CLOZEFill in each of the 15 blanks in the passage with the most likely answer. Blacken the letter corresponding to your choice on the answer sheet. (1 point each, 15 points in all)Without transportation, there could be no trade. Without trade, there could be no towns and cities. Towns and cities are traditionally the 16 centers of civilization. Therefore, transportation helps make civilization 17 practical .Throughout most of the prehistoric period, people lived by hunting, fishing, and 18 growing wild plants. They had no beasts of burden, wheeled vehicles, or roads. People traveled 19 on foot and carried their infants and belongings strapped to their backs or heads. Loads too heavy for one person to carry were strapped to a pole and carried by two people. 20 All the while , people learned that they could drag loads along the ground on sledges. During late prehistoric times, people began to build sledges with runners.When people developed agriculture and began to establish 21. permanent settlements, trade between settlements started to develop, which created a need for better 22 means of transportation. The donkey and the ox, which had been tamed for food products and farm work, helped 23 meet this need. The use of donkeys and oxen as beasts of burden enabled people to 24 move heavier loads than they could before.People also began to develop water transportation during prehistoric times. They built rafts of such 25 materials as logs or reeds. Later, people learned 26 how to make dugouts and canoes. People paddled these early craft with their hands or propelled them with paddles or 27 poles .The wheel was invented about 3500 B.C. and sailboat about 3200 B.C. Wheeled vehicles and sailing vessels 28 initiated transportation. But the speed of transportation improved only 29 slightly over the centuries.Inventors produced the first engine- 30 powered vehicles during the late 1700’s and the early 1800’s. This development marked the beginning of a revolution in transportation that has continued to the present.16. A. highlights B. pinpoints C. headquarters D. centers17.
