Historical records document a group-oriented 【S2】______ , in which one room was used for eating, entertaining guests, and sleeping.

With the development of ideas about individualism, people soon began to shift to the use of 【S4】______ cups and plates; the eating of meals that included meat, bread, and vegetables 【S5】______ on separate plates; and the use of private toilets. They began to build their houses with separate rooms to 【S6】______ guests—living rooms, separate bedrooms for sleeping, separate work areas—kitchen, laundry room, and separate bathrooms.
In Mexico, the meaning and organization of domestic space is 【S7】______ different. Houses are organized around a patio, or courtyard. Rooms open onto the patio, where all kinds of 【S8】______ activities take place. Individuals do not have 【S9】______ bedrooms.

选项
答案
G
解析
从语法结构上判断应选择一个形容词,能修饰“style of living”的正是collective(共用的,集体的)。从上下文理解这段主要讲的是“历史记载证明人们过着集体生活,如在一个房间内吃饭、睡觉、接待客人等”。
