GWD7-Q18:   bold face

Although the earliest surviving Greek inscriptions written in an alphabet date from the eighth century B.C., a strong case can be made that the Greeks actually adopted alphabetic writing at least two centuries earlier.  Significantly, the text of these earliest surviving Greek inscriptions sometimes runs from right to left and sometimes from left to right.  Now, the Greeks learned alphabetic writing from the Phoenicians, and in the process they would surely have adopted whatever convention the Phoenicians were then using with respect to the direction of writing.  Originally, Phoenician writing ran in either direction, but by the eighth century B.C. it had been consistently written from right to left for about two centuries.

 

In the argument given, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

 

1. The first is the position that the argument seeks to establish; the second reports a discovery that has been used to support a position that the argument opposes.[C1] 

2. The first is the position that the argument seeks to establish; the second presents an assumption on which the argument relies.[C2] 

3. The first presents evidence that is used in support of the position that the argument seeks to establish; the second presents an assumption on which the argument relies.

4. The first is an objection raised against a position that the argument opposes; the second is the position that the argument seeks to establish.

5. The first is an objection raised against a position that the argument opposes; the second is evidence that has been used to support that position.

翻译一下，
尽管……，实际上Greek采取A这个写作方法至少两个世纪了。
Greek写作的方法有时候从左到右，有时候从右到左。
Greek的写作方法是从P中学来的，可以确信地认为它采取和P一样的写作方向。
P刚开始是两种写作方向都有（左到右，右到左），但是现在P坚持从右到左的写作方向已经有大约两个世纪了。
显然，找到相同的元素之——两个世纪，后面的论证都是证明前面所说的。所以first sentence是position，
second sentence中有they would surely中的SURELY也说明了是做推理论证的前提假设。
把句子读懂之后其实就能够做出来了
