- In an area near Paris, cave drawings were discovered that researchers believe date back to the Neolithic era.
- The cave drawings not only depict various animals such as aurochs and horses, but also showcase detailed depictions of local plants and celestial patterns.
- The prevailing theory is that these markings were created by the hunter-gatherer communities in the area.
- Because of the advanced artistic style and complexity, some researchers now believe that these communities were more advanced than previously thought.
Choice A is the best answer. The sentence presents both the study and its findings, noting the information about the cave drawings, what some researchers initially believed about hunter-gatherers, and describing the study's finding about the hunter-gatherers being more advanced than previously thought.
Choice B: This sentence merely gives information about the hunter-gatherer communities in Paris, thus failing to present the study and its conclusion.
Choice C: This sentence provides information about the cave drawings themselves, thus failing to present the study and its conclusion.
Choice D: This sentence merely mentions the researchers' hypothesis about the time period in which the cave drawings were made, without presenting the study or its conclusion.
