“ the hunter-gatherer tribes that today live as our prehistoric human __1__

ancestors consume primarily a vegetable diet supplementing with animal foods __2__

an analysis of 58 societies of modern hunter-gatherers, including the kung of

southern africa, revealed that one-half emphasize gathering plants foods,one-third concentrate on fishing, and only one-sixth are primarily hunters,

overall, two-thirds and more of the hunter-gatherer’s calories come from __3__plants. detailed studies of the kung by the food scientists at the university

of london, showed that gathering is a more productive source of food than is hunting. an hour of hunting yields in average about 100 edible __4__calories, as an hour of gathering produces 240. __5__

plant foods provide for 60 percent to 80 percent of the kung diet, and no __6__one goes hungry when the hunt fails. interestingly, if they escape fatal infectionsor accidents, these contemporary aborigines live to old ages despite of the absence __7__of medical care. they experience no obesity, no middle-aged spread, little dental decay, no high blood pressure, no heart disease, and their blood cholesterol levels are very low (about half of the average american adult). __8__if no one is suggesting that we return to an aboriginal life style, we certainly __9__could use their eating habits as a model for healthier diet. __10__

1. 将as 改为like

此处的意思是“像史前人类祖先那样生活”。

2. 将supplementing改为supplemented

supplemented 修饰diet，可以看作which is supplemented with animal foods的简化形式。

3. 将and 改为or

4. 将in改为on

on average 是固定用法。

5. 将as 改为while或者whereas

6. 删掉for，或者将provide改为account

此处provide 是及物动词，后面不用介词for

7. 删掉第一个of

despite 做介词，后面直接接名词。

8. 在half后加that

that 指代前面的blood cholesterol levels，不能省略，因为这里是将部落成员的胆固醇含量与美国人的胆固醇含量相比较。

9.将if改为whereas或者while

此处意思为“尽管没有人……,但是……”，是转折关系。

10.在for后面加不定冠词a。

psychologically there are two dangers to be guarded against in old age. one of these is due absorption in the past. it does not __1__work to live in memories, in regrets for the good old days, or in __2__sadness about friends who are dead. one's thoughts must be directed to the future, and to things which there is something to be done. __3__this is not always easy; one's own past is a gradually increasing weight. it is easy to think for oneself that ont's emotions __4__

are used to be more vivid than they are, and one's mind more __5__keen. if this is true it should be forgotten, and if it is forgotten it will probably not be true.

the other thing to be avoided is clinging to youth in hope of __6__sucking vigour from its vitality. when your children are growing up __7__they want to live their own lives, and if you continue to be as interested in them as you were when they were young, you are likely to become a burden to them, except they are unusually callous. i do not __8__mean that one should be without interest in them, but one's interest should be contemplatory and, if possible, philanthropic, but not __9__unduly emotional. animals become indifferent to their young as soon as their young can look after themselves, but human beings, owing to the length of infantry, find this difficult. __10__

-undue

如果是due absoption，就没有必要说two dangers to guarded against，所以这里犯了语义颠倒的错误。

-do

work在这里用得不好，应该为do，表示“能……”，work往往表示“行不行得通”，如：it does not work to employ two people. we need at least 5.

3.^which-about

这里缺少了介词about，使先行词things 和something to be done无法连接。

-to

to think for oneself表示“为自己着想”，这这里显然不是这个意思，应改为to oneself 表示“自己想……”，类似于to say to oneself。

(used)-/

be used to 表示“习惯于……”，而这里的意思是“过去曾经……”，所以应改为used to do。

-the

词组in the hope of 或 in hopes of 表示“怀着……的希望”。

g-grown

be growing up 表示“在成长的过程中”，而这里表示的.是“当孩子们长大以后……”，所以应改为are grown up。

-unless

except表示“除了……之外”，在意思上不贴切，应改为unless表示“除非……”。

platory-contemplative

没有contemplatory这个词，有的是contemplative，表示“沉思的，冥想的”

ry-infancy
