今天开始第一篇综合写作，delta quiz1的，发现打字速度变慢

The lecture totally reputes the reading passage in three aspects.

First, the professor argues that self recognize does not equal to self-

awareness. An animal's reaction to its image in a mirror doesn't mean it has

self-awareness. However the reading material holds that chimpanzees could

react to the views of themselves in a mirror, so it means they have self-

awareness.

Second, the listerning passage suggests that chimpanzees have the habits to

touch themselves whenever they saw the red marks in the mirror or not. So one

can not say they have self-awareness just from the phenomenon that they keep

touching the red marks which are marked on them by researchers. That

contrasts the experiment from the reading again.

Finally, according to the professor, monkeys may groom themselves while they

are standing before a mirror,but we cann't say that they know the images in

the mirror are themsleves,because when they are in front of a window while

another monkey is standing before them, they will also groom themselves.So

what is said in the reading passage is not correct, that chimpanzees groom

themselves because they realize the images in a mirror are themselves.

Lascaux Cave Paintings
 In Southwest France in the 1940's, playing children discovered Lascaux Grotto, a series of narrow cave chambers that contain huge prehistoric paintings of animals.Many of these beasts are as large as 16 feet (almost 5 meters).Some follow each other in solemn parades,but others swirl about, sideways and upside down. The animals are bulls, wild horses,reindeer, bison, and mammoths outlined with charcoal and painted mostly in reds, yellow, and browns. Scientific analysis reveals that the colors were derived from ocher and other iron oxides ground into a fine powder. Methods of applying color varied:some colors were brushed or smeared on rock surfaces and others were blown or sprayed. It is possible that tubes made from animal bones were used for spraying because hollow bones,some stained with pigment, have been found nearby.
      One of the most puzzling aspects of the paintings is their location. Other rock paintings--for example, those of Bushmen in South Africa--are either located near cave entrances or completely in the open. Cave paintings in France and Spain, however, are in recesses and caverns far removed from original cave entrances. This means that artists were forced to work in cramped spaces and without sources of natural light. It also implies that whoever made them did not want them to be easily found. Since cave dwellers normally lived close to entrances,there must have been some reason why so many generations of Lascaux cave dwellers hid their art.
    Scholars offer three related but different opinions about the mysterious origin and significance of these paintings.One opinion is that the paintings were a record of seasonal migrations made by herds. Because some paintings were made directly over others,obliterating them, it is probable that a painting's value ended with the migration it pictured. Unfortunately, this explanation fails to explian the hidden locations, unless the migrations were celebrated with secret ceremonies.
    Another opinion is that the paintings were directly related to hunting and were an essential part of a special preparation ceremony.This opinion holds that the pictures and whatever ceremony they accompanied were an ancient method of psychologically motivating hunters. It is conceivable that before going hunting the hunters would draw or study pictures of animals and imagine a successful hunt. Considerable support exists for this opinion because several animals in the pictures are wounded by arrows and spears. This opinion also attempts to solve the overpainting by explaining that an animal's picture had no further use after the hunt.
   A third opinion takes psychological motivation much further into the realm of tribal ceremonies and mystery:the belief that certain animals assumed mythical significance as ancient ancestors of protectors of a given tribe or clan. Two types of images substantiate this theory:the strange, indecipherable geometric shapes that appear near some animals,and the few drawings of men. Wherever men appear they are crudely drawn and their bodies are elongated and rigid. Some men are in a prone position and some have bird or animal heads. Advocates for this opinion point to reports from people who have experienced a trance state, a highly suggestive state of low consciousness between waking and sleeping. Uniformly, these people experienced weightlessness and the sensation that their bodies were being stretched lengthwise. Advocates also point to people who believe that the forces of nature are inhabited by spirits,particularly shamans who believe that an animal's spirit and energy is transferred to them while in a trance. One Lascaux narrative picture, which shows a man with a birdlike head and a wounded animal, would seem to lend credence to this third opinion, but there is still much that remains unexplained. For example, where is the proof that the man in the picture is a shaman? He could as easily be a hunter wearing a headmask.Many tribal hunters,including some Native Americans, camouflaged themselves by wearing animal heads and hides.
    Perhaps so much time has passed that there will never be satisfactory answers to the cave images, but their mystique only adds to their importance. Certainly a great art exists, and by its existence reveals that ancient human beings were not without intelligence, skill, and sensitivity.
