34、the history of human knowledge. For many thousands of years it was the one field of awareness about which humans had anything more than the vaguest of insights. It is impossible to know today just what our Stone Age ancestors knew about plants, but from what we can observe of pre-industrial societie

When our Neolithic ancestors, living in the Middle East about 10,000 years ago, discovered that certain grasses could be harvested and their seeds planted for richer yields the next season, the first great step in a new association of plants and humans was taken. G

39、rains were discovered and from them flowed the marvel of agriculture: cultivated crops. From then on, humans would increasingly take their living from the controlled production of a few plants, rather than get a little here and a little there from many varieties that grew wild and the accumulated kn

A. deer hunting B. bird watching C. sheep raising D. horseback riding（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(6).Why do tribes living in the jungles of the Amazon recognize so many plants? A. Because plants

46、 have always been enormously important to the welfare of people, especially to those ancient tribes. B. Because their memory are very excellent. C. Because there are many plants growing in the Amazon. D. Because they recognize it as a special branch of knowledge.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.President Bill Clint
