Hominids

基本解釋

That proved bipedalism did not evolve on the savannah, but since hair does not fossilise, it is hard to establish when the hominids began to lose it.
這證明，兩足動(dòng)物的演化史并不是在大草原上進(jìn)行的。但是，由于毛發(fā)不會(huì)變成化石，因此很難確定原始人類在什么時(shí)候開(kāi)始失去毛發(fā)。
Hominids are all the Neanderthals, australopithecines, Homo habili, Homo erecti, etc., the upright-walking apes of which we are the only surviving species.
原始人類是指所有的穴居人，古猿，智人，直立行走的類人猿等，而我們是唯一幸存的類人猿物種。
But she did not explain why the equally sweaty patas monkey did not lose its hair in the same environment, nor how the hominids could have drunk so much in a hot, dry landscape.
但她無(wú)法解釋為什么在相同環(huán)境中流汗量相當(dāng)?shù)某嗪飬s未失去體毛，以及原始人類在炎熱、干燥的環(huán)境中是怎么喝下如此多的水的。

This suggests that hominids may have had the potential to speak for quite some time.
