69.   (35233-!-item-!-188;#058&007607)

Excavation of the ancient city of Kourion on the island of Cyprus revealed a pattern of debris and collapsed buildings typical of towns devastated by earthquakes.  Archaeologists have hypothesized that the destruction was due to a major earthquake known to have occurred near the island in A.D. 365.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the archaeologists' hypothesis?

(A) Bronze ceremonial drinking vessels that are often found in graves dating from years preceding and following A.D. 365 were also found in several graves near Kourion.

(B) No coins minted after A.D. 365 were found in Kourion, but coins minted before that year were found in abundance.

(C) Most modern histories of Cyprus mention that an earthquake occurred near the island in A.D. 365.

(D) Several small statues carved in styles current in Cyprus in the century between A.D. 300 and 400 were found in Kourion.

(E) Stone inscriptions in a form of the Greek alphabet that was definitely used in Cyprus after A.D. 365 were found in Kourion.

 选B说明强调时间  为什么C不行呢 不能使强调地震么

期盼NN回答 感谢啊

modern histories也不过是另一些人的说法拉~

没有办法support啊~

B是事实~

B选项是表明 AD365之前这个城市还在造币 365之后 就不造币了 正好表明 在365年这个城市废了

C是犯了“诉诸权威”的错误 在逻辑题中见到“诉诸权威” 此选项必错

而其题目中是强调destruction是因为地震

如果要选strengthen的话 一定要选一个 表明是earthquake 把这城市 destruct 的选项 而不是选 表明地震发生的选项

而且文中已经说a major earthquake known to have occurred near the island in A.D. 365了

选项再support这句事实  你感觉这有意义吗？
