II. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each question.
Very few people in the modern world obtain their food supply by hunting and gathering in the natural
environment surrounding their homes. This method of harvesting from nature’s provision is the oldest
subsistence strategy, and has been practiced for at least two million years. It was, indeed, the only way
to obtain food until rudimentary farming and the domestication of animals were introduced about
10,000 years ago.
Because hunter-gathers have fared poorly in comparison with their agricultural cousins, their
numbers have dwindled, and they have been forced to live in marginal environments such as deserts
forest or arctic wasteland. In higher latitudes, the shorter growing season has restricted the availability
of plant life. Such conditions have caused a greater independence on hunting, and along the coasts and
waterways, on fishing. The abundance of vegetation in the lower latitudes of the tropics, on the other
hand, has provided a greater opportunity for gathering a variety of plants. In short, the environmental
differences have restricted the diet and have limited possibilities for the development of subsistence
societies. Contemporary hunter-gathers may help us understand our prehistoric ancestors. We know
from observation of modern hunter-gathers in both Africa and Alaska that society based on hunting and
gathering must be very mobile. While the entire community camps in a central location, a smaller
party harvests the food within a reasonable distance from the camp. When the food in the area is
exhausted, the community moves on to exploit another site. We also notice a seasonal migration on
pattern evolving for most hunter gathers, along with a restrict division of labor between sexes. These
patterns of behavior may be similar to those practiced by mankind during the Paleolithic Period.
