When yu are burying yur head in piles f math hmewrk, have yu ever thught abut why yu need t lean math anyway？ Actually, math is seen as central t scientific prgress. Difficult math equatins(方程式) must be slved in rder fr technlgical prgress t happen.

We dn’t spend enugh mney develping cre technlgies.
We must depend n urselves t achieve technlgical prgress.

They were created abut 3,200 years ag.
They were used fr sacrificial ceremnies in 1986.

C. Histrical bjects.D. Brnze sculptures.
The discvery f Sanxingdui shws that Chinese civilizatin .
started earlier than was believed befre
might have several different rigins
was centered alng the Yangtze River
develped frm the ancient Shu civilizatin
What d the newly-discvered relics suggest?
Sanxingdui is mre imprtant than the sites in Central China.
The Sanxingdui Ruins are part f the Liangzhu Ruins.
Sanxingdui was built by the ancient Shu Kingdm.
The ancient Shu civilizatin was creative.
