第29至34題為題組 The earliest humans did not know how to count with numbers, and it 29 them thousands of years 29 this skill.

A set of symbols, called numerals, was invented to stand for the numbers. They were little 31 patterns 31 into wet clay. Although the Mesopotamian numerals are seldom seen today, the base-60 number system used by this ancient culture still exists now. Besides the Mesopotamian number system, several other civilizations also developed their own number systems. Egyptian numerals 32 little pictures, such as 32 of frogs and lotus flowers. Roman numerals like I, V, X, etc., can still be found on the face of clocks and on some official documents.

By 1500, this system 33 popular in Western Europe, and then it began to spread all over the world. We all count 34 numbers every day 34 countless numbers of ways. We should be thankful that now we don’t need stones to count things anymore!
