The study shows that the earliest ancestor of human being was probably a toothy little cannibal(食人魔). ---- 幻灯片 4According to a report, scientists found some two million to 800,000­year­old fossil­skull pieces, jaws, teeth, and other bones at the Sterkfontein caves complex in South Africa's Gauteng Province. The research indicates that this is the earliest ancestors of man discovered by far, which were named Homo gautengensis. Homo gautengensis were living two million to 600,000 years ago. They were thought to measure 3ft 6 in height and weighed just over 50kg. They were also able to communicate by verbal language. Compared with modern humans, the new species had proportionally long arms, a projecting face somewhat like a chimp's, larger teeth, and a smaller brain. ---- 幻灯片 5Though the teeth of Homo gautengensis proved they had begun to eat plants, the ancestor of man was by no means vegetarian. Along with the burned and de­fleshed bones, the marks on the Stw 53 skull suggest that the man “was certainly on the menu of Homo gautengensis”. ---- 幻灯片 6---- 幻灯片 7 1.[教材原句]Can you think of the alternatives we would use today?(U5P37) [真题呈现](2009·湖北,27)As there is less and less coal and oil, scientists are exploring new ways of making use of________energy, such as sunlight, wind and water for power and fuel.
