第 40 題至第44 題為題組
Cave men did not live in caves. But some died in them and their 40 thus protected from scavengers and the elements, lasted long enough for palaeontologists to discover and examine them. 41 between 600,000 and 300,000 years ago, quite a few died in La Sima de los Huesos near Burgos, in Spain. The Bone Pit, as the name translates into English, has yielded 6,500 pieces of human skeletons, 42 at least 28 individuals.
Who those people were is a matter of 43 --one that shows the difficulty of popping fossils neatly into boxes marked “species.” They are usually 44 as Homo heidelbergensis, the name given to the first humans who lived in Europe, starting about 600,000 years ago. But they also have features of Homo neanderthalensis (Neanderthal man), a younger species believed to have evolved from heidelbergensis. 【題組】
43. (A) fact (B) mistake (C) debate (D) decree
Who those people were is a matter of debate -- one that shows the difficulty of popping fossils neatly into boxes marked “species.” 那些人是誰是是一個有爭議的問題 --很難顯示誰將化石整齊地放入標有“物種”的盒子中。
