[讨论]gwd17-6，答案给的是a，我觉得应该是e。

By the sixteenth century, the Incas                                          

       of South America ruled an empire that                                                                     

       extended along the Pacific coast and

Line       Andean highlands from what is now

  (5)      Ecuador to central Chile. While most

of the Incas were self-sufficient

agriculturists, the inhabitants of the

highland basins above 9,000 feet were                                             

constrained by the kinds of crops they                                                            

(10)      could cultivate. .........（省略）

  In most of the prein-

(20)      dustrial world, the problem of different

resource distribution was resolved by

long-distance trade networks over

       which the end consumer exercised

       little control.  Although the peoples

(25)      of the Andean highlands participated

in such networks, they relied primarily

on the maintenance of autonomous

production forces in as many eco-

             logical zones as possible.

Q6:

According to the passage, the inhabitants of the Andean highlands resolved the problem of unequal resource distribution primarily in which of the following ways?

1. Following self-sufficient agricultural practices


2. Increasing commodity production from the ecological zones in the highland basins


3. Increasing their reliance on long-distance trade networks


4. Establishing satellite communities throughout the Andean highlands


5. Establishing production forces in ecological zones beyond their parent communities

Answer:

我觉得答案给a，是受了while部分的影响。请大家指教。

我也认为E对。

选项A：“Following self-sufficient agricultural practices”不是用来“resolved the problem of unequal resource distribution”，而是原文“most of the Incas were self-sufficient
            agriculturists”。

请大家指点

I think it is E

who can tell the true answer?

我觉得答案是c，Although the peoples

(25) of the Andean highlands participated

in such networks, they relied primarily

on the maintenance of autonomous

production forces in as many eco-

logical zones as possible.
