    The amazing success of man as a【C1】________ is the result of the evolutionary development of our brains which has led, among other things, to tool-using, tool-making, the ability to solve problems by logical【C2】________. thoughtful cooperation, and language. One of the most striking ways in which chimpanzees biologically resemble humans【C3】________ the structure of their brains. The chimpanzee, with his capacity for primitive reasoning, exhibits a type of intelligence more like that of humans than does any other【C4】________ living today. The brain of the modern chimpanzee is【C5】________ not too dissimilar to the brain that so many millions of years ago directed the behavior of the first ape man.
    For a long time, the fact that【C6】________ man made tools was considered to be one of the major criteria to【C7】________ them from other creatures. It is true that the chimpanzee does not fashion his tools to a regular and set pattern—but then, primitive man, before his development of stone tools, undoubtedly poked around with sticks and straws, at which【C8】________ it seems unlikely that he made tools to a set pattern either.
    It is because of the close【C9】________ in most people’s minds of tools with man that special attention has always been focused upon any animal able to use an object as a tool; but it is important to realize that this【C10】________. on its own, does not necessarily indicate any special intelligence in the creature concerned.

选项
答案 A
解析 空格位于系动词is和表语not too dissimilar之间，据此可推测空格处应填入副词。注意此处not…dissimilar为双重否定，相当于similar。根据上文的“黑猩猩大脑结构跟人类相似”，推断现代黑猩猩的大脑跟几百万年以前类人猿的大脑差异不大的可能性较大，probably表示很肯定的猜测，故选A。definitely“肯定地”过于绝对，可排除。
