50、s. Unfortunately, when Japan invaded China in 1937, excavations at the Beijing Man Site stopped and most of the fossils disappeared, including a Beijing Man skull. After the Peoples Republic of China was established in 1949, the work started again. Zhoukoudian was listed as a World Heritage Site in

51、December 1987. It has not only given us important information about prehistoric Asian societies, but also provided amazing evidence about the process of evolution.

58、yles are generally quite different from those of our hunter-gatherer ancestors, a fact that some claim as the cause of the current rise in global obesity, but new results published July 25 in the open access journal PLOS ONE find that there is no difference between the energy expenditure(耗费) of mode

59、rn hunter-gatherers and Westerners, casting doubt on this theory.

60、pulation of traditional hunter-gatherers living in the open Savannah of northern Tanzania.

The team ran several analyses accounting for

61、the effects of body weight, body fat percentage, age, and gender. In all analyses, daily energy expenditure among the Hadza hunter-gatherers was indistinguishable(难以区分的) from that of Westerners. The study was the first to measure energy expenditure in hunter-gatherers directly; previous studies had

62、relied entirely on estimates. These findings overturn the long-held assumption that our hunter-gatherer ancestors expended more energy than modern populations, and challenge the view that obesity in Western populations results from decreased energy expenditure. Instead, the similarity in daily energ

63、y expenditure across a broad range of lifestyles suggests that habitual metabolic(新陈代谢的) rates are relatively constant among human populations. This in turn supports the view that the current rise in obesity is due to increased food consumption, not decreased energy expenditure. It means we have mor

64、e to learn about human physiology(生理学) and health, particularly in non-Western settings. “These results highlight the complexity of energy expenditure. Its not simply a function of physical activity, ” says Pontzer. “Our metabolic rates may be more a reflection of our shared evolutionary past than o

68、ern Tanzania. ”可知, 研究人员是通过测量每天的能量消耗进行研究的。34. People have long assumed that . A. the rise in obesity is due to increased food consumptionB. decreased energy expenditure makes Westerners fatC. daily energy expenditure stays the same in historyD. humans habitual metabolic rates are unchanged【解析】选B。推理判断

69、题。根据第三段中的“These findings overturn the long-held assumption that our hunter-gatherer ancestors expended more energy than modern populations, and challenge the view that obesity in Western populations results from decreased energy expenditure. ”可知, 研究结果挑战了长期以来西方人的肥胖是由于能量消耗减少的观点, 由此可知, 人们一直认为能量消耗的减少导致了

70、西方人的肥胖。35. Which of the following can reflect our shared evolutionary past? A. Our physiology activity. B. Our energy expenditure. C. Our metabolic rates. D. Our modern lifestyles. 【解析】选C。主旨大意题。通读全文, 特别是根据第三段中的“Instead, the similarity in daily energy expenditure across a broad range of lifestyles su

71、ggests that habitual metabolic rates are relatively constant among human populations. ”可知, 文章介绍了不同生活方式下日常能量消耗相似性表明人类的新陈代谢相对恒定, 并不是现在我们每天消耗的能量比我们的祖先少而导致的肥胖, 故C项(我们的新陈代谢率)最能概括出全文内容。第二节(共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余选项。(2020长春高二检测)Learning to set goals plays an important ro
