A study conducted by an Australian science agency has discovered signs that the country’s ancient Aborigines may have been the world’s first astronomers,【C1】______Stonehenge(巨石阵)in Britain by more than a thousand years.
Professor Ray Norris, of the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), said【C2】______knowledge of the stars through songs and stories had been passed down through generations by the Aboriginal people, whose history dates back tens of thousands of years.
"We know there are many stories about the sky: songs, legends, myths to mark out the seasons, so they are very【C3】______Norris said. "People【C4】______changed settlement, so when Pleiades(the Seven Sisters star【C5】______)was up they would move to where the nuts and berries are. Another sign and it would be time to move to the rivers to fish for barramundi, and so on."
Norris, who has studied Aboriginal culture【C6】______and has made several journeys to Arnhem Land in Australia’s Outback, said the research also【C7】______more detailed astronomical thought. "Clearly some thinker in the past has been sitting down in the bush, watching the【C8】______and trying to figure out how it works," he said. "Those thoughts are then encoded in the songs and ceremonies." Norris is now looking for【C9】______that might date the earliest signs of Aboriginal astronomy, such as a stone carving of a meteor strike or comet. Norris is confident that the Aborigines pre-dated European astronomers, including Stonehenge and Egypt’s great pyramid Giza, both of which are【C10】______at around 3100 BC. "We’ve established there is all this astronomy, what I don’t know is how far back this goes. If it goes back 10,000 or 20,000 years, that makes Aborigines the world’s first astronomers," he said.
A)detailed B)boosted C)eclipse D)vigorous
E)practical F)evidence G)revealed H)estimated
I)regularly J)routine K)cluster L)preceding
M)extensively N)rectifying O)respectively [br] 【C2】
选项
答案
A
解析
空格处需要一个名词、形容词或分词修饰knowledge,词库中的形容词detailed最符合上下文的意思,表示“详细的星象知识”。由于本段没有提及土著人的星象学怎么有用,因此practical不如detailed合适。
