标题: OGpassage45,270

这两天一直在按小安的方法总结RC，但是这道题没找着原文的定位点，请大家帮忙点拨一下，多谢！

Maps made by non-Native Americans to depict Native American land tenure, resources and population distributions appeared almost as early as Europeans’ first encounters with Native Americans and took many form: missionaries’ field sketches, explorers’ drawings, and surveyors’ maps, as well as maps rendered in connection with treaties involving land transfers. Most existing maps of Native American lands are reconstructions that are based largely on archaeology, oral reports, and evidence gathered from observers’ accounts in letter, diaries, and official reports; accordingly, the accuracy of these maps is especially dependent on the mapmakers’ own interpretive abilities.

Many existing maps also reflect the 150-year role of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) in

administering tribal lands. Though these maps incorporate some information gleaned directly from Native Americans, rarely has Native American cartography contributed to this official record, which has been compiled, surveyed, and authenticated by non-Native American tribes and their migrations and cultural features, as well as territoriality and contemporary trust lands, reflects the origins of the data, the mixed purposes for which the maps have been prepared, and changes both in United States government policy and in non-Native Americans’ attitudes toward an understanding of Native Americans.

270. The passage suggests which of the following about most existing maps of Native Americanlands?

(A) They do not record the migrations of Native American tribes.

(B) They have been preserved primarily because of their connection with treaties involving

land transfers.

(D)They tend to be less accurate when they are based on oral reports than when they are

based on written documents.

(E) They are not based primarily on the mapmakers’ firsthand oberservations of Native

American lands.

OG的解释说choice A is not correct because the passage mentions the "current cartographic record relating to Native American tribes and their migrations" 可是我在原文没找着这句啊？我只找到这句了“rarely has Native American cartography contributed to this official record, which has been compiled, surveyed, and authenticated by non-Native American tribes and their migrations and cultural features”

Though these maps incorporate some information gleaned directly from Native Americans, rarely has Native American cartography contributed to this official record, which has been compiled, surveyed, and authenticated by non-Native American. Thus our current cartographic record (cartographic record: 制图资料) relating to Native American tribes and their migrations and cultural features, as well as territoriality and contemporary trust lands, reflects the origins of the data, the mixed purposes for which the maps have been prepared, and changes both in United States government policy and in non-Native Americans’ attitudes toward an understanding of Native Americans.

谢谢fair_sword GG，原来我的OG上就少这句话！“rarely has Native American cartography contributed to this official record, which has been compiled, surveyed, and authenticated by non-Native American tribes and their migrations and cultural features”这是我的OG，下面这个是你的“non-Native American. Thus our current cartographic record (cartographic record: 制图资料) relating to Native American tribes and their migrations and cultural features,”。看我的变成了non-Native American tribes了，所以要没有你的指点，我是弄死也不知道错哪儿了！

再请问fair_sword GG，哪里能找到比较全的OG呢？我DOWN的OG里面第43篇就是那个CAMEL的也不全。btw，我的OG就是在CD DOWN的。

OG的部分解释是：

Choice E is the best answer. The passage points out that most existing maps are based on second-hand information and that their accuracy is largely dependent on the map-makers’ ability to interpret that information. Thus it can be inferred that most of these maps are not based on firsthand observations by the mapmakers.

我的问题是原题哪里有second-hand information字样了？point out的意思是“指出”，意思是原题中出现的。

另,我认为此题对应的答案句为

Most existing maps of Native American lands are reconstructions that are based largely on archaeology, oral reports, and evidence gathered from observers’ accounts in letter, diaries, and official reports;

是否高亮部分即为second-hand information? 还是答案在其他部分？请指点，谢谢！
