【C10】______civilizations developed, greater work efficiency came to be demanded, and【C11】______tools became more【C12】______. A tool would【C13】______a function until it proved【C14】______in meeting human needs, at which point an improvement would be made.

选项
A、origins
B、devices
C、sources
D、evidences
答案
A
解析
本题测试逻辑搭配。origin意为“起源,开端”,指事物开始存在或起源的始点:device意为“设计,装置”,指“为特定的目的而做出的设计或发明”:source意为“来源,源自”,指“某事物形成、起源或取得的根本”;evidence意为“证据,证物”。本文主要讲的是工具的起源与发展,所以应该选用A。
