Karl Von Linne (or Linnaeus, as he is widely known) was a Swedish biologist who devised the system of Latinised scientific names for living things that biologists use to this day. When he came to (1)_____ people into his system, he put them into a group called Ho mo—and Linne’s hairless fellow humans are still known biologically as Homo sapiens. (2)_____ the group originally had a second member, Homo troglodytes. It lived in Africa, and the pictures show it to be covered (3)_____ hair.
Modern (4)_____ are not as generous as Linne in welcoming other species into Man’s lofty (5)_____, and the chimpanzee is now referred to (6)_____ Pan troglodytes.

选项
A、disputes
B、differences
C、hunches
D、humanities
答案
B
解析
disputes争论,辩论;争执、differences差异;不同、hunches预感、humanities人性;人类。本题是一道全文中心主旨展开推导题。本文从第一段就论述分类。既然把物种纳入不同的类别,就表明物种之间差异(differences)的存在。解题时一定要照顾到全文中心主旨在解题时的展开。故本题的正确答案是"differences"。
