In particular they were frequently able to eat meat; the diet of apes is normally vegetarian(食草的), consisting of grass, leaves, and shoots,【C5】______ by insects and grubs. With tools such as spears and bows, early humans were able to【C6】______ larger animals. Spears and nooses(套索, 陷阱)could be used to catch birds and smaller animals,【C7】______ fish could be taken with nets and traps set on the river bottoms. Excavations(出土文物)made at the living sites of early people have revealed bones from the animals that they ate, while also providing【C8】______ of their ingenuity(精巧,独创性). Some of the bones found in the cave of Makapansgat in South Africa show signs of being【C9】______ broken and divided into types suitable for different purposes as tools.

选项
A、by hand
B、to hand
C、at hand
D、on hand
答案
C
解析
四个词组的意思分别是:A项by hand(人工完成:by a person,not a machine);B项to hand(在手头,随时可用:within reach);C项at hand(在手头,在附近:near in time or place);D项on hand(现有,随时可用的:ready for use or ready whenneeded)。根据上下文,符合句意的选项应该是C项at hand。句子大意:人类总是欣然改变工具以适应环境。一旦人们掌握了制造工具的基本知识,制作一些更适合手头工作的工具就是一件简单的事情了。
