bumblebees react to the light
B. To motivate the readers to preserve bumblebees in the wild
C. To reveal how important bumblebees are to human survival
