25、 cold clear water of Lake Huron, researchers have found a fiveandahalffootlong piece of wood that is 8,900 years old. The wood, which is tapered (使成锥形) on one side in a way that looks deliberate, may provide important clues to a mysterious period in North American prehistory. “This was the stage wh

26、en humans gradually shifted from hunting large animals to fishing, gathering and agriculture，” said anthropologist John O’Shea. “But because most of the places in this area that prehistoric people lived in are now under water, we don’t have good evidence of this important shift itself. We just have

27、clues from before and after the change.” With support from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), O’Shea and his colleague Guy Meadows began exploring the area several years ago. In 2009 they reported finding a series of stone features

28、that they believe were “drive lanes” used by ancient Indian hunters. Since that discovery, O’Shea and Meadows have worked on identifying human campsites, which are typically located away from hunting areas. On their 25foot boat, the researchers first spotted the ancient wood object using a small pi

29、ece of equipment with a camera. Then a team of divers — including O’Shea — went down about 100 feet to get it. The wood’s age has now been fixed by means of carbon dating. It is currently undergoing more detailed analyses to determine whether there has been human modification, which visual examinat

30、ion suggests. “The first thing you notice is that it appears to have been shaped with a rounded base and a pointed tip，” O’Shea said. “It must have been created. It looks like it might have been used as a tent pole or a pole to hang meat.” In addition to the wood, the researchers have collected man

31、y other samples from the bottom of the lake. O’Shea and his colleagues will need to wait for calmer weather before they can resume their search for evidence of human life under the great lake. 21．During the mysterious period mentioned in the passage, the Lake Huron area ________. A．was deserted

32、by ancient Indians B．witnessed the start of agriculture C．was taken up by large animals D．began to be covered by water 解析：选B　推理判断题。从第一、二段的“may provide important clues to a mysterious period in North American prehistory ... when humans gradually shifted from hunting large animals to fishing, gath

34、a and his colleagues didn’t draw the final conclusion from visual examination. 解析：选B　细节理解题。从第三段的“In 2009 they reported finding a series of stone features that they believe were ’drive lanes’ used by ancient Indian hunters”可知，John O’Shea和Meadows之前的研究也是有成效的。 23．What’s the fourth paragraph mainly abo

35、ut? A．How the wood was found. B．Why the wood is important. C．Preparations that were made for the discovery of the wood. D．Conclusions the experts have made from the discovery of the wood. 解析：选A　主旨大意题。本段主要交代了John O’Shea和同事们从何时开始使用何种方法找到了这块木头。 24．According to the passage, ________. A．experts ha

36、ven’t found out the age of the wood B．experts first noticed the wood when they were diving C．the wood was probably a humanmade tool D．the wood is the most important discovery among all the samples found under the lake 解析：选C　推理判断题。从第五段的“’It must have been created. It looks like it might have bee

37、n used as a tent pole or a pole to hang meat.’”可知C项正确。 B Christmas dinner at Bruce Sweetser and Denali Delmar’s house will come in part from their backyard garden.

Their idea might best be described as locavorism (本土膳食主义). And they believe that eating local food is healthier and better for the enviro

39、nment. About two years ago, the couple ran across a car accident. The only victim was a deer. And then they found an interesting list by chance. In Massachusetts, many deer always rush to the motorway and often cause the accidents. So some Massachusetts police departments keep lists of people inte

40、rested in harvesting meat if a deer isn’t damaged too much after a runin with a car. There are eight people on the Westford Police Department’s official list. In addition, animal control officials also call people to harvest the meat. But Massachusetts law requires that the driver of the car get fi

41、rst right to the deer. If the driver or passengers don’t want to get the deer, then police can give the animal to people living in Massachusetts. In other words, they can go to the list. Bruce and his wife weren’t on the Westford list, when they came across that first deer in 2009. But now, they ar

42、e, and they have harvested three deer as a result, putting the extra meat in the fridge for regular dinners and special occasions like Christmas. 语篇解读：为了更绿色环保的生活，新英格兰的本土膳食主义者竞相食用一些因车祸而死的鹿。 25．For Christmas dinner, the couple will cook ________.

Previously, evidence of corn as a food about 5,000 years ago had mostly come from what are called microfossils — microscop

58、ic remains that do not offer information on the size and shape of the corncobs (玉米棒). But the newfound corn remains revealed a lot, via radiocarbon dating and other tests. The people who lived in Paredones and Huaca Prieta probably cooked corn in several ways：Wrapping a corncob and resting it on co

59、als, roasting a corncob directly over a flame, or cooking a corncob in an earthen oven.

60、 grass called teosinte, according to Piperno, whose research has been published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. A few thousand years later, corn was brought to South America, where farmers bred the plant crop into hundreds of varieties. Indeed, what surprised Piperno
