求助：OG12-122

122、The spacing of the four holes on a fragment of a bone flute excavated at a Neanderthal campsite is just what is required to play the third through sixth notes of the diatonic scale--the secen-note musical scale used in much of Western music since the Renaissance. Musicologists therefore hypothesize that the diatonic musical scale was developed and used thousands of years before it was adopted by Western musicians.

which of the following, if ture, most strongly supports the hypothesis?

(A) Bone flutes were probably the only musical instrument made by Neanderthals.

(B) No musical instrument that is know to have used a diatonic scale is of an earlier date than the flute found at the Neanderthal campsite.

(C) The flute was made from a cave-bear bone and the campsite at which the flute fragment was excavated was in a cave that also contained skeletal remains of cave bears.

(D) Flutes are the simplest wind instrument that can be constructed to allow palying a diatonic scale.

(E) The cave-bear leg bone used to make the Neanderthal flute would have been long enough to make a flute capable of playing ac complete diatonic scale.

答案是E，不是很理解理由~~~求助啊~~~~谢谢~~~

从尼安德特人那发掘的骨笛的一部分可以演奏全音階中的3到6那几个音符，而全音階是西方文艺复兴后使用的音乐旋律体系，所以音乐学家推断全音階在西方音乐家之前几千年就已被使用了。

但题设没有说尼安德特人笛子怎么吹1和2那两个音，因为出土的只是那笛子的一部分, 只能演奏3到6。

ABCD都跟支持没有关系，只有E可以补充题设中的不足。
