原文相关部分:
White observes that
Martin’s thesis depends on coinciding
dates for the arrival of humans and the
decline of large animal species, and
Krech, though aware that the dates
(35) are controversial, does not challenge
them; yet recent archaeological
discoveries are providing evidence
that the date of human arrival was
much earlier than 11,000 years ago.
问题Q7:
In the last sentence of the passage, the author refers to “recent archaeological discoveries” (lines 36-37) most probably in order to
A. refute White’s suggestion that neither Maritn nor Krech adequately account for Paleoindians’ contributions to the Pleistocene extinctions
B. cast doubt on the possibility that a more definitive theory regarding the causes of the Pleistocene extinctions may be forthcoming
C. suggest that Martin’s, Krech’s, and White’s theories regarding the Pleistocene extinctions are all open to question
D. call attention to the most controversial aspect of all the current theories regarding the Pleistocene extinctions
E. provide support for White’s questioning of both Martin’s and Krech’s positions regarding the role of Paleoindians in the Pleistocene extinctions
