专八练习题： Sporting activities are essentially modified forms of hunting behavior. Viewing biologically, the modern footballer is revealed as a member of a disguised __1__ hunting pack. His killing weapon has turned into a harmless football and his prey into a goal-mouth. If his aim is inaccurate and he scores a goal, __2__ enjoys the hunter’s triumph of killing his prey. __3__ To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefly look up at our ancient ancestors. They spent over a million __4__ year evolving as co-operative hunters. Their very survival depended on success __5__ in the hunting-field. Under this pressure their whole way of life, even if their __6__ bodies, became radically changed. They became chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwers and prey-killers. They co-operate as skillful male-group __7__ attackers.www.for68.com Then, about ten thousand years ago, when this immensely long formative __8__ period of hunting for food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence, so vital to their old hunting life, were put to a new use—that of penning, __9__ controlling and domesticating their prey. The food was there on the farms, awaiting their needs. The risks and uncertainties of farming were no longer __10__ essential for survival. 参考答案及解析: 1. 将viewing改为viewed 非谓语动词view和句子的主语是逻辑动宾关系。 2 .将inaccurate改为accurate 如果真的目标不准确，也就不可能进球了（he scores a goal）。 3 .在enjoys前面加he 由于前面if his aim is accurate and he scores a goal 是条件状语从句，因此可见这里是主句，主句的主语he是不可以省略的。 4 .将look up at的up省略 5 .将year变为复数 6 .将if去掉 7 .将co-operate 改为co-operated 8 .将when改为after 9.将were改为was 该谓语动词的主语是Their improved intelligence，是单数。 10. 将farming改为hunting 纵观全文，在从事种植业后，“狩猎”而不是“农耕”的危险和不确定性对人们的生存已经不再那么重要了。 相关资料 |
