Very few people in the modern world obtain their food supply by hunting and gathering in the natural environment surrounding their homes. This method of harvesting from nature's provision is the oldest known subsistence strategy and has been practised for at least the last two million years. It was, indeed, the only way to obtain food until rudimentary farming and the domestication of wild animals were introduced about 10,000 years ago. Because hunter-gatherers have fared poorly in comparison with their agricultural cousins, their numbers have dwindled, and they have been forced to live in marginal environments, such as deserts and arctic wastelands. In higher latitudes, the shorter growing seasons have restricted the availability of plant life. Such conditions have caused a greater dependence on hunting, and on fishing along the coasts and waterways. The abundance of vegetation in the lower latitudes of the tropics, on the other hand, has provided a greater opportunity for gathering a variety of plants. In short, the environmental differences have restricted the diet and have limited possibilities for the development of subsistence societies. Contemporary hunter-gatherers may help us understand our prehistoric ancestors. We know from the observation of modern hunter-gatherers in both Africa and Alaska that a society based on hunting and gathering must be very mobile. While the entire community camps in a central location, a smaller party harvests the food within a reasonable distance from the camp. When the food in the area has become exhausted, the community moves on to exploit another site. We also notice seasonal migration patterns evolving for most hunter-gatherers, along with a strict division of labor between the sexes. These patterns of behavior may be similar to those practised by mankind during the Paleolithic Period. Question 41. A typical feature of both modern and prehistoric hunter-gatherers is that ____________. A. they don't have a healthy and balanced diet B. they live in the forests for all their life C. they don't have a strong sense of community D. they often change their living places Question 42. The word "marginal" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ____________. A. suburban B. disadvantaged C. forgotten D. abandoned Question 43. According to the passage, studies of contemporary subsistence societies can provide a _________. A. deeper insight into the dry-land farming B. further understanding of modern subsistence societies C. broader vision of prehistoric natural environments D. further understanding of prehistoric times Question 44. According to the passage, subsistence societies depend mainly on ____________. A. agricultural products B. nature's provision C. farming methods D. hunter-gatherers' tools Question 45. According to the author, most contemporary and prehistoric hunter-gatherers share ___________. A. only the way of duty division B. some restricted daily rules C. some methods of production D. some patterns of behavior Question 46. Which of the following would serve as the best title of the passage? A. Hunter-gatherers: Always on the Move B. Evolution of Humans' Farming Methods C. Hunter-gatherers and Subsistence Societies D. A Brief History of Subsistence Farming Question 47. In the lower latitudes of the tropics, hunter- gatherers ____________. A. have better food gathering from nature B. live along the coasts and waterways for fishing C. harvest shorter seasonal crops D. can free themselves from hunting Question 48.

A. the situations in which hunter-gatherers hardly find anything to eat B. the places where plenty of animals and fish can be found C. the environments where it is not favorable for vegetation to grow D. the situations in which hunter-gatherers can grow some crops Question 50. The word "domestication" in the first paragraph mostly means ____________.

Basic to any understanding of Canada in the 20 years after the Second World War is the country's impressive population growth. For every three Canadians in 1945, there were over five in 1966. In September 1966, Canada's population passed the 20 million mark. Most of this surging growth came from natural increase. The depression of the 1930s and the war had held back marriages, and the catching-up process began after 1945. The baby boom continued through the decade of the1950s, producing a population increase of nearly fifteen percent in the five years from 1951 to 1956. This rate of increase had been exceeded only once before in Canada's history, in the decade before 1911 when the prairies were being settled. Undoubtedly, the good economic conditions of the 1950s supported a growth in the population, but the expansion also derived from a trend toward earlier marriages and an increase in the average size of families. In 1957 the Canadian birth rate stood at 28 per thousand, one of the highest in the world. After the peak year of 1957, the birth rate in Canada began to decline. It continued falling until in 1966 it stood at the lowest level in 25 years. Partly this decline reflected the low level of births during the depression and the war, but it was also caused by changes in Canadian society. Young people were staying at school longer; more women were working; young married couples were buying automobiles or houses before starting families; rising living standards were cutting down the size of families. It appeared that Canada was once more falling in step with the trend toward smaller families that had occurred all through the Western world since the time of the Industrial Revolution. Although the growth in Canada's population had slowed down by 1966 (the increase in the first half of the 1960's was only nine percent), another large population wave was coming over the horizon. It would be composed of the children who were born during the period of the high birth rate prior to 1957. Question 66. The phrase "prior to" in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to __________________. A. during B. behind C. before D. since Question 67. When was the birth rate in Canada at its lowest postwar level? A. 1957 B. 1966 C. 1951 D. 1956 Question 68. It can be inferred from the passage that before the Industrial Revolution __________________. A. population statistics were unreliable B. the population grew steadily C. families were larger D. economic conditions were bad Question 69. According to the passage, when did Canada's baby boom begin? A. During the depression of the 1930s B. After 1945 C. In 1966 D. In the decade after 1911 Question 70. What does the passage mainly discuss? A. Educational changes in Canadian society B. Canada during the Second World War C. Population trends in postwar Canada D. Standards of living in Canada Question 71. The author suggests that in Canada during the1950s __________________. A. the urban population decreased rapidly B. economic conditions were poor C. fewer people married D. the birth rate was very high Question 72. The word "surging" is closest in meaning to __________________. A. surprising B. new C. accelerating D. extra Question 73. The word "five" in the first paragraph refers to__________________. A. decades B. marriages C. years D. Canadians Question 74. The word "trend" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to __________________. A. aim B. growth C. tendency D. directive Question 75.
