Question

【题目】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 societies.

Culture is necessary for the survival and existence of human beings. Practically everything humans know, think, value, feel, and do is learned through taking part in a sociocultural system. 【2】 Here is one of the cases of children growing up apart from human society. In the province of Midnapore in India, the director of a children’s home was told by local villagers that there were “ghost” in the forest. Upon looking into the case, the director found that two children, one about eight years old and the other about six years old, appeared to have been living with a pack of wolves in the forest.【3】 In his diary, the director describes his first view of Kamala (as the older child was named) and Amala (the name given to the younger child):

Kamala was a terrible-looking being, the head, a big ball of something covering the shoulders. 【4】Their eyes were bright and sharp, unlike human eyes. They were very fond of raw meat and raw milk. Gradually, as they got stronger, they began going on all fours, and afterwards began to run on all fours, just like squirrels.

Children learn human language in the same way they learn other kinds of human behavior — by taking part in a cultural community.【5】

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

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

C. Close at its heels there came another terrible creature exactly like the first, but smaller in size.

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

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

F. They learn a certain human language as well as certain kinds of human behavior through their membership in a certain cultural community.

G. Human beings can only develop human abilities by the local people.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】D

【2】B

【3】E

【4】C

【5】F

【解析】

【1】D根据上一句All of the meaningful parts of a culture are passed on to different generations through tradition or social learning.可知文化的所有部分都会传给下一代，意味着所有的人类群体都有自己的文化。故D正确。

【2】B 根据下文列举的狼孩的事例可知，人类文化一定要通过参加社会体系才可以获得。这是对本段第二句话Practically everything humans know, think, value, feel, and do is learned through taking part in a sociocultural system.的证明，B项属于上下文的过渡句。

【3】E 根据上文the director of a children’s home was told by local villagers that there were “ghost” in the forest.可知森林中有所谓的“鬼”存在。再看上一句one about eight years old and the other about six years old, appeared to have been living with a pack of wolves in the forest.可知这两个男孩实际上就是人们所谓的鬼。故E项符合上下文串联。

【4】C 本段是对上一段最后一句In his diary, the director describes his first view of Kamala (as the older child was named) and Amala (the name given to the younger child):中两个狼孩的外貌的描述，前面一句Kamala was a terrible-looking being, the head, a big ball of something covering the shoulders.想叙述年纪大一点的Kamala，那么本句就是叙述年龄小一点的Amala。故C项符合上下文串联。

【5】F根据上句Children learn human language in the same way they learn other kinds of human behavior——by taking part in a cultural community.可知在不同的环境对他们有了不同的影响，他们的身上既有人的行为也有狼的特点，故F项正确。
