if E is "have been dated at 3.47 billion years and thus are" then it is perfect since "dated at" is idiomatic, only thing I am not sure is that "old", which make "3.47 billion years old" an adj., I dont know if I saw a "at + adj." usage? is it strange?

答案选3。看后面的old，表示samples的'年龄'已经是3.47b年；如果用5的dated at，至少old就不该要，只能说'at'在哪一年而不能说在哪一年old；如果要表达‘多少年前’这个概念，应该用before和完成时连用，相应地，at也该改为from: have been dated from 3.48 billion years before
