23、 Where did humans come from? An Australian researcher believes that she’s found the answer: river valley in the African country of Botswana (博瓦纳).
Professor Vanessa Hayes from the Garvan Institute of Medical Research in Sydney said she and her team have traced (追踪) modern humans back to small group of people who lived in this valley, according to the BBC.
“It’s an extremely large area, it would have been very lush (苍翠繁茂的), and it would have actually provided a suitable habitat for modern humans,” she said. She and her team studied mitochondrial (线粒体的) DNA (mtDNA) from people who live in south Africa, such as the Khoisan people. This type of DNA is only passed down from mother to child. This makes it easier to trace one’s ancestry (祖先), according to Business Insider. By tracing mtDNA back through different generations, the team concluded that every person alive today is related to a woman who lived in Botswana.
However, some experts doubt Hayes’ findings, saying that studies like hers are no longer important or necessary. “The idea that we’re looking for a single origin [of modern humans] is out of fashion,” said John Hawks, a researcher at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, US, in Popular Science.
There are many other locations around the world where humans could have gotten their start. It is likely that mankind appeared in many places at the same time. “I increasingly think that there probably wasn’t a single population in which modern humans evolved (进化). If that is the case, there is no ‘homeland’,” said Ryan Raaum, who researches African population genetics (遗传学) at Lehman College, US.
【1】According to Hayes, where did humans come from?

【2】Hayes and her team studied mtDNA because ________.
A.it is the most common type of DNA humans share B.there is a new technology to test mtDNA
C.it is only passed down from mother to child D.both women and men can take mtDNA tests
【3】According to Hawks, Hayes’s study is ________.
A.important B.wrong C.fascinating D.unnecessary
【4】What is the story mainly about?
A.New findings about the origin of humans. B.New findings about mtDNA.
C.The evolution of humans. D.The habitats of ancient humans..
24、Perhaps you’ve seen the English letters “WC” in your city. They show public toilets. But do
you know it is far from elegant(优雅的)English? In fact, foreigners from English-speaking countriesrarely use the letters.
Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps.
“WC, or water closet, is old-fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me,” says Charlie Shifflet, a young man from the US. The old sign will become “Gents/Men” and “Ladies/Women”.
“I see lots of poor English in everyday life, and not only on signs,” he says. “I know what they mean. But they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me ‘My hometown is Henan Province’, I know he should say: ‘My hometown is in Henan Province’. ‘Hometown’ is a smaller place in a province.” The common mistakes he picked up include “Not Entry”, which should be “No Entry”, “Direction of Airport” should be changed to “To the Airport”. And it is “room rate”, not “room price”. And remember to “Keep off the grass”, rather than “Care of the green”.
【1】What does the writer think of the use of “WC”?
A. He doesn’t think it means water closet.
B. He doesn’t think it old-fashioned English.
C. He doesn’t think it proper for a sign.
D. He thinks it elegant English.
【2】The underlined word “rarely” means ________.
A. sometimes B. seldom C. often D. always
【3】Charlie Shifflet ___________.
A. is a Chinese living in America
B. thinks Chinese people are sometimes using incorrect English
C. likes to hear or see Chinglish
D. sometimes uses Chinglish
【4】Which of the following signs does NOT use Chinglish?
【5】The last paragraph is about _________.
A. why there are so many Chinglish signs
B. examples of Chinglish
C. where Chinglish signs are
D. who uses Chinglish signs
