What do we mean by“culture?” Lately social scientists have begun to askif culture is found just in humans, or if some animalshave a culture too. When we speak of culture, wemean a way of life a group of people have incommon. Culture includes the beliefs and attitudeswe learn. It is the patterns of behavior that helppeople to live together. It is also the patterns ofbehavior that make one group of people different from another group. Our culture lets us make up for having lost out strength, claws, long teeth, and otherdefenses. Instead we use tools, cooperate with one another, and communicate withlanguage. But these aspects of human behavior, or “culture,” can also be found in the lives ofcertain animals. Animals can make tools, for example. We used to think that the ability to usetools was the dividing line between human beings and other animals. Lately, however, we havefound that this is not the case. Chimpanzees(非洲小猩猩) can not only use tools but actuallymake tools themselves. Animals can also share knowledge with each other and use their ownlanguage to communicate. So it may be important for us to know that the line dividing us fromanimals is not as clear as we used to think. 1. Choose the statement that best expresses the main idea.____. A.
