问题    The idea of "evolution" is very clearly shown in the story of horse. Millions of years ago, the horse called Eohippus with small teeth and four toes lived in the ground where the plants were easy to chew. Because of changing climate and plants, horses with larger teeth, three toes, till one toe appeared. Finally Eohippus died out and the one-toed survived so well over the grasslands by the time the first man appeared on earth. Darwin considered all modem animals had gradually developed and so had man. The earliest men, with sloping foreheads and much smaller brains, like Eohippus seem to have died out—the weak ones died out and the well- equipped ones survived. Also, like the animals on the different Galapagos Islands, men developed differently according to the condition in which they lived. People living in very hot countries developed black skins, which are good protection against the sun’s rays, and people like the Mongols and Eskimos living in very cold climates have flatter faces and rounder bodies than people else where, to protect them from the cold.
According to the passage, we know that ______.

选项 A、the earliest men in different places developed differently
B、Eskimos’ black skin is helpful to protect them from cold
C、People in Africa have flatter faces than people in other areas
D、the earliest men have the same foreheads and brains as men today

答案A

解析 从文中“men developed differently according to the condition in which they lived”可以分析出,正确答案是A,而其他3项B,C,D都是错误答案。
