Cultures are different because the locations they exist in are
different. Some people living in the desert are going to live differently
from people live in a jungle. So when they have to decide why the sky is【S1】_________________
blue, if you’re living in the jungle and there are loads of blue flowers,
you might say it’s because there are loads of these blue flowers up here.【S2】_________________
If you live in the desert you might have ever seen a blue flower so you【S3】_________________
say it’s because there’s water up there. So people come out with this【S4】_________________
different stuff, and then they elaborate on it, and change it around.
Then their kids move to different places and it gets all mix up, and the【S5】_________________
stories change, and people invent science and that changes everything
too—although the beginnings are still there. Everyone knows now that【S6】_________________
the sky’s blue because light wavelength absorption differences, but you【S7】_________________
still have people who grew up one way saying " my grandmother told me
a story about blue flowers in the sky" and the other people say "my【S8】_________________
grandmother told me a story about seas of water in the sky" , and that’s a different culture.
In the Mediterranean they never saw corn unless they sent people【S9】_________________
exploring to the Americas; and in the Americas they’d never seen olives
until the guys from the Mediterranean brought some up. The people in【S10】________________
the Americas have made a lot of corn cakes and corn bread and stuff,
and that was part of their culture; and the guys from the Mediterranean
made a lot of olive stuff, oil and foods, and that was part of their culture. [br] 【S3】
选项
答案
ever—never
解析
语义错误。根据上下文可知,该句表达的意思是“如果你在沙漠中生活,也许从未看到过蓝色的花,所以你会解释说是因为那边有水才有这样的花。”表示“从未”应该用never。
