Read the passage below and answer the questions 1-5: In his book "Against the Grain: A Deep History of the Earliest States," published in August 2017, James C. Scott, a professor of political sciences at Yale, presents a plausible contender for the most important piece of technology in the history of man. It is a technology so old that it predates Homo sapiens and instead should be credited [গণিত] our ancestor Homo erectus. That technology is fire. We have used it in two crucial, defining ways. The first and the most obvious of these is cooking. As richard Wrangham has argued in his book "Catching Fire," our ability [গণিত] cook allows us [গণিত] extract more energy from the food we eat, and also [গণিত] eat a far wider range of foods. Our closest animal relative, the chimpanzee, has a colon three [গণিত] as large as ours, because its diet of raw food is so much harder [গণিত] digest. The extra caloric value we get from cooked food allowed us [গণিত] develop our big brains, which absorb roughly a fifth of the energy we consume, as opposed [গণিত] less than a tenth for most mammals [গণিত] brains. That difference is what has made us the dominant species on the planet. The other reason fire was central [গণিত] our history is less obvious [গণিত] contemporary eyes: we used it [গণিত] adapt the landscape around us [গণিত] our purposes. Hunter-gatherers would set fires as they moved, [গণিত] clear terrain and make it ready for fast-growing, prey-attracting new plants. They would also drive animals with fire. Q. The main focus of the passage is on
