PART FOUR: READING COMPREHENSION (20 ms) A. Reading comprehension (10ms) The body of primitive man, a faraway and primitive man called Homo sapiens, so far as we can reconstruct from the fragmentary evidence we have, was exactly like our own, and his brain was as big as that of modern man and quite as complicated in structure. His intelligence and his ability to learn were probably as great as that of the average man today, but he had a very meager inheritance of knowledge. The use of tools and weapons of a primitive sort was probably passed on from the subhuman creatures, who had learnt how to break stones and use the sharp-edged pieces for cutting and scraping, and how to use a short, heavy stick for a club and a long, pointed one for a spear. The subhuman creatures knew how to make use of fire when they found it, but they did not know how to make it. They had probably also discovered the advantages of social living; that several families living together in a tribe could offer each other help and protection, and that hunters killed more game if they banded together and had a leader to direct the hunt. The discovery that social living increased the odds in favor of survival was, perhaps, primitive man’s greatest discovery - greater than either the discovery of fire or the invention of the wheel. 1. What we know of primitive man is based upon A. pieces of evidence B. a great deal of evidence. C. no evidence. D. pictures in caves. 2. The first real man A. was unintelligent. B. was incapable of learning. C. received very little knowledge from his ancestors. D. received a great store of knowledge from his ancestors. 3. According to the author, man became a social being because A. co-operation was necessary for survival. B. in prehistoric times only the strongest survived. C. by nature he is a social being. D. none of these. 4. A direct result of primitive man’s discovery of the advantages of social living was a A. family B. tribe C. city D. nation 5. The author believes that man’s discovery of the advantages of social living is A. significant B. insignificant C. of great significance D. well-known B.
