We can read of things that happened 5000 years ago in the Near East, where people first learned to write. But there are some parts of the word where even now people cannot write. The only way that they can preserve their history is to recount it as sagas—legends handed down from one generation to another. (29)These legends are useful because they can tell us something about migrations of people who lived long ago, but none could write down what they did.
(30) Anthropologists wondered where the remote ancestors of the Polynesian people now living in the Pacific Islands came from. The sagas of these people explain that some of them came from Indonesia about 2000 years ago.
But the first people who were like ourselves lived so long ago that even their sagas, if they had any, are forgotten. So archaeologists have neither history nor legends to help them to find out where the first ’modern men’ came from.
(31) Fortunately, however, ancient men made tools of stone, especially flint, because this is easier to shape than other kinds. They may also have used wood and skins, but these have rotted away. (31)Stone does not decay, and so the tools of long ago have remained when even the bones of the men who made them have disappeared without trace.
选项
A、They moved from one place to another.
B、They came from Indonesia.
C、They have left us information about their migrations.
D、They preserved their sagas and legends.
答案
A
解析
推理判断题。本题关键句为“These legends are useful because they can tell us something about migrations of people who lived long ago。”这些传说很有用,因为我们可以借此了解古人迁徙的情况。Migrations"迁徙,迁居,移居”。people who lived long ago和题干中的the ancient people是相同的意思,故选A。
