标题: gwd-1-17的b选项如何解释?

The spacing of the four holes on a fragment of a bone flute excavated at a Neanderthal campsite is just what is required to play the third through sixth notes of the diatonic scale—the seven-note musical scale used in much of Western music since the Renaissance. Musicologists therefore hypothesize that the diatonic musical scale was developed and used thousands of years before it was adopted by Western musicians.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the hypothesis?

No musical instrument that is known to have used a diatomic scale is of an earlier date than the flute found at the Neanderthal campsite
The cave-bear leg bone used to make the Neanderthal flute would have been long enough to make a flute capable of playing a complete diatonic scale.

这道题的答案是e，这个我选对了，但是看到论坛上大家对b选项的讨论解释各异。我想请问一下，我这样的解释是否正确。

我认为B错的原因在于：在n洞里边找到的笛子只有四个音所以不能确定它是否能奏出七个全音阶。所以，如果这个笛子不能奏全音阶的话那么无法确定到底什么时候能奏全音阶的乐器出现了。

看到的讨论说b选项错的原因是：n洞的时代不能确定离西方音乐家使用全音阶的时代相隔几千年。我觉得如果这个说法成立，那么e也不能成立了。这个n洞的时代和西方音乐家使用全音阶的时代相隔几千年应该是默认前提。

不知道我这样理解对不对，欢迎大家发表一下你对这个选项的理解，谢谢~

The cave-bear leg bone used to make the Neanderthal flute would have been long enough to make a flute capable of playing a complete diatonic scale.

This choice strength the argument by confirming that the bone excavated are indeed used for purpose of music instrument other than left debris of ancient bear.

Without looking at answer E I would choose B since it presents evidence supporting the hypothesis.
