Excavation of the ancient city of Kourion on the island of Cyprus revealed a pattern of debris and collapsed buildings typical of towns devastated by earthquakes. Archaeologists have hypothesized that the destruction was due to a major earthquake known to have occurred near the island in A.D. 365.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the archaeologists' hypothesis?
(A) Bronze ceremonial drinking vessels that are often found in graves dating from years preceding and following A.D. 365 were also found in several graves near Kourion. (B) No coins minted after A.D. 365 were found in Kourion, but coins minted before that year were found in abundance. (C) Most modern histories of Cyprus mention that an earthquake occurred near the island in A.D. 365. (D) Several small statues carved in styles current in Cyprus in the century between A.D. 300 and 400 were found in Kourion. (E) Stone inscriptions in a form of the Greek alphabet that was definitely used in Cyprus after A.D. 365 were found in Kourion. C是不是因为most而不能充分strengthen,由现代历史来解释这种思路本身应该是对的吧？？求助，谢谢！！作者: naoyixue 时间: 2012-4-29 22:44
在对于位于C的一个岛上的古城的考古，人们发现了很多种类的残骸和一些由于地震而坍塌的建筑物。 考古学家已经假设这些破坏是主要由于在AD 365时候在小岛附近发生的地震而导致的。 下面哪个，能更加加强考古学家的加设？ （ 其实就是加强考古学家因为xxx原因而加设的那个原因，就是due to.....的内容）加强的确在AD 365 发生过地震就好了。 1：铜质的酒器在AD365前后都有发现，在一些K的墓地附近 （AD365前后一样，没有说明地震，因为有地震，那么地震前的东西应该被推倒，不存在） 2：没有发现在AD365后被铸的币，但是那些在AD365被铸的币被发现很多(AD365前后不一样，可以证明AD365存在地震，AD365后所有都被灰飞烟灭了，所以不再有铸币，即AD365后的币不能存在了） 3：很多现在的历史提及有一次地震在AD365 (诉诸于权威，gmat相信事实，某某人说的大多不可靠）某某新闻说，现在大家安居乐业，CPI落后于工资上升速度，你能相信吗？反正我信了 4：在C，且在时间AD300和AD400之间的雕像被发现在K. (粗看不能确定在AD365这个点上，因为文中是一段时间，但是想想其实不能说明地震，说不定是其他方式运到k的，或者手艺流传，这个揣测太多了，总之，不能说明那个AD365的时间点有地震） 5：石头文字按照那些最后被确认运用在AD365后的希腊字母被发现在K.
