Paragraph 1:　In seeking to describe the origins of theater, one must rely
primarily on speculation, since there is little concrete evidence on which to
draw. The most widely accepted theory, championed by anthropologists in the
late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, envisions theater as emerging
out of myth and ritual. The process perceived by these anthropologists may be
summarized briefly. During the early stages of its development, a society
becomes aware of forces that appear to influence or control its food supply and
well-being. Having little understanding of natural causes, it attributes both
desirable and undesirable occurrences to supernatural or magical forces, and it
searches for means to win the favor of these forces. Perceiving an apparent
connection between certain actions performed by the group and the result it
desires, the group repeats, refines and formalizes those actions into fixed
ceremonies, or rituals.

第一題，如果用文意解釋，是因為theory不會由數個橫跨數十年的學者created，
這樣makes sense嗎?
