ISSUE：
99 "In any realm of life -- whether academic, social, business, or political -- the only way to succeed is to take a practical, rather than an idealistic, point of view. Pragmatic behavior guarantees survival, whereas idealistic views tend to be superceded by simpler, more immediate options."
在生活的各个领域，不管是学术、社交、商业或政治，要想成功，只能靠实际而并非理想化的观点。注重成效的行为确保了生存，而理想化的观点倾向于被更简单、更直接的观点取代。
ARGUMENT:
78.The following appeared in a letter to the editor of an archaeological magazine.
"Archaeologists excavated a cave that had been inhabited by prehistoric people for thousands of years. These people hunted wild animals, many of whose bones were found at levels corresponding to different times of habitation. Most of the bones at the oldest levels, over 40,000 years old,were from a deer species whose modern-day descendants are known to prefer woodland habitats, whereas most of the bones at more recent levels, dating from 30,000 to 10,000 years ago, were from a gazelle species whose modern-day descendants are known to prefer grasslands. We can thus conclude that the climate of the area changed dramatically between 40,000 and 30,000 years ago, causing the terrain to change from woodland to grassland."
考古学家发掘了一个由史前人类居住了上千年的洞穴。这些人类猎杀野生动物，这些动物的骨头在与不同居住时期相对应的不同地层被发现。大多数在超过40000年历史的最久远的地层发现的骨头是一种鹿的骨头，这种鹿的后代已知喜欢在林地生活;而在30000到10000年前的地层所发现的骨头是一种小羚羊的骨头，其后代喜欢在草原生活。我们可以因此得出结论，该地区的气候在40000到30000年前曾剧烈地变化，导致这一区域从林地变成了草原。
