From this passage, we may conclude that Australopithecines are ______.
A．ape-like creatures
B．inhabitants of Australia
C．brutal and powerful
D．smaller than humans
参考答案
正确答案：A
解析：根据这篇短文，我们可以断定Australopithecines是像猿一样的动物。在第二段倒数第二句Australopithecines和apes并列，由此可以猜测它的意思与ape(猿)的意思相近。据陆谷孙主编的《英汉大词典》(p.106)，Australopithecine意为“南方古猿”。
