37、eam of scientists led by the universities of Bristol (UK) and Lyon (France) have discovered that the first humans significantly breastfed their infants (婴儿) for longer periods than their contemporary relatives. The results, published in the journal Science Advances, provide a first insight into the
38、practice of weaning (断奶)that remain otherwise unseen in the fossil record. The team sampled minute amounts from nearly 40 fossilized teeth of our South African fossil relatives, early Homo, Paranthropus robustus and Australopithecus africanus. They measured the proportions of their stable calcium is
39、otopes (同位素)in the tooth enamel(牙釉质), which are a function of the mother milk intake by infants. They show that early Homo offspring(后代) was breastfed in significant proportions until the age of around three to four years, which likely played a role in the apparition of traits that are specific to h

The development of such behavioral d
43、ifferences likely played major roles in the evolution of the members of human lineage, being associated for instance with size and structure of social groups, brain development. However, getting insights into these behavioral changes from fossils that are millions of years old is a challenge and, so
44、 far, little evidence allow discussing nursing practices in these fossil species. The findings stress the need for further exploration of calcium stables isotopes compositions in the fossil record in order to understand the co-evolution of weaning practices with other traits such as brain size or so

49、he more interesting lesson of our FaceApp fling (尽情玩乐)is what it tells us about our societyand our future lives. It turns out we are more interested in aging than we realized.

We rarely have a chance to plan for the future, with increasing time and financial pressures. Those pressures bring sacrifices that we may not always want to make: we can no longer afford to spend the time or the mone
