简·古道尔是英国动物学家，在世界上享有极高的声誉。她二十多岁的时候就来到非洲的原始森林。为了观察黑猩猩，她度过了38年的野外生活，收集到黑猩猩习性、行为等方面大量珍贵的科研数据，重新改写了动物及人类自身的定义。 This year, Jane Goodall, the world-famous primatologist (灵长类动物学家) who revolutionized our understanding of animal behavior, is celebrating the 50th anniversary of her pioneering research among the wild chimpanzees (黑猩猩). She is now a 76-year-old grandmother, but time has done nothing to diminish her energy. She is on the road 300 days a year, lecturing to audiences and collecting material for her books. When asked，“Can you sum up what you have learned from 50 years of living among the wild chimpanzees？” Goodall replied，“Of course. We humans are unique, but were not as different as we used to think. Between chimps and humans, there is only about a 1 percent difference in DNA. Our biggest difference is our spoken language, which has enabled us to develop culturally in ways that chimpanzees have not... Some people therefore say that violence and war are inevitable (不可避免的). I say rubbish. Our brains are fully capable of controlling this type of instinctive (本能的) behavior. And most of the time we do.” Read the passage and tell the following statements true (T) or false (F)． 1．Jane Goodall has been researching the chimps for 50 years.(　　) 2．Now she has to stop working on the chimps because of old age.(　　) 3．She thinks the violence and war between human beings and chimps are inevitable.(　　) 答案：1.T　2.F　3.F * * 成才之路 · 英语 路漫漫其修远兮 吾将上下而求索 人教版 · 必修4(十二省区) Women of achievement Unit 1 话 题 导 入 *
