8*.建造temple
V1：一道讲了度量一个temple建造时间的新方法。第一段说，原先历史学家认为建造的span是250年，但是原始的居民传说在P这个人的领导下，社会开始了宗教XX。第二段说，历史学家们无法判断时间是因为没办法根据元素来追踪时间，dating techniques，但是最新发现了一种办法是根据coral来判断年份，是因为temple的墙上有些植物，包含的元素不同。不拉不拉不拉。最后判断出temple
的建造时间是
a singlegeneration。(此处有题，问你为什么作者最后一句话提到这个，我选了说用于表明结论和历史学家们认为的不同).建造temple，机经阅读汇总上的英文原文和考试文章高度相似，主要内容和主人公完全一样，只是行文略有不同。请千万重视。以下是机经阅读汇总上的英文原文：
Proto-historic Hawaiian temples on the island of Maui may have mushroomed up within just 30 years, not 250 as previously supposed, scientists say. The findings could significantly alter researchers' understanding of the pace of precontact sociopolitical change in the Pacific.
Hawaiian genealogies and oral histories hold that sometime around 1600 A.D. a ruler named Pi'ilani united two opposing chiefdoms on Maui into a peaceful kingdom, marking the emergence of a religious state on the island. Archaeologists had been unable to confirm that sequence of events, however, in part because of the limitations of carbon dating. (一种炭14元素测时间技术)
In the new work, Patrick V. Kirch and Warren D. Sharp of the University of California and Berkeley used another kind of radiometric technique involving thorium-230, rather than carbon-14, to date bits of branch coral that were collected from living reefs and left as divine offerings at seven different temples during construction.(部分细节定位题) Dates for these corals, which had been incorporated into walls and platform fill, all fell in a narrow range of 1565 to 1638 A.D., give or take a few years on either end. Moreover, dates on the samples that best reflect the time they were harvested from the sea--those from the coral branch tips--ranged from 1608 to 1638 A.D., an interval of just 30 years. These findings thus point to intensive temple-building during that time. Because temples served as centers for control of production and the collection of surplus goods, the team contends, it seems likely that the construction boom accompanied a profound shift in sociopolitical structure. (第二段有细节题，看仔细)
Kirch and Sharp observe that the conquests described by local oral traditions coincide with these new dates, and would have more than doubled the size of the Maui polity to upwards of 2,360 square kilometers--the magnitude of expansion expected with the formation of an archaic state. "The temples provide tangible archaeological evidence of the speed with which a fundamental sociopolitical transition occurred in proto-historic Hawaii," the authors conclude. Indeed, they note, it may have happened in the span of a single generation of Hawaiians. (证明夏威夷社会政治的发展比预想快，在一代就完成)
Q1:TOPIC证明夏威夷社会政治的发展比预想快 topicQ2: What can infer EXCEPT (细节题)Q3: why scientist can not prove Hawaii happened in a single period of history originally?: the limitations of carbon dating.Q1：问主旨，答案是一种新的方法证明了oral history关于那个岛社会政治发展比原来人们认为的250年要快。
此外，文中确实提到coral是用来ornamental（装饰）的，但是楼主没有遇到相应的问题。
其它问题记不清了。但感觉都不难。大家熟读上面两篇长文，若有幸遇到千万不要笑昏了头，放心，没有难选项。楼主认为GMAC的出题原则之一可能是：短文加大题目选项难度；而长文呢，考生读起来已经够费劲的了，题目选项相对就要容易些。
问题：
Q1：为什么作者最后一句话提到判断出 temple 的建造时间是 a single generation？
用于表明结论和历史学家们认为的不同(V 35)
Q2：本文中提供的信息不能得到以下哪个选项的答案，选项中有：为什么科学家认为是250年？用coral检验了什么？等等.有个选项是这个庙是为什么建的，还有个那个领导人啥啥啥的
Q3：文章中说这个temple发展within a single generation的目的是什么
1忘了
2忘了
3说明用那个方法倒推出来的时间是amenable的，好像是“可修改的”不确定了，我理解的它的意思是想表达“不那么精确”，所以犹豫了很久
4忘了
5强调这个岛上文化的变化没有之前想象的那么even
我选了5.。。。(V 28)
Q4： temple 的建造时间是 a single generation,infer? 这道的答案应该不是原来JJ里的，这道题的答案定位在最后一句话，这句话是两个分句，后半句是t mayhave happened in the span of a single generation of Hawaiians.，因此答案是前半个分句
Q5：Thefollowing are mentioned in the passage except?
The reason why former scientists expected the social reform last250 years.
为什么一开始认为是construction持续了250年（250年可以秒选）（v 36）
Q6：提到了generation为了什么？
我选D，表明和traditional 科学家的看法一致。 E说 表明那个时候建造的速度uneven。。
provide evidence that social reform is uneven(注意uneven这个词可以秒选）（v 36）
Q7：文章的主旨
reaserch show evidencethat can improve scientists' consideration toward the social reform in somearea of Pacific Ocean(注意有几个选项有oral historicians是不对的！）（v36）
考古：
(下面这篇文章V1版本的狗主已确认，文章很像但有变体，题目不一样。大家可以看看找感觉——irenechl注)
搜到一个 类似的 貌似10年的题 是这个么。。。

V1 老张1119
一个新老观点对比题结构蛮清晰的
第一段是说Hawii的temple还是啥的一个什么特征让科学家相信它们是比之前认为的建造的更快还是什么的（有题）
第二段是说科学家通过新的一种技术研究珊瑚还是啥的来验证他们的想法然后说这些新的数据他们原来的设想的是相符合的(consistent)（有题）证实了他们的猜想
V2 by cc1990 740
第二篇是说一个岛上有寺庙，科学家用元素追踪技术研究建寺庙时用的珊瑚，发现这个岛上的一段时间内社会历史文化变化比之前预想要快。题目有主旨，还有问珊瑚的用处，应该是装饰品，因为文中有Ornamentally.
V3 by chole蜗牛 670
Hawii temple. 这篇虽然JJ上有但是不是很全就补充下，而且JJ跟我看到的很不一样一开头是一样的就是科学家通过新的一种技术研究珊瑚还是啥的来验证他们的想法，然后珊瑚的特征让科学家相信它们是比之前认为的建造的更快。但是这个只是开头第一段的一部分，这篇文章主要是为了利用这个科学发现证明一个social reform of 这个地方！！利用了一个元素叫“U-223”追踪的办法，确定那个TAMPLE应该在某一个时代产生，但是后来却又有个实验证明这个TAMPLE并不是在这个时代产生的，说是那个时代不可能有这么快发展的可能，在那个时代people并不是那么推举这个样式的temple 这里还说到一些关于religion 的问题但是我没有碰到religion的考题所以没有记得很清楚…然后影响很深,最后一句的ending 是什么什么of “this single generation”然后有题是这里说的“this singlegeneration”是为了什么，我选的是什么真的记不起来了…然后问道了主旨题，我选的答案应该是有什么science 之类的…具体不记得了…至于JJ说的珊瑚的作用这题我并没有碰到，但是文中的确有”Ornamentally”这个单词，所以各位亲们遇到了就选那个装饰作用应该没有错. |
