问题     Human beings in all times and places think about their world
and wonder at their place in it. Humans are thoughtful and
creative, possessing of insatiable curiosity. Furthermore, humans 【M1】______
have the ability to modify the environment where they live in, 【M2】______
thus subjecting all other life forms to their own peculiar ideas and
fancies. Therefore, it is important to study humans in all their
richness and diversity of a calm and systematic manner, with the 【M3】______
hope of the knowledge resulting from such studies can lead 【M4】______
humans to a more harmonious way of living with them and with 【M5】______
all other life forms on this planet Earth. Anthropology is a branch
of intellectual enquiry which seeks to study humans and their
endeavors in the same reasoned, orderly, and systematic manners 【M6】______
that natural scientists use for the study of natural phenomena.
Anthropology makes extensive use of the comparative method in
analysis. The emphasis on datas gathered firsthand, combined 【M7】______
with a cross-cultural perspective brought to the analysis of
cultures past and present, make this study a unique and distinctly 【M8】______
important social science. Anthropological analyses rest heavily
upon the concept of culture. Sir Edward Tylor’s formulation of the
conception of culture was one of the great intellectual 【M9】______
achievements of 19th century science. Tylor defined culture as
"... that complex whole which includes belief, art, morals, law,
customs, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as 【M10】______
a member of society." Implicit within Tylor’s definition is the
concept that culture is learned, shared, and patterned behavior.
【M10】
