　　TPO 55 passage 1
　　Paragraph 4
　　Mesolithic cultures are much less well-defined elsewhere in Europe, partly because the climatic changes were less extreme than in southern Scandinavia and because there were fewer opportunities for coastal adaptation. In much of central Europe, settlement was confined to lakeside and riverside locations, widely separated from one another by dense forests. Many Mesolithic lakeside sites were located in transitional zones between different environments so that the inhabitants could return to a central base location, where for much of the year they lived close to predictable resources such as lake fish. However, they would exploit both forest game and other seasonal resources from satellite camps. For example, the archaeologist Michael Jochim believes that some groUPS lived during most of the year in camps along the Danube River in central Europe, moving to summer encampments on the shores of neighboring lakes. In areas like Spain, there appears to have been intensified exploitation of marine and forest resources. There was a trend nearly everywhere toward greater variety in the diet, with more attention being paid to less obvious foods and to those that require more complex processing methods than do game and other such resources.
　　Paragraph 4:
　　8. The phrase “confined to” in the passage is closest in meaning to
　　○ adapted to.
　　○ limited to.
　　○ expanded to.
　　○ located next to.
　　9. Select the TWO answer choices that are discussed in paragraph 4 as factors that explain why Mesolithic culture in Scandinavia developed differently from Mesolithic cultures in other parts of Europe. To receive credit, you must choose TWO answers from the answer choices.
　　○ Climate.
　　○ Population numbers.
　　○ The size of satellite camps.
　　○ The location of sites of human habitation.
　　10. The author includes the views of Michael Jochim for which of the following reasons?
　　○ To show that Mesolithic cultures in other parts of Europe were less well- defined than Mesolithic cultures in southern Scandinavia.
　　○ To help explain why it became necessary for Mesolithic populations to pay more attention to less obvious foods and foods requiring more complex processing.
　　○ To provide evidence that opportunities for coastal development were generally much greater in Central Europe than elsewhere in Europe
　　○ To support the idea that populations in Central Europe stayed in a central location much of the year but relocated to be closer to seasonal resources.
