Then the horse must be returned to the barn, unsaddled, cleaned and fed.Yet so many people willingly give their time-because the children need us. Ranging in age fr

28、the common view of our prehistoric ancestors. But the discovery of a woman buried 9 000 years ago in the Andes Mountains with weapons and hunting tools, and an analysis of other burial sites in the Americas challenges this widely accepted division of labor in hunter-gatherer society."Labor prac

29、tices among recent hunter-gatherer societies are highly gendered, which might lead some to believe that sexist inequalities in things like pay or rank are somehow 'natural'," said lead study author Randy Haas, an assistant professor of anthropology(人類學(xué))at University of California, Davis

30、, in a news release. "But it's now clear that sexual division of labor was fundamentally different-likely more equal and reasonable-in our species' deep hunter-gatherer past."The burial site was discovered in 2018 (luring excavations(發(fā)掘)at a high-altitude site called Wilamaya Patjx

31、a in what is now Peru. The woman, thought to be between 17 and 19 years old when she died, was buried with items that suggested she hunted big-game animals.Although some scholars have suggested a role for women in ancient hunting, others have dismissed this idea even when hunting tools were uncovere

32、d in female burials. To examine whether this woman found at this site was an outlier, the researchers examined 429 skeletons(骷髏)at 107 burials sites in North and South America around 8 000 to 14 000 years ago. Of those, 27 individuals were buried with hunting tools-11 were female and 15 were male. T

33、he sample was sufficient to "support the conclusion that female participation in early big-game hunting was likely not unusual".The findings add to doubts about "man-the-hunter" assumption that informed much thinking about early humans since the mid-20th century. They suggest hun

34、ting was very much a community-based activity, needing the participation of all able-bodied individuals to drive large animals, the paper said. The weapon of choice at that time had low accuracy, encouraging broad participation, and using it was a skill learned from childhood.28. What does the recen

Job division of hunter-gatherer society.29. Which of the following might Randy Haas agree with?A. Gender plays no part in recent hunter-gathere

36、r society.B. Sexist inequality is a natural result of prehistoric society.C. Ancient division of labor might be fairer than we'd thought.D. Public ideas of women's role will be changed abruptly.30. What does the underlined word "outlier" in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Exception. B. Failure

37、. C. Role model. D. Easy target.31. What might make prehistoric hunting a community-based activity?A. Lack of able-bodied individuals. B. Imperfection in hunting weapons.C. Better accuracy of females in hunting. D. Need for large animals as food source.DSelective breeding, also known as artificial s

38、election, is a process used by humans to develop new organisms with desirable traits(特點(diǎn)). It can be used to produce tastier fruits and vegetables, crops with greater resistance to pests, and larger animals that can be used for meat.Perhaps the earliest example of selective breeding is the domestic d

39、og. Scientists believe that the domestic clog evolved from the wild gray wolf, and through artificial selection, humans were able to create hundreds of different dog breeds. As people domesticated and bred dogs, they favored specific traits, like size or intelligence, for certain tasks, such as hunt

40、ing, shepherding, or companionship. As a result, many dog breeds vastly differ in appearance, a unique phenomenon in the animal world, as different breeds of a single species generally look like each other. The Chihuahua and the Dalmatian, for instance, are both dogs, yet they share few physical fea

41、tures.Selective breeding has also been practiced in agriculture for thousands of years. Almost every fruit and vegetable eaten today is a product of artificial selection. By picking out wild cabbage plants with specific characteristics, farmers were able to create a variety of vegetables from a sing

42、le source, each with differing flavors. Broccoli, for example, was developed from wild cabbage plants that hadn't enough flower development while kale came from Brassica oleracea with larger leaves.Corn is an unusual product of selective breeding. Unlike rice, wheat, and cabbage, which have clea

43、r ancestors, there is no wild plant that looks like corn. The earliest records of corn indicate that the plant was developed in southern Mexico 6 000-10 000 years ago from a grass called teosinte(墨西哥類蜀黍). Scientists believe that early Mexican farmers selected only the largest and tastiest seeds of t

44、eosinte for planting. This process allowed Mexicans to develop corn very quickly, as small changes in the plant's genetic makeup had dramatic effects on the grain's taste and size.Without selective breeding, many of the plants and animals on earth today would not exist. However, every coin h

What is special about corn as a product of selective breeding?A. It has genetic makeup opposite to teosinte.B. It is the earliest plant dev

More examples of selective breeding.B. Disadvantages of selective breeding.C. Influence of selective bree

Comparison between natural and selective breeding.第二節(jié)(共5小題；每小題2.5分，滿分12.5分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。Personal development doesn't just happen. 36 Self-development requires hard work, devotion and an ever-growing skills. So, what new skills do you need to power f

49、orward?On your journey toward your best self, you need to set goals. The key is balance: If your goals are too high, you'll get discouraged when you fall short. 37 The better approach is to think in milestones. If you want to be a novelist, don't set a goal to finish a book in a week. Focus

50、on getting a couple of pages done each day, or on writing a chapter each week. This measurable progress is more sustainable and fulfilling. 38 To keep going when times are tough, you have to learn how to manage your stress levels. If light walks help you keep your head on straight, schedule one for

51、your lunch period every day. If you need to take Sundays off to recharge for the next week, it's more than acceptable to do so.Organization is a skill that comes more naturally to some people than others. If you're a naturally messy person, start small. Otherwise, you'll be at a loss. 39

52、 Clean up your bedroom or your car. If physical cleaning is stressful, start by cutting out files from your computer. Believe it or not, one clean space can set the tone for the rest of your life.On the road of personal development, you'll run into some barriers. Nobody but you can remove these

53、from your path. 40 Perhaps anxiety is keeping you from doing your best work. Instead of struggling through it, quietly take a mental health day.A. Personal growth needs stress management.B. Focus on the places where you spend the most time.C. You can't expect to wake up the next day with new ski

54、lls.D. Don't let personal challenges stand in the way of your growth.E. That's why problem solving is a vital skill for self-development.F. You absolutely don't need to disclose why you're taking a sick day.G. Start too small, and you'll become satisfied with your progress too ea
