我已經有趴文過了!可是之前沒有人討論這幾題? 是我太笨所以看不懂吧XD Paragraph 1: Pastoralism is a lifestyle in which economic activity is based primarily on livestock. Archaeological evidence suggests that by 3000 B.C., and perhaps even earlier, there had emerged on the steppes of Inner Eurasia the distinctive types of pastoralism that were to dominate the region’s history for several millennia. Here, the horse was already becoming the animal of prestige in many regions, though transportation and warfare that explains why Inner Eurasian pastoralism proved the most mobile and the most militaristic of all major forms of pastoralism. The emergence and spread of pastoralism had a profound impact on the history of Inner Eurasia, and also, indirectly, on the parts of Asia and Europe just outside this area. In particular, pastoralism favors a mobile lifestyle, and this mobility helps to explain the impact of pastoralist societies on this part of the world. 2. According to paragraph 1, what made it possible for Inner Eurasian pastoralism to become the most mobile and militaristic form of pastoralism? A) It involved the domestication of several types of animals B) It was based primarily on horses rather than on other animals. C) It borrowed and improved upon European ideas for mobility and warfare. D) It could be adapted to a wide variety of environments. 這題先把CD刪除!我後來選A~不敢選B的原因是因為我從第一段找不到線索阿! 連horses都沒有出現?這種題型是推論題嗎? 後來在第三段有看到這句話 This is particularly true of horse mobile of all major forms of pastoralism. 我一直以為答案要在該段找........ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paragraph 4 擷取: Nomadism also subjects pastoralist communities to strict rules of portability. If you are constantly on the move, you cannot afford to accumulate large material surpluses. Such rules limit variations in accumulated material goods between pastoralist households (though they may also encourage a taste for portable goods of high value such as silks or jewelry). So, by and large, nomadism implies a high degree of self-sufficiency and inhibits the appearance of an extensive division of labor. 9. According to paragraph 4, the fact that pastoralist communities are subject to “strict rules of portability” encourages such communities to A) Relocate less frequently than they would otherwise B) Have households that are more of less equal in wealth C) Become self-sufficient in the manufacture of silk and jewelry D) Share large material surpluses with neighboring communities 這題也是CD先刪除! 選B我猜可能是因為這句話 Such rules limit variations in accumulated material goods between pastoralist households. 但是選項B 這句話意思可能我沒有搞清楚? Have households that are more of less equal in wealth ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^??? 謝謝大家! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 118.167.232.217
