In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, many Western Pueblo印第安人村庄settlements 殖民in what is now the southwestern United States may have possessed distinctly hierarchical
等级体系的organizational structures.美国西南的印第安部落可能有明显的等级组织结构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. That formal management of food resources was needed is suggested by thelarge size of storage spaces locatedaround some communal Great Kivas (underground ceremonial chambers). Though no direct evidence exists that such spaces were used to store food, Western Pueblo communities lacking sufficient arable可开垦的 land to support their populations could have preserved the necessary extra food, including imported foodstuffs, live;">in such apparently communal spaces.
Moreover, evidence of specialization in producing raw materials and in manufacturing ceramics and textiles indicates differentiation of labor within and between communities. The organizational and managerial demands of such specialization strengthen the possibility that a decision making elite精英existed, an elite whose control over labor, the use of community surpluses, 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 burials of the period: some include large quantities of pottery, jewelry, and other artifacts, whereas others from the same sites lack any such materials.
Which of the following, if true, would most clearly undermine the author’s statement in the last sentence of the passage(lines 38-43) regarding the distribution of wealth in Western Pueblo settlements?
A.Only community members of exceptional wealth are likely to have been buried with their personal possessions.
B.Members of communities with extensive agricultural systems are usually buried without personal possessions.
C.Most artifacts found in burial sites were manufactured locally rather than imported from other communities.
D.Burial artifacts are often ritualobjects associated with religious practices rather than being the deceased’s personal possessions.
E.The quality of burial artifacts varies depending on the site with which they are associated.
line38-43，就是最后的黄色部分。这道题我实在不知道是什么意思，没有思路，改怎么做呢？
