LIFE DURING THE ICE AGE
During the Ice Age in Europe, approxim ately 15,000 years ago, the w in te r w eather was 
bleak. However, modern hum ans found ingenious methods fo r managing this extreme
cold. In fact, these humans (1 )________ been the firs t to develop a range of s k ills and
technological advances that are s till w ith us today! Due to the freezing tem peratures,
these hum ans (2 )________ create things that could protect them from the environm ent.
Early Europeans used the skin and bones from w ild anim als to make clothing and shelter.
Thankfully, they (3)________ w orry so much about th e ir food. They (4)_________ k ill th e ir
food effectively as they had developed sophisticated tools. When food was abundant, they 
buried supplies in the perm afrost; an ancient form of deep-freezing. The unfortunate thing 
about th e ir hunting and survival s kills was that they slaughtered many of the anim als to 
extinction. A ll we now have to rem em ber them by is the cave paintings. Perhaps it could be
argued that they (5)________ killed these animals, but we cannot say what we would have
done in the same situation.
Although life (6)________ been easy fo r these people, they managed to survive and
introduce art, language and behaviours that characterize people today; we owe a lot to 
th e ir developments.
