They could not【C2】________ with the bear, whose strength, speed and claws provided an impressive "small-fire" weaponry. They could not even defend themselves【C3】________ running swiftly like the horses, zebras or small animals. If the ape-men had attempted to compete on those terms in the open, they would have been doomed to【C4】________ and extinction. But they were endowed with enormous concealed advantages of a kind not possessed by any of their competitors.
