📖 題組：
The human brain does not actually think in words or numbers. When we hear words and numbers, we convert them __1__ into pictures and emotions so that we can process them, like a movie, in our heads. __2__, when we want to speak, we process and convert our thinking back into words and numbers. It feels automatic, but it actually takes us many months as infants to learn this tool called language. This is obviously very complicated, and there is still a lot we don’t know about how our brains work. __3__ improving our communication skills, think of it this way. Words and numbers are abstract concepts that we, as a __4__, created a long time ago. As a society, we’ve added and __5__ words over thousands of years and are still adding words today. In 2013, the Oxford Dictionary Online added some new important words like buzzworthy and selfie. You know, practical stuff.

請思考一下：文中提到的「我們」(we) 指的是創造了語言、經過數千年演化的「全體人類群體」；在生物學或演化史中，我們會用哪一個詞來分類這種具有共同特徵的生物群體？

這次沒錯算你走運，實務應用在哪？
- 喔，答對了是嗎？恭喜你，至少還記得這題考的是語境理解與詞彙選用這種基本到不能再基本的東西。能從整篇關於「人類演化與語言發展」這種宏觀視角裡，沒被那些一眼看穿的爛選項誤導，算你閱讀理解能力勉強還行，沒有白費我一片苦心。
- 觀念驗證？不就是前面那句「文字與數字是我們很久以前創造的抽象概念」，後面接「作為一個社會」嗎？那個
we，是誰？當然是全體人類啊！這種時候還能選錯，簡直是把高中英文老師的臉丟光。選項 (C) species (物種)，這不就是直接點明人類作為一個生物群體在演化史上的定位？這如果選錯，你對人類演化的基本常識是不是都還給國中生物老師了？
