differently from people live in a jungle. So when they have to decide【S1】______
why the sky is blue, if you’re living in the jungle and there are

these blue flowers up here. If you live in the desert you might have【S2】______
ever seen a blue flower so you say it’s because there’s water up【S3】______
there. So people come out with this different stuff, and then they【S4】______
elaborate on it, and change it around. Then their kids move to
different places and it gets all mix up, and the stories change, and【S5】______
people invent science and that changes everything too—although the【S6】______
beginnings are still there. Everyone knows now that the sky’s blue
because light wavelength absorption differences, but you still have【S7】______
people who grew up one way saying " My grandmother told me a
story about blue flowers in the sky" and the other people say "my【S8】______
grandmother told me a story about seas of water in the sky" , and
that’s a different culture.
In the Mediterranean they never saw corn unless they sent【S9】______
people exploring to the Americas; and in the Americas they’d never
seen olives until the guys from the Mediterranean brought some up.【S10】______

bread and stuff, and that was part of their culture; and the guys
from the Mediterranean made a lot of olive stuff, oil and foods, and
that was part of their culture.

选项
答案
ever一never
解析
语义错误。根据上下文可知,该句表达的意思是“如果你在沙漠中生活,也许从未看到过蓝色的花,所以你会解释说是因为那边有水才有这样的花”,表示“从未”应该用never。
