14、cause she was a woman doctor, which was pretty rare in the 1950s.

Youre living on the only exception to that rule.The word “earth” has roots in the Old English term “eore”.
22、 Eore had multiple meanings like “soil”, “dirt”, “ground”, “dry land” and “country”. Yet the story didnt begin there. Old English is the earliest known stage of what became our modern English tongue. Used until about 1150 C.E., it evolved from a parent language that scholars call “Proto-Germanic”. T
23、he German thats spoken today is part of the same linguistic family. “Earth” and “eore” are therefore related to the modem German word “Erde”. Not only is this the German languages name fox our home planet, but it can also be used to refer to dirt and soil.Our dear Each has relatives in some other la
24、nguages, too, For example, theres the Old Saxon “ertha”, the Old Frisian “erthre” and the Dutch word “aarde”. All these likely originate from a Proto-Germanic term that was never recorded. Nevertheless, linguists have been able to go back and reconstruct this mystery word. Spelled “ertho” in scholar
25、ly texts, its always marked by an asterisk (星号). This asterisk acknowledges the lack of written confirmation that the word was really used.Nobody knows when people started using words like “Earth” or “Erde” to refer to the planet as a whole and not just the ground they walked on. Back in 1783, Germa
26、n astronomer Johann Elert Bode named the seventh planet from our sun “Uranus” (after a Greek god). And though Pluto is no longer considered a planet, we know that 11-year-old Venetia Burney named it in 1930. But if a single person gave planet Earth its English name, his or her identity has been lost
27、 to the sands of time.Still, its clear that while Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune all started out as the proper names of ancient gods, “Earth” did not. Thats why our planet is sometimes called “the earth” with a lowercase (小写字母) “e”.28. Which language docs the word “Erde” b

30、 built using genetic data from thousands of modern and prehistoric people. The tree gives a view of 2 million years of prehistory and evolution.“Humans are all eventually related to each other,” says Gil McVean at the University of Oxford. “What Ive long wanted to do is to be able to represent the t
31、otality of what we can learn about human history through this genealogy.”Geneticists have been reading peoples entire genomes for the past two decades. McVean and his colleagues analyzed 3609 of these, almost all of which belonged to our species, Homo sapiens, except for three Neanderthals and one f
32、rom the Denisovan group, which may be a subspecies of Homo sapiens or a separate species.The team focused on bits of DNA that vary from person to person. They identified 6,412,717 variants (变体) and tried to figure out when and where each arose. To do this, they also looked at an extra 3589 samples o
33、f ancient DNA that werent good enough to include in the tree, but did cast light on when the variants arose.Variants that appeared before 2,000 years ago were most common in north-cast Africa, and the oldest 100 variants were also from there, specifically in what is now Sudan. Those oldest variants
34、are about 2 million years old, so long predate our species, which appeared around 300,000 years ago.The simplistic interpretation of this is that humanity first evolved in this region, but later migrations are likely to have interfered (干涉) with the data. The tree also offers clues that people reach
35、ed Papua New Guinea and the Americas tens of thousands of years earlier than the archaeological (考古的) record implies, hinting at migrations that have yet to be discovered. But both these ideas would need to be confirmed by archaeological finds.32. What can be expected of the biggest family tree?A. P
