China discovers landmark human evolution fossils
Passage 1
Chinese 1. (science) have discovered dozens of human fossils dating 2. 300,000 years, 3. are the earliest ones found in East Asia 4. terms of the evolution process towards Homo sapiens, the species 5. which all modern human beings belong.
The human fossils, along 6. a large number of fossilized animal bones and stone tools, have been unearthed (挖掘) at the Hualongdong site in Dongzhi county, East China's Anhui province.Chinese researchers reported their 7. (late) discoveries and studies 8. (concern) the Hualongdong ancient human site at an 9. (academy) conference held in Dongzhi county from Friday to Sunday this week. Nearly 100 researchers and scholars, including over a dozen international experts, 10. (attend) the event.
Passage 2
1. (discovery) in late 1988, the Hualongdong site 2. (yield) remarkable finds during continuous excavations since 2013. Approximately 20 individual ancient human fossils, including a 3. (relative) complete skull, over 400 stone artifacts, numerous bone fragments with 4. (evident) of artificial cutting and 5. (chop), and more than 80 vertebrate fossils have been unearthed at this site.
From April to November 2024, an archaeological team 6. (conduct) a new round of excavations, 7. (cover) an area of 40 square meters. A total of 11 human fossils were unearthed, including one well-preserved foot metatarsal bone, one 8. (break) frontal bone, one middle femur fragment and eight skull fragments.
Wu Xiujie, a researcher at the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences , and 9. (lead) of the Hualongdong excavation team, said these discoveries show 10. a large family of more than 20 individuals lived at the site.
Passage 3
"They had a 'dining hall' where they cut, 1. (chop) and processed food. A karst cave was probably their bedroom for 2. (hide) from wild beasts at night, but it 3. (collapse), and we have not yet excavated it. We hope 4. (discovery) more fossils in the future," Wu added. She also explained that the human fossils at Huanlongdong belong 5. ancient humans 6. physical characteristics between the Homo erectus and modern human stages -- which is unlike any other premodern human fossil ever found.
A skull fossil unearthed in 2015 is one of the most important discoveries made at Hualongdong to date. Researchers 7. (infer) that the skull belonged to a girl of 13 8. 14 years old.
"The fossil displays a unique blend of primitive and modern characteristics," Wu noted. "The 9. (face) structure and mandible show early evolution toward modern humans, including a flat face, high eye sockets, slender skull, and a jawbone that displays the early development of a chin -- a 10. (define) feature of modern humans."
Passage 4
"She already looked very similar 1. us, 2. still retained some ancient features," Wu said.
The foot metatarsal bone found this year is the only one unearthed in China, and it could provide important information in studying both 3. the ancients walked and their 4. (high), Wu said.
In 5. (add), the finely crafted stone tools found at Hualongdong show the relatively high technical level of the Hualongdong cave people 300,000 years ago. They were very intelligent, and 6. (evolve) towards the stage of Homo sapiens, according to Wu.
"The Hualongdong humans were the earliest ancient humans in East Asia who exhibited the most characteristics of Homo sapiens, and were 7. a key turning point in the evolution 8. ancient humans towards modern humans. The Hualongdong site will provide a wealth of information on how modern humans evolved," said Liu Wu, 9. researcher with the IVPP, who 10. (conduct) excavations at the site for more than a decade.

中国科学家发现了几十块30万年前的人类化石，这是在东亚发现的最早的智人进化过程的化石，智人是所有现代人类所属的物种。
这些人类化石，以及大量动物骨骼和石器化石，在中国东部安徽省东至县的华龙洞遗址出土。
本周五至周日在东至县举行的学术会议上，中国研究人员报告了他们关于华龙洞古人类遗址的最新发现和研究。包括十多位国际专家在内的近100名研究人员和学者参加了此次活动。
参考答案2

华龙洞遗址于1988年底被发现，自2013年以来，在持续的挖掘中取得了令人瞩目的发现。在这里出土了大约20块古人类化石，包括一个相对完整的头骨，400多件石器制品，大量有人工切割和切割证据的骨头碎片，以及80多块脊椎动物化石。
从2024年4月到11月，一个考古小组进行了新一轮的挖掘，面积为40平方米。总共出土了11块人类化石，包括一块保存完好的足跖骨、一块破碎的额骨、一块股骨中部碎片和8块头骨碎片。
中国科学院古脊椎动物与古人类研究所（IVPP）研究员、华龙洞发掘队队长吴秀杰表示，这些发现表明，这个地方生活着一个由20多人组成的大家庭。
参考答案3
1.chopped 2.hiding 3.has collapsed 4.to discover 5.to

参考译文3
“他们有一个‘食堂’，在那里他们切割、切碎和加工食品。一个喀斯特洞穴可能是他们晚上躲避野兽的卧室，但它已经倒塌了，我们还没有挖掘出来。我们希望将来能发现更多的化石。”
她还解释说，华龙洞的人类化石属于古人类，其身体特征介于直立人和现代人之间，这与迄今为止发现的任何前现代人类化石都不同。
2015年出土的头骨化石是迄今为止华龙洞最重要的发现之一。研究人员推断，这个头骨属于一个13岁或14岁的女孩。
“化石显示了原始和现代特征的独特融合，”吴说。“面部结构和下颌骨显示了向现代人的早期进化，包括扁平的脸、高眼窝、细长的头骨，以及显示下巴早期发育的颚骨——这是现代人的一个决定性特征。”
参考答案4
1.to 2.but 3.how 4.height 5.addition
6.had evolved 7.at 8.from 9.another 10.has conducted
参考译文4
“她看起来已经和我们很像了，但仍然保留了一些古老的特征，”吴说。
今年发现的跖骨是中国唯一出土的跖骨，它可以为研究古人如何行走和他们的身高提供重要信息，吴说。
此外，在华龙洞发现的制作精美的石器表明，30万年前华龙洞人的技术水平相对较高。他们非常聪明，已经进化到智人的阶段。
“华龙洞人是东亚最早的古人类，表现出最多的智人特征，处于古人类向现代人进化的关键转折点。华龙洞遗址将为现代人类如何进化提供丰富的信息，”IVPP的另一位研究员刘武说，他在该遗址进行了十多年的挖掘工作。
