第三十一篇（人物woman）:' I: ^0 N2 [! q; g
Well, in answer to your question, several women (actively participated) in the Civil War. The one that comes immediately to mind is Mary Walker. She is important because she’s the only woman ever to be (awarded) the (Congressional Medal of Honor). As you know, the medal was given to people who’ve (served) the United States with exceptional <bravery>. 0 c7 S9 K+ v6 H( |& i

In addition, she was the only female (physician) in the (either of two armies) that <fought> that war. Even though she had two medical degrees, many officers made her life difficult because they didn’t believe that a woman should be a doctor. However, she refused to back done and (leave) the army. In fact, she (risked her life) several times during the war and was even captured at one point, but she was soon released.

And although congress eventually tried to take her medal away, she refused to give it back and continued to wear (it wherever she went). She died in 1919, a year before women received the right to vote, which brings me to my next point., d0 a! D2 ~' {% X, Z: e

Today’s lecture will (center) on (prehistoric) people on Nevada desert. Now, most of these prehistoric desert people moved <across> the countryside throughout the year. You might think that they were wandering (aimlessly)—far from it. They actually followed a <series> of carefully planned moves. Where they moved depended on where food was available—places where plants were (ripening) or fish were (spawning)., G0 q& h: R: X$ K% ^

* m  q* c; z6 g0 d3 }, b5 SNow often when these people moved, they carried all their <possessions> on their backs. But if the journey was long, extra food and tools were sometimes stored in caves or (beneath) rocks. One of these caves is now an exciting (archaeological) site. Beyond its small opening is a <huge> underground (grotto). Even though the cave’s very large, it was (certainly) too dark and dusty for the travelers to live in—but it was a great place to hide things, (and tremendous amounts of) food supplies and (artifacts) have been found there. The food includes try fish, <seeds> and nuts. The artifact includes stone spear points and knives; the spear points are actually rather small. Here is a picture of some that were found, you can see the size in relation to the hands holding them.

! a1 d; i. m! t- P) ]. yWell, if there are no more questions I would like to continue our discussion of human evolution by looking at Homo erectus, the earliest of our (ancestors who stood) upright(正直的,诚实的). Homo erectus lived about one and a half million years ago and was given that name because at the time the first fossil was discovered, it (represented the first primate) to stand upright.
* [! j2 f5 Z/ B" s
, m+ W9 t) L: W$ R1 a2 T/ c) _4 V  WThere is evidence now that Home erectus had sharper metal skills (than their predecessors). They constructed the first (standardized) tool for (hunting and butchering). They created an (extraordinary) stone implement, a large (teardrop-shaped hand ax whose design and symmetry reveal a keen sense of aesthetics). This detailing, along with the ax’s utilitarian value, strongly suggests that Homo erectus had the ability to conceive of and execute a design to specification.

In addition Homo erectus was the first <hominid> to use fire. This discovery (enticed) them to cook meat, which they could flavor and keep from spilling by flame, and which (paleontologists) now believe may have given them a new <disease>. Some fossil bones of Homo erectus <grossly> deformed, and paleontologists have noted that this condition is similar to that found in people today who have been (exposed to chronic overdoses of vitamin) A. (Apparently) Homo erectus first got this disease by eating large amounts of animal liver. 3 g  ~% D1 Q2 _+ k

I understand your professor has been discussing several <Eastern> (Woodland Indian tribes) in your study of (Native) American cultures. As you have probably learned, the eastern woodland Indians get their name from the (forest-covered areas) of the eastern United States where they lived. The earliest woodland cultures (date) back nine thousand years, but the group we’ll focus on dates back only to about seven hundred A.D. we now called these Native Americans the <Mississippian> culture, because they settled in the Mississippi river (valley).   C4 a3 O+ h9 I, k' e

2 Z. f( w3 ]1 T1 f! fThis (civilization) is known for its (flat-topped monuments) called (temple mounds). They were made of earth and use as temples and <official> residences. The temple mounds were located in the central <square> of the city, with (the huts of) townspeople (built in rows) around the (plaza).
  J* T+ r; ]2 P/ k- c3 t7 ` ; Y; a0 E2 [; J5 f! _$ u
The Mississippian people were city (dwellers). But some city residents (earned) their living as farmers, tending the (fields) of corn, beans and (squash) that <surrounded> the city. The city’s <artisans> made (arrowheads, leather goods, pottery and jewelry). Traders came from far away to exchange (raw) materials for (these items). - ?; V6 g1 L; _& m

第一篇（Baby hypothesis）：
  M; N" K4 ]# ]7 W8 M3 lIn our lab today we’ll be testing the hypothesis that babies can count as early as five months of age. The six babies here are all less than six months old. You’ll be watching them on (closed- circuit) TV and measuring their responses.
( n) V2 s5 ^/ J: W- J- t
! Q# o3 q+ M" g: k1 q  H & b8 Y+ g2 U( u9 a" m9 ]
The (experiment) is based on well-established observation that babies (stare) longer, if they don’t see what they expect to see. First, we’re going to let two (dolls) move slowly in the front of the babies. The babies will see the two dolls disappear behind (screen). Your job is to record, in seconds, how long the babies stare the dolls when the screen is removed.
' n1 S' ]* n; @  ^$ D* ] 1 u) t3 j7 b7 m! g- D/ S
In the next stage, two dolls will again move in front of the babies and disappear. But then a third doll will follow. When the screen is removed, the babies will only see two dolls. If we’re right, the babies will now stare longer because they expect three dolls but only see two.( B+ ~& l1 m7 M9 P9 y
& ~0 C. t* f' O0 [6 a
It seems remarkable to think that such young children can count. My own research is (convinced) me that they have this ability from birth. But whether they do or not, <perhaps> we should raise another question—should we take the advantage of this ability by <teaching> children <mathematics> at such a young age. They have great (untapped) potential, but (is it) good for parents to (pressure) young children?, m) {+ r* l. E' B% \* C
