填空题A civilization's level of advancement can be judged to an astonishing degree of accuracy by examining what it does with its sewage. Prehistoric people either behaved much like animals by individually burying their excretions, or they placed their waste in foul-smelling communal pit toilets. Later on, rivers were used as receptacles for bodily refuse to wash the offal out to sea. By the Roman times, plumbing had been invented to bring the river to inland settlements--though wastewater still flowed back out into the same rivers that might elsewhere be used for drinking. It is only in the modern age, at the pinnacle of human culture as achieved by western civilization, that we have developed systems for washing soiled water in treatment plants, where it can be chemically treated until it is safe to release back into the hydrosphere.

填空题The male/female gender binary dominates Western culture, yet it is far from universal. For example, in India you might encounter a "hijra"--a member of the third sex. They are considered neither man nor woman. Although many of them are physically male, traditionally they refer to themselves as female and dress appropriately. This third gender is referenced in the earliest available records from the Indian Subcontinent, and was an established presence in the Vedic culture. There is no equivalent of hijras in the contemporary Western conceptualization of gender.
