Man is endlessly inventive.But his greatest invention is non-invention,the skill of transmitting intact(完美无损的)and unchanged from on egeneration to the next the fundamental ways of doing things which he learned from the generation which preceded him.Children are conceived and reared,houses built,fish caught,and enemieskilled in much the same way by most of the members of any society;and these patterns are maintained for relatively long periods of time.From the perspective of those in each new generation,and for the society as an enduring,historical entity(统一的),this process of cultural transmissionyields enormous economy.Thanks to it,each generation need not rediscover at great cost in time and subject to great risk of failure,what those coming before have already learned.Not only is knowledge thus conserved,but the basis for communal life,resting on common information and understanding is thus established.Since all those in each generation receive more or less the same cultural heritage from the preceding generation,they can more easily relate to one another and more effectively coordinate their actions.
The grand total of all the objects,ideas,knowledge,ways of doing things,habits values,and attitudes which each generation in a society passes on to the next is what the anthropologist often refers to as the culture of a group.The transmission of culture is man’s substitute for the instincts(本能)whereby most other living creatures are equipped with the means for coping with their environment and relating to one another.Yet it is more flexible than instinct,and can grow;that is,it can store new information,infinitely more rapidly than the process of mutation and biological evolution can enrich the instinctual storehouse of any other species.
In the last sentence of the passage,the author implies,but does not directly state,that ________ .
选项
A、human culture can further develop and grow
B、biological evolution can improve the instinct of creatures
C、human culture is more flexible and can store new information far more rapidly than instinct
D、the instinct of living creatures may also grow,but at a much slower pace
答案
D
解析
推断题。短文最后一句Yet it is more flexible than in stinct,and can grow;that is,it can store new information,infinitely more rapidly than the process of mutation and biological evolution can enrich the instinctualstore house of any other species.看出A、B、C三项表述的内容都是作者明确指出的,而D项,the instinct of livingcreatures may also grow,but at a much slower pace作者并没有明确提出,只是一种暗示。故本题选D。
