D is inferior to A for two reasons
1: yet discovered ( this part was eliminated in choice D)
then choice D conveys a different meaning that fossils of feathered dinosaurs will offer the most dramatic one without being challenged by any subsequently found evidence ( the change of meaning is unacceptable)
2. offer vs have offer
the previous one is used to describe sth that does not restrict to any time-frame ( a timeless fact)
here means that the evidence will continue to provide this evidence for ever
the latter one is somewhat suggesting that the evidence will be invalid in the future time-frame
the original meaning is fine, you cannot change it without any justifications-- by 会员 DUKB24 (2012/10/28 20:14:07)
