TPO 14 Pastoralism in Ancient Inner Eurasia - 英檢

請教一下做過TPO 14的

Paragraph 4: Nomadism also subjects pastoralist communities to strict rules
of portability. If you are constantly on the move, you cannot afford to
accumulate large material surpluses. Such rules limit variations in
accumulated material goods between pastoralist households (though they may
also encourage a taste for portable goods of high value such as silks or
jewelry). So, by and large, nomadism implies a high degree of
self-sufficiency and inhibits the appearance of an extensive division of
labor. Inequalities of wealth and rank certainly exist, and have probably
existed in most pastoralist societies, but except in periods of military
conquest, they are normally too slight to generate the stable, hereditary
hierarchies that are usually implied by the use of the term class.
lnequalities of gender have also existed in pastoralist societies, but they
seem to have been softened by the absence of steep hierarchies of wealth in
most communities, and also by the requirement that women acquire most of the
skills of men, including, often, their military skills.

10 According to paragraph 4, all of the following are true of social
inequality in pastoralist societies EXCEPT:
○ It exists and has existed to some degree in most pastoral societies.
○ It is most marked during periods of military conquest.
○ It is expressed in the form of a rigid hierarchy based largely on heredity.
○ It is usually too insignificant to be discussed in terms of class
differences.
