【题目】七选五

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Culture means any human behavior that is learned in human society. All of the meaningful parts of a culture are passed on to different generations through tradition or social learning. 1 Culture exists in agricultural as well as industrialized (工业化的) societies.

Culture is necessary for the survival (幸存) of human beings. Practically everything humans know, think, value, feel, and do is learned through taking part in a cultural system. 2 Here is one of the cases of children growing up apart from human society. In the province of Midnapore in India, a scientist was told by local villagers that there were “ghost (鬼)” in the forest. Upon looking into the case, he found that two children appeared to have been living with a group of wolves in the forest. 3 In his diary, the scientist describes his first view of Kamala and Amala (the names of the children).

Kamala and Amala were terrible-looking creatures; the heads were like big balls covering the shoulders. Their eyes were bright and sharp, unlike human eyes. They were very fond of raw meat and raw milk. 4

It is important for children to live in a healthy cultural environment because they learn knowledge through imitating others. 5

A. From this viewpoint, all human groups have a culture.

B. These children were the ghosts described by the local people.

C. This statement is well supported by some well-written cases.

D. Human beings can develop abilities by fighting against nature.

E. Culture refers only to the art and classical music of a particular society.

F. In general, their behaviors and habits were totally different from human beings.

G. They learn human languages and behaviors by taking part in a certain cultural group.

【2】根据空格后一句可知，下文内容是列举了其中一个例子，因此B项“有很多的例子来证明这一 点”符合语境。

【3】空格前一句提到科学家发现两个孩子和狼群生活在一起，后一句提到他在日记中描述了他对这 两个孩子的第一印象，因此C项“这两个孩子就是当地人所说的鬼”符合语境。

【4】空格前面的内容列举了这两个孩子在行为习惯上与人类的不同之处，因此F项“总而言之，他 们的行为和习惯与人类大不相同”符合语境。

【5】空格前一句提到孩子们通过模仿来习得知识，再结合上一段内容所说的和狼群住一起的孩子身 上有狼的特点，与人类行为完全不同，因此G项“他们通过参加一定的文化团体学习人类语言和行为” 符合语境。
