Because of their sheer physical strength, some animals, either harness or pack animals, were used to move objects around. Harness animals included oxen pulling ploughs or elephants hauling logs out of forests, while pack animals, such as llamas, horses and reindeer, carried heavy loads on their backs.  \n2 Early humans hunted the hairy mammoths, bears, deer and other animals that shared their environment, and at some point learned how to use the thick, furry hides from these animals to keep themselves warm and dry. With this discovery, clothing developed and was later improved by the invention of needles made from slivers of animal bones. From very early times, people hunted animals for food; a breakthrough came when people domesticated a wide range of animals, such as goats and sheep, to raise them, rather than hunt them, for food. Animals have a long history of being useful in the hunting of other animals; for example the domestic cat is one of the oldest working animals, having protected food supplies from pests since the foundation of human agriculture, and tamed cheetahs have been used by humans to chase down prey for food.  \n5  \n10  \n15  \n20  \n25  \n30  \n3 In ancient times, animals had a role to play in  \nwarfare, and records exist showing that horses pulled wagons in battle some 5000 years  \nago, and later carried armed soldiers on the battlefield. Elephants were used to charge the enemy and the psychological effect of these huge beasts, used by civilisations such as those of the Persians and the Carthaginians, cannot be underestimated. Sacrificing animals to a god or gods was an integral part of most religions; animals were offered as tributes to please or placate these deities, or to give thanks for their kindness in, for example, the safe birth  \nof a child. Animals were used in sports in early civilisations. The ancient Greeks and Romans used horses for chariot races, and animals featured in many kinds of sporting activities, such as horse jumping, polo and even camel racing.  \n4 While such sporting activities still occur, in our own time animals are also used for educational purposes, such as allowing people to view, through trips to zoos or safari parks, animals which they would otherwise be unlikely ever to see in their natural habitat. Entertainment is provided by going to see animals, like lions and elephants, performing in circuses, although using animals solely for entertainment is definitely cruel and unnatural.  \n5 Some animals have extraordinarily heightened senses. Horses can be trained to search for people lost or trapped in dangerous terrain, using their keen hearing, smell and vision; the horse’s behaviour will indicate it has noted something unusual, thus alerting the  \n35  \n40  \n45  \n50  \n55  \n60  \n65  \nrider to a useful clue to the missing person’s whereabouts. For centuries there have been accounts of animals behaving bizarrely before earthquakes. Now, for the first time, scientists have filmed the behaviour of wild animals prior to a quake, finding that animals in Peru, such as pumas, ran for cover days before the earthquake took place. This important study could help improve short-term forecasting of earthquakes.  \n6 In the fight against crime, some animals can be trained to sniff out drugs and explosives, perhaps the most surprising of these being rats, which can be cheaply trained within two weeks, a system which has been pionee","cbCaioLDy3hTMZgM","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioLDy3hTMZgM","pdf",2316267,"English","# PASSAGE 1\n## People and Animals\n# PASSAGE 2\n## Nizam","[{\"question\":\"What does the insert contain for candidates in Paper 2 Reading?\",\"answer\":\"It contains two reading passages, “People and Animals” and “Nizam.”\"},{\"question\":\"Which topics does Passage 1 “People and Animals” cover?\",\"answer\":\"It covers animals’ roles in transport, clothing and domestication, warfare and religion, sports and entertainment, education, heightened senses, earthquake-related behaviour, crime detection, scientific testing, and therapy.\"},{\"question\":\"What challenge does Nizam face at the start of Passage 2?\",\"answer\":\"He must produce a topic for the school’s annual story-writing competition, but he cannot think of what to write.\"}]","1123/22 ENGLISH LANGUAGE - Paper 2 Reading - Insert - May/June 2018 | PDF",1792721903]
