 “ The hunter-gatherer tribes that today live as our prehistoric human __1__

  ancestors consume primarily a vegetable diet supplementing with animal foods __2__

  An analysis of 58 societies of modern hunter-gatherers, including the Kung of

southern Africa, revealed that one-half emphasize gathering plants foods,one-third concentrate on fishing, and only one-sixth are primarily hunters,

  Overall, two-thirds and more of the hunter-gatherer’s calories come from __3__plants. Detailed studies of the Kung by the food scientists at the University

  参考答案及解析:

  1. 将as 改为like

  此处的意思是“像史前人类祖先那样生活”。

  2. 将supplementing改为supplemented

  supplemented 修饰diet,可以看作which is supplemented with animal foods的简化形式。

  3. 将and 改为or

  4. 将in改为on

  on average 是固定用法。

  5. 将as 改为while或者whereas

  6. 删掉for,或者将provide改为account

  此处provide 是及物动词,后面不用介词for

  7. 删掉第一个of

  despite 做介词,后面直接接名词。

  8. 在half后加that

  that 指代前面的blood cholesterol levels,不能省略,因为这里是将部落成员的胆固醇含量与美国人的胆固醇含量相比较。

  9.将if改为whereas或者while

  此处意思为“尽管没有人……,但是……”,是转折关系。

  10.在for后面加不定冠词a。
