【Q25】

Yet despite the considerable overlap

between Wegener’s concepts and the

(25)     later widely embraced plate tectonics

theory, and despite the fact that conti-

nental drift theory presented a possible

solution to the problem of the origin of

mountains at a time when existing expla-

(30)     nations were seriously in doubt, in its

day Wegener’s theory was rejected

by the vast majority of geologists.

We can tell from the above statement that the continental drift theory might be a good theory, but it was not convinced people. In short, it is suprising that this theory was not accepted by geologist in his time.

【Q26】  

Wegener’s theory to have

been validated by the theory of plate

(50)     tectonics―is the nature of the evidence

that was put forward to support it.

I think choice E is the best.
