9. Paleontologists have discovered fossils of centipedes that are 414 million years older than the earliest land-dwelling animals previously identified. The paleontologists are confident that these centipedes were discovered in rock that also contained fossilized remained of animals known to be water-dwelling.

The paleontologists's view would be LEAST

(A) The legs of the fossilized centipedes were particularly suited to being a means of locomotion on land.

(B) All of the centipedes that had previously been discovered were land dwellers.

(C) The rock in which the fossilized centipedes were found was formed from mud flats that were occasionally covered by river water.

(D) Fossils of the earliest land-dwelling animals that had previously been identified were found in rock that did not contain fossilized remains of water-dwelling animals.

(E) Fossils of spiders with respiratory systems adapted only to breathing air were found in the same rock as the centipede fossils.

这道题问的least到底是什么意思呢？是说古生物学家的观点最不可能是什么吗？答案又为什么是D呢，想不太明白。烦大牛们帮帮忙啊！！！多谢！

哈哈！我也刚做到这个section. 大家一起来讨论一下吧。我的理解是：古生物学家的观点至少被下面哪一个选项所支持？哈哈

D.最早发现的陆居动物化石的岩石中并未包含海居动物的化石。字少支持了这个蜈蚣是陆居的可能性所以是Least support.
