    Climate Change and the NatufianPeople(14年6月15日考題)
    Paragraphs 1 and 2
    The so-called Natufian culture inhabited what is now theMiddle East between approximately 14,000 and 11,500 years ago. This period iscommonly split into two subperiods, Early Natufian (14,000 to 13,000 years ago)and Late Natufian (13,000 to 11,500). The Natufians were hunter-gatherers whorelied primarily on gazelle, although they also cultivated some cereal grains. ■Duringthe early period at least, they lived year-round in villages in built stonehouses. Like  all human beings, their way of life depended on theclimate. ■Around 13,000 years ago, their climate began to change, becomingcolder and drier, a period known as the Younger Dryas.■
    We know that times were hard in the increasingly aridlandscapes of the Younger Dryas, but quite how hard remains unclear. ■Thedroughts certainly caused many ponds and rivers to disappear completely and thelarger lakes to shrink in size. The people who lived in the south, in today’s desertsof the Negev and the Sinai, were most likely hit the hardest. They returned toa completely transient hunter-gatherer way of life, moving from place to ival required improved hunting weapons: game (animals hunted for food) hadbecome scarce, and consequently, success had become essential when a kill waspossible. And so we see the invention of the Harif point, a new kind ofarrowhead.
    Look at the four squares [■] that indicate where thefollowing sentence could be added to the passage.
    As long as the climate remained moderate, theNatufians were able to thrive by remaining in their villages.
    答案:B
