why nobody answers my questions for following RC?

      In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries,

many Western Pueblo settlements

in what is now the southwestern United

Line     States may have possessed distinctly

(5)        hierarchical organizational structures.
            These communities’ agricultural
            systems— which were “intensive” in
            the use of labor rather than “extensive”
            in area— may have given rise to polit-

(10)      ical leadership that managed both

            labor and food resources. That for­mal

            management of food resources

            was needed is suggested by the

            large size of storage spaces located

(15)      around some communal Great Kivas

            (underground ceremonial chambers).

            Though no direct evidence exists that

            such spaces were used to store food,

            Western Pueblo communities lacking

(20)      sufficient arable land to support their

            populations could have preserved

            the necessary extra food, including

            imported foodstuffs, in such appar­ently

            communal spaces.

(25)            Moreover, evidence of special­ization

            in producing raw materials and

            in manufacturing ceramics and textiles

            indicates differentiation of labor within

            and between communities. The orga-

(30)      nizational and managerial demands

            of such specialization strengthen

            the possibility that a decision-making

            elite existed, an elite whose control

                        overlabor, the use of community sur-

(35)      pluses, and the acquisition of imported

            goods would have led to a concen­tration

            of economic resources in their

            own hands. Evidence for differential

            distribution of wealth is found in buri-

(40)      als of the period:  some include large

            quantities of pottery, jewelry, and other

            artifacts, whereas others from the same

            sites lack any such materials.
Q4:
Which of the following, if true, woruld ost clearly undermine the author 's statment  in the last sentene of thepassage(line 38-43) regarding the distribution of wealth in thesettlements?
B.  Members of community with extensive agriultural systems are usually buried without their personal pocssessions.
D. Burial artifacts are often ritual objects associated with religiouspractice rath than being the deceased's personal possessions.
E.  The quality of burial artifacts varies depenidng on the site with which they are associated.
Why E, not D?

Q5:
According to the passage, which of the following is probably true of the storage spaces
mentioned in line 14?

      A. They were used by the community elite for storage of their own food supplies.

      B.   They served a ceremonial as well as a practical function.

C.  Their size is an indication of the wealth of the particular community to which they belonged.

D. Their existence proves that the community to which they belonged imported large amounts of food.

      E. They belonged to and were used by the community as a whole.

Suggested answer is B.

Question:

  why E is wrong ?   Thanks.

另外，我也简单看了，意译一下：

In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, many Western Pueblo settlements in what is now the southwestern United States may have possessed distinctly hierarchical organizational structures.
在14、15世纪，Pueblo定居者有等级制度。

These communities’ agricultural systems— which were “intensive” in the use of labor rather than “extensive” in area— may have given rise to political leadership that managed both labor and food resources.
其农业体系带来对劳务和食品进行管理的政治领导体制。

That for­mal management of food resources was needed is suggested by the large size of storage spaces located around some communal Great Kivas (underground ceremonial chambers).
大型的储藏室表明了对食物资源管理的需求。

Though no direct evidence exists that  such spaces were used to store food, Western Pueblo communities lacking sufficient arable land to support their populations could have preserved the necessary extra food, including imported foodstuffs, in such appar­ently communal spaces.
尽管没有直接证据表明这些空间是用来储存粮食的，但缺乏耕地可能使得他们需要存储粮食，包括进口粮食。

Moreover, evidence of special­ization in producing raw materials and in manufacturing ceramics and textiles indicates differentiation of labor within and between communities.
而且，有证据表明了劳动分工。

The organizational and managerial demands of such specialization strengthen the possibility that a decision-making elite existed, an elite whose control overlabor, the use of community surpluses, and the acquisition of imported goods would have led to a concen­tration of economic resources in their own hands.
组织和管理需要这种专业化。

Evidence for differential distribution of wealth is found in burials of the period:  some include large quantities of pottery, jewelry, and other artifacts, whereas others from the same sites lack any such materials.
埋葬品的数量显示了财富的不均分布。

对于问题Q4，我也认为E论及埋葬品质量的地区差异对其原文论点不构成削弱，而D则为他因削弱了。所以我也觉得D比E好些。:
Which of the following, if true, would most clearly undermine the author 's statement in the last sentence of the passage (line 38-43) regarding the distribution of wealth in the settlements?
B.  Members of community with extensive agricultural systems are usually buried without their personal possessions.
D. Burial artifacts are often ritual objects associated with religious practice rather than being the deceased's personal possessions.
E.  The quality of burial artifacts varies depending on the site with which they are associated.
Why E, not D?

对于Q5，我也觉得E好像更好些，B也没有太多道理。
According to the passage, which of the following is probably true of the storage spaces mentioned in line 14?
A. They were used by the community elite for storage of their own food supplies.
B. They served a ceremonial as well as a practical function.
C. Their size is an indication of the wealth of the particular community to which they belonged.
D. Their existence proves that the community to which they belonged imported large amounts of food.
E. They belonged to and were used by the community as a whole.
Suggested answer is B.why E is wrong ?  .

还是请大家帮忙看看吧。ETS的题目真是刁钻啊，选项的混淆性够大的。
