The evolution of culture is dependent upon the development of the tools of civilization. Civilized cultures exhibit a high degree of ingenuity. It is the concept of humans as toolmakers and modifiers that differentiates us from other animals and, some would say, makes us civilized. A monkey might use a stick to remove termites from a log, but that stick will never be reworked into a fork or other eating utensil. Monkeys have never devised a spoken language, written a book, composed a melody, built a house, or paved a street. To claim that birds build nests and beavers construct dams is to miss the mark. Man once lived in caves, but our imagination and creativity have allowed us to progress toward true civilization.
Which generalization about modern civilization is supported by the passage?
选项
A、Modern civilization is not due to man’s achievement.
B、Modern civilization is a result of prolific human creativity.
C、Modern civilization cannot be viewed as successful.
D、Modern civilization is a result of man copying the behavior of certain animals.
E、Modern civilization came about through luck.
答案
B
解析
The best answer is B. Choice B is the best option because the last sentence in the paragraph states that imagination and creativity have allowed true civilization.
