People used to think the Ice Age people lived in
M: Hey, Jane. What’s so interesting?
W: Oh, hi, Tom. I’m reading this fascinating article on the societies of the Ice Age.
M: The Ice Age? There weren’t any societies then, just the bunch of cave people.
W: That’s what people used to think. But a new exhibition at the American Museum of National History shows that Ice Age people were surprisingly advanced.
M: Oh, really? In what ways?
W: Well, Ice Age people were the inventors of languages, art and music as we know it. And they didn’t live in caves. They built their own shelves.
M: What did they use to build them? The cold weather would have killed almost all of the trees, so they couldn’t have used wood.
W: In some warmer climates, they did build houses of wood. In other places, they used animal bones and skins or lived in natural stone shelters.
M: How did they stay warm? Animal skin walls don’t sound very sturdy.
W: Well, it says here, that in the early Ice Age, they often faced their homes towards the south to take advantage of the sun, a primitive sort of solar heating.
M: Hey, that’s pretty smart!
W: Then people in the late Ice Age even insulated their homes by putting heated cobblestones on the floor.
M: I guess I spoke too soon. Can I read that magazine article after you’ve done? I think I’m going to try to impress my anthropology teacher with my amazing knowledge of Ice Age civilization.
W: Ha... What a show-off!
选项
A、the Ice Age people at that time were surprisingly advanced.
B、Ice Age people were the inventors of languages, art and music.
C、in the cold weather, all of them used wood to build houses.
D、they used animal bones and skins or lived in stone shelters.
答案
C
解析
男士说:“寒冷的天气将毁坏几乎所有的树木,因此他们不可能使用木材。”而女士却说:“在气候暖和的地方,他们会建木屋,但在其他地方,他们用动物骨头和皮或者住在天然的石头庇护处。”可见选C。A、B、D再现原文。不难排除。通常过于绝对的选项本身就有误,据此也可选C。
