[求助]菜鸟请教~OG 11th CR 第九题

我怎么看不懂答案啊。feared 和 persecuted不都是被动吗 就是说蝙蝠怕人而且被迫害 可是跟答案的解释不一致啊。。

请赐教~~~~不胜感激~~

9. A conservation group in the United States is trying to change the long-standing image of bats as frightening creatures. The group contends that bats are feared and persecuted solely because they are shy animals that are active only at night. 

Which of the following, if true, would cast the most serious doubt on the accuracy of the group!ˉs contention?
A. Bats are steadily losing natural roosting places such as caves and hollow trees and are thus turning to more developed areas for roosting. 
B. Bats are the chief consumers of nocturnal insects and thus can help make their hunting territory more
pleasant for humans. 
C. Bats are regarded as frightening creatures not only in the United States but also in Europe, Africa, and South America. 
D. Raccoons and owls are shy and active only at night; yet they are not generally feared and persecuted.
E. People know more about the behavior of other greatly feared animal species, such as lions, alligators, and greatly feared animal species, such as lions, alligators, and snakes, than they do about the behavior of bats.
 

OG给的答案 9.
The group's contention suggests that animals that are shy and active at night are feared and persecute for that reason. D establishes that raccoons and owls are shy and active at night, but that they are neither feared nor persecuted. Therefore, D is the best answer. Although an increasing prevalence of bats might explain the importance of addressing people’s fear of bats, A does not address the original causes of that fear. B and E, while relevant to the rationality of people!ˉs fear of bats, do not affect the assessment of the accuracy of the group’s contention. That bats are feared outside the United States, as C states, does not conflict with the group’explanation for fear of bats in the United States.

恩,这道题俺非NN也看明白了。我的选择也是D。

楼主你看到了被动态但没有理解正确题意。题意是保护组织假设人们害怕因而消灭蝙蝠仅仅是因为蝙蝠通常只在夜晚活动导致人们不太了解他们。因此如果能够举出一些反例来证明人们对于只在夜间活动的动物并不都是害怕从而消灭,就可以很好的质疑这个假设了。D中很对头的举了猫头鹰和浣熊作为反例。所以自然就选他了。
