在選項(D)和選項(E)中，theory之後的that子句是名詞子句表同位，所以同學毋須糾結在 theory這個字是否在文章內出現過，只要知道：選項D---文章主要目的是challenge "birds evolved form groungd-dwelling theropoond dinosaurs" 選項E---文章主要目的是對 "birds evolved form groungd-dwelling theropoond dinosaurs"的評論做回應以上由美加文教助教提供 ※ 引述《SagiCapri (Hello~)》之銘言： : 以下是GWD TN第三套閱讀第一篇原文， : 架構大概是： : 作者一開始先提出有許多證據顯示鳥類演化自恐龍， : 然而有些科學家並不相信這個說法。 : 接下來，作者先提出科學家的argument 1 並反駁； : 再提出科學家的argument 2 再反駁， : 最後提出科學家的argument 3 再攻擊。(結束) : Although many lines of evidence indicate that birds evolved from : ground-dwelling theropod dinosaurs, some scientists remain unconvinced. They : argue that theropods appeared too late to have given rise to birds, noting : that Archaeopteryx lithographic - the oldest known bird - appears in the : fossil record about 150 million years ago, whereas the fossil remains of : various nonavian maniraptor theropods - the closest known relatives of birds : - date only to about 115 million years ago. But investigators have now : uncovered bones that evidently belong to nonavian maniraptors dating to the : time of Archaeopteryx. In any case, failure to find fossils of a predicted : kind does not rule out their existence in an undiscovered deposit. Skeptics : also argue that the fused clavicles (the "wishbone") of birds differ from the : unfused clavicles of theropods. This objection was reasonable when only early : theropod clavicles had been discovered, but fossilized theropod clavicles : that look just like the wishbone of Archaeopteryx have now been unearthed. : Finally, some scientists argue that the complex lungs of birds could not have : evolved from theropod lungs, an assertion that cannot be supported or : falsified at the moment, because no fossil lungs are preserved in the : paleontological record. : 我的問題是第一題 : The primary purpose of the passage is to : A) compare the development of two hypotheses concerning the evolutionary : origin of birds : B) suggest revisions to the standard theory of the evolutionary history of : birds : C) evaluate the usefulness of fossil evidence in determining the : evolutionary history of birds : D) challenge the theory that birds evolved from ground-dwelling theropod : dinosaurs : E) respond to criticisms of the theory that birds evolved from : ground-dwelling theropod dinosaurs : 正解 E : 關於E(D)這兩個選項用到的"Theory"在文章中並沒有提到， : 沒有明指攻擊的argument是來自某個理論， : 且文章一開始也只有說"many lines of evidence indicate..." : 覺得怎麼也推不出Theory這個字 (還是我漏看了哪裡@@) : 所以對正確答案感到非常疑惑@@" -- ▅▅▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅▅ ▅ ▅▅ ▅▅▅ █ █ █ █▅ █▄█ ▄ █ █▄█ █ █ █ █▄ █◥▅ █ █▅ █ █ 美加文教 GMAT高分榜選擇美加～你也能成為實力堅強的GMAT神人! http://www.merica.com.tw/merica_highgoal-list.asp#AT -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 59.125.176.238
