Our first human ancestors were a rare species. They lived under precarious conditions, exposes to rigorous of the weather, to the hostility of the wild beasts, and to the dangerous of famine that could be caused by the drought. They possessed no weapon, they probably had not mastered the use of fire and if they had language of any sort, it must have consisted of no more than a few cries. Their one weapon in the struggle for existence was intelligence and intelligence at first was very far from being so powerful a weapon as it has become. The biological usefulness of intelligence consists largely in the possibility of transmitting experience. An animal may learn from another animal what it actually sees done, but it cannot learn through narrative, a man, when he has acquired language, can do so and therefore the intelligence of each individual can become the property of the whole tribe and each generation can hand on to the next a multitude of skills which would be beyond the power of any animal species to transmit.
Can any one solve these questions which is presents in this comprehension???
Questions:
1. Under what conditions did our ancestors live?
2. How would they possibly have expressed themselves?
3. What weapon did they use in their struggle for existence?
4. How can experience be transmitted without speech?
5. Suggest the suitable title of the passage?
