【正文】 h in Norfolk, in eastern Britain. They may be about 500,000 years older than the earliest footprints previously found in the country. The 3D images and a model of one of the imprints(印跡 ) were unveiled on Friday at a news conference at the British Museum, in London. The museum’s archeologist Nick Ashton described the moment last May when he realized the footprints were left by a prehistoric man. “It was only when the overhead views were ed through to me back in my office that I suddenly looked at it and opened up the file and I thought, “This is absolutely amazing. You know, there is no doubt that they really are human footprints,” he said. Nick said the new discovery will alter the understanding of early human history in Europe. Liverpool John Moores University researcher Isabelle de Groote analysed the prints. “ The spread of the footprint size gives us an indication that we have children, a number of children and then probably some adults there with at least one, probably one male,” she said. It is not known how the early humans survived in the cold environment of ancient northern Europe. Scientists say a million years ago, Britain was joined to continental Europe and they believe that the individuals who left the footprints were related to Homo sapiens’ ancestors called the Pioneer Man, known to have inhabited in a warmer climate. 12.

However, 15% of the students believe that it is no use going to college because it’s extremely difficult for college graduates to get satisfactory jobs. In addition, the tuition is too high for their families to pay for. The remaining 10% held the view that “All roads lead to Rome”. Therefore, they think it doesn’t make any difference whether they go to college or not. In my opinion, it’s a better choice to go to college because we can receive much more education. But if we are unable to enter college, there are many other choices for us, and we can still contribute to the society. Yours sincerely, Li Hua
