[size=1em]Q9:

The population of desert tortoises in Targland’s Red Desert has declined, partly because they are captured for sale as pets and partly because people riding all-terrain vehicles have damaged their habitat. Targland plans to halt this population decline by blocking the current access routes into the desert and announcing new regulations to allow access only on foot. Targland’s officials predict that these measures will be adequate, since it is difficult to collect the tortoises without a vehicle.

[size=1em]

[size=1em]Which of the following would it be most important to establish in order to evaluate the officials’ prediction?

[size=1em]

a.Whether possessing the tortoises as pets remains legally permissible in Targland
b.Whether Targland is able to enforce the regulations with respect to all-terrain vehicle entry at points other than the current access routes
c.Whether the Red Desert tortoises are most active during the day or at night
d.Whether people who travel on foot in the Red Desert often encounter the tortoises
e.Whether the Targland authorities held public hearings before restricting entry by vehicle into the Red

看了很多解释这道题，但是他们都没有解释道我想听的，我就想问问b选项，大家都说意思是政府是否能够将新的规定实施在出当前路线以外的所有路线，我做的时候就没有读懂b选项的意思，加粗那里at points是什么意思呢，意思是除了现路线以外所有的地方么

Yes, enforce the regulations at points other than the current access routes.
"Other than", a parallelism maker, shows that "points" parallel with" the current access routes".
