36、ocial （ C） socialist （ D） socialistic 79 The church is _ on the hillside, about a mile from the town. （ A） situated （ B） lied （ C） stationed （ D） placed 79 Like land, labor is means of production. In non-industrial societies, access to both land and labor comes through social links such as kinship,

37、marriage, and descent. Mutual aid in production is merely one aspect of ongoing social relationships that are expressed on many other occasions. Non-industrial societies contrast with industrial nations in regard to another means of production technology. In bands and tribes manufacturing is often l

38、inked to age and gender. Women may weave and men make pottery or vice versa. Most people of a particular age and gender share the technical knowledge associated with that age and gender. If married women customarily make baskets, most married women know how to make baskets. Neither technology nor te

39、chnical knowledge is as specialized as it is in states. However, some tribal societies do promote specialization. Among the Yanomani of Benezuela and Brazil, for instance, certain villages manufacture clay pots and others make hammocks. They dont specialize, as one might suppose, because certain raw

40、 materials happen to be available near particular village. Clay suitable for pots is widely available. Everyone knows how to make pots, but not everybody does so. Craft specialization reflects the social and political environment rather than the natural environment. Such specialization promotes trad

41、e, which is the first step in creating an alliance with enemy village. Specialization contributes to keeping the peace, although it has not prevented intervillage warfare. Among the Trobriand Islanders of the South Pacific, Malinowski found that only two out of several villages manufactured certain

42、ceremonial items that were important in a regional exchange network called the kula ring. As among the Yanomani, this specialization was unrelated to the location of raw materials. We dont know why this specialization began, but we do know that it persisted within the kula ring, which allied several

43、 communities and islands in a common trade network. 80 In non-industrial societies, how do people obtain the means of production? （ A） By land and labor. （ B） Through social links. （ C） By mutual aid. （ D） By many other occasions. 81 What does the sentence “manufacturing is often linked to age and g

44、ender“ mean? （ A） People of all ages and both genders have to do manufacturing work. （ B） People of all ages and both genders have to do the same work. （ C） People of different ages and genders are assigned different jobs. （ D） People of a particular age and gender are not specialized in the technic

45、al knowledge of other groups. 82 In regard to technology, how do non-industrial societies differ from industrial societies? （ A） In non-industrial societies, technology is as specialized as it is in industrial society. （ B） In non-industrial societies, technology is not as specialized as it is in in

46、dustrial society. （ C） In industrial societies, women do different jobs before and after marriage. （ D） In industrial societies, people are more easily adapted to certain technical field. 83 The reason why some non-industrial societies promote specialization is _. （ A） certain raw materials are avai

47、lable （ B） everyone can do craftwork （ C） it booms trade among villages （ D） it prevents intervillage conflicts 84 The author compared Trobriand Islanders and the Yanomani to imply that _. （ A） they were in a regional exchange network called the kula ring （ B） they were both manufacturing handcrafts

48、 （ C） they were located where raw materials were available （ D） their specialization had much to do with social and political environment 84 Every year, 2,000 American lives are saved by the selflessness of others. These are the bone marrow donors who give the gift of life to patients fighting deadl

49、y diseases such as leukemia, lymphoma, and aplastic anemia. Thats the good news. The bad news is that thousands more die each year because not enough people have signed on to the registries that would help the ill find a suitable match for a transplant. Bone marrow or stem-cell transplants are usually a last resort, intended for those whose illnesses have not responded
