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、too
B、either
C、though
D、also
答案
C
解析
too也,还、either也,而且、though可是,不过,然而、also也,同样。本题是一道词汇题,考查转折词"though"的使用。本题所在句和上句实际上存在着一种"转折"关系,故选项though 应该是本题的正确答案。在解题时要特别注意转折词的出现,因为这类词往往成为考点。
