The Professor looks forward confidently to revolutionising the present food system. Now this kind of thing may be all very well in its way, but it is going to have its drawbacks as well. In the bright future anticipated by Professor Plumb, we can easily imagine such incidents as the following: The smiling family were gathered round the hospitable board. The table was plenteously laid with a soup-plate in front of each beaming child, a bucket of hot water before the radiant mother, and at the head of the board the Christmas dinner of the happy home, warmly covered by a thimble and resting on a poker chip.

Other all animals communicate with a fixed【M7】______ repertoire of symbols, or with analogue variation like the mercury in a thermometer. But nothing appears to have the combinatorial rule system of【M8】______ human language, in which symbols are changed into an unlimited set of combinations, each with a determinate meaning. On the other hand, many other claims about human uniqueness, such like that humans were the only animals【M9】______ to use tools or to fabricate them, have turned into to be false.【M10】______
