I returned to Abujs,the capital of Nigerin,after college gradvation.I had been there before my mother became a minister.

Two weeks Inter.I told  my mother I was bored.She said.“Here’re the car keys.Go and buy some fruit.”  36   ,I jurnped into the car and speeded off.

Seeing me or rather my  37   ,a boy sprang up(跳起来).  38    to sell his banan is and peanuts.“Banana 300 naira.Peanut 200 naira!”

Looking at his bbinck-striped bananas,I  39    to 200 total for the fruit and nuts.

He  40   .I handed him a 500 naira note.He didn’t have  41   .So I told him not to worry.He was  42   and smiled a row of petfect teeth.

When.two weeks later.I  43   this same boy.I was more aware of my position in Nigerian soeicty.I should  44   this country as the son of a  45   .But it was hard to find pleasure in a place where it was so  46   to see a little boy who should have been in school selling fruit.

    “What’s up?”I asked.He answered in  47   English,“I…I no get money to buy book.”I took out two 500 naira notes.He looked around  48   before sticking his hand into the car   49  the bills.One thousand naira means a lot to a farnily that  50   only 50,000 cach year.

    The next morning,security officers told me,“In this place,when you give a little,people think you’re a fountain of opportunity(机会).”

  51    it’s right,but this happens everywhere in the world.I wondered if my little friend had actually used the money for  52   .

    After six months’work in northern Nigeria,I returned and saw him again standing on the road.

“Are you in school now?”

He nodded.

A silence fell as we looked at each other,then I  53    what  he wanted.I held out a 500 naira note.“Take this.”

He shook his head fiercely and stepped back  54    hurt.

“It’s a gift.”I said.

    Shaking his head again,he handed me a basket of bananas and peanuts,“I’ve been waiting to 55   these to you.”

The discovery of a dwarfed (矮个的)”human being” who lived in Flores .Indonesin .up to 18,000 years ago is changing the way we think about the human family .This “Flores Human”was three foot tall and her brain was smaller than that lf the average chimp (黑猩猩).yet she and her relatives apparently lived fully human lives .They seem to have made tools ,worked together to find food and cook it,and perhaps even hurried their dead with ceremony.

It was a major surprise to find tools associated with the new human family member .The tools are like those frmmerly seen only with European fossils (化石)from our own species;Homo sapiens (智人)；and the oldest of them were made  94,000years ago .Homo sapiens is thought to have amved in the island about 40,000 years ago ,much too late to be responsible for the tools .If this tiny human made the tools ,them the inside  structure (结构)of its brain must have been more like our own than a chimp’s ,despite being just a third the size of ours.

   This “new human” was suspected to be a dwarfed ranch of Homo erectus (直立人). When creatures are separated in regions with rare resources but few enemies,being big is a disadvantage, and evolution tends to shrink them, aprocess known as island dwarfing.Could natural selection make a human smaller while keeping----even improving----mental ability ?Quite possibly, believes Christopher Wills of the University of California.

   Has the “Flores Human” even shown the ability of language? “I find it difficult to imagine that people could make tools.use fire ,and kill large animals without fairly advanced communication.”  Wills says .Did “Flores Human” possess the basic components of human culture ---such as the burying of the dead with ceremony ?  Emiliano Bruner of the Italian Institute points out that Indonesia’s hot,wet environment is bad for fossilization.It is reasonable to assume ,he says ,that the 18,000-year-old bones of the most complete Flores woman were well-preserved because she was buried with special care.

67.According to the passage , “Flores Human”______.

A. lived a partly human life

B. was a branch of Homo sapiens

C. used tools before Homo sapiens arrived

D. had a brain as a common chimp’s                    

68.The underlined part “this tiny human”in Paragraph 2 refers to _______.

A.a chimp     .       B.Flores Human       C.Homo sapiens       D.Homo sapiens                  

69.This passage mainly talks about______.

A. the tools made by “Flores Human”

B. the language used by “Flores Human”

C. the evolution of “Flores Human”

D. the major surprising findings about “Flores Human”      

70.According to the passage ,it is believed that “Flores Human”_______.

A. was dwarfed by its enemies   

B. could use language

C. left a lot of fossils in hot and wet environment

D. reached Flores 40,000 years ago
