1.Woven baskets characterized by a particular distinctive pattern have previously been found only in the immediate vicinity of the prehistoric village of Palea and therefore were believed to have been made only by the Palean people. Recently, however, archaeologists discovered such a Palean basket in Lithos, an ancient village across the Brim River from Palea. The Brim River is very deep and broad, and so the ancient Paleans could have crossed it only by boat, and no Palean boats have been found. Thus it follows that the so-called Palean baskets were not uniquely Palean. 一种具有独特花纹的编织篮子以前只在史前村庄Palea 的临近地区发现过，因而被认为是Palea 居所独有的。然而最近，考古学家在一个与Palea 隔着一条叫做Brim 河的村庄Lithos 发现了一个这样的Palea 篮子。Brim 河很深很宽，所以古代Palea 人只能坐船穿过它，但没有证据表明Palea 人拥有船只。这表明那种所谓的Palea 篮子并不是那里所独有的。 The author assumes that so-called Palean baskets found in Lithos were not made by Paleans. The Palean basket could arrive other place through many possible methods such as trade, or boats possessed by other culture.(萬能模板) The author assumes that the depth and width of Brim River could prevent Paleans from crossing the river by other method such as swimming. In Palean times, the Brim River may not be as deep and broad as it is currently.(事物保持不變) The author assumes that Paleans boats have not found yet so that Paleans could not build boats.(萬能模板) 2.The following appeared as part of a letter to the editor of a scientific journal. A recent study of eighteen rhesus monkeys provides clues as to the effects of birth order on an individuals levels of stimulation. The study showed that in stimulating situations (such as an encounter with an unfamiliar monkey), firstborn infant monkeys produce up to twice as much of the hormone cortisol, which primes the body for increased activity levels, as do their younger siblings. Firstborn humans also produce relatively high levels of cortisol in stimulating situations (such as the return of a parent after an absence). The study also found that during pregnancy, first-time mother monk
