BOLDFACE题目一般很难做啊，太抽象了，不过好在考试的时候不多见

这道题的结论到底是什么？我选的C，与B 的差别就在对于结论的判定上，我认为····

这道题选B吧。

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.

这段话的中心在第一句，第一局的中心在后面。所以first黑体部分是要establish的观点。

后面这个黑体是一个重要的假设。文中的逻辑关系是：证据--》结合假设--》结论。

证据：1.最早的希腊人写字方向不一定；2. 现代希腊人学会了 alphabetic的字，并且从右往左；3. 希腊人是学ph人的；4.最早的ph人也是两边写字的，但是某个时间点上他们只是从右往左写。

假设：希腊人对写字从那边开始不关心，只要方便就好（也就是说ph人怎么写，他们就怎么学。没有这个假设，下面的就不能成立）

结论：希腊人是在上面ph人从右往左写的时候学的。（否则，希腊人应该还是无论从那边写都一样；同时这个时间点把原先希腊人学习alphabetic的时间提早了）

哎,没看见A中 的oppose,在A\B中选了A,看来领导者不仅要统筹大局,还要重视细节啊.

此题的关键在于Now,.XXXXXXXX, 在此作adv，当时讲，she was 11  years old,now and she was only a little girl.
1. a strong case can be made: made an hint for the position the passage wants to establish.
                                                   and the context followed must to corroborate the position.
2.the second sentence comes back to content of the inscription in question.
3. third sentence, Now. 当时，means the time when the inscription carved.  focus on the( " they  
   would surely have') means that the subjunctive. and under it, the passage made the assumption.
4. the fourth, originally, gives the exact evidence to support the assumption.
position--assumption that supports position derived from fact---- fact evidence corroborates what the assumption issued.

arundhati  MM，你真牛！


谢谢。我确实觉得B/F题很搞。太抽象，所以误判率高于其他逻辑题。

现在的CR里面还有B/F题吗？我也是对于B/F题完全没感觉，错误率很高。

这道题我做一次错一次，因为看不懂因果关系。现在用ron的关于boldface方法，发现明确又简便，尤其在时间紧张看不懂具体意思的情况下：

Although the earliest surviving Greek inscriptions written in an alphabet date from the eighth century B.C., the fact that the text of these Greek inscriptions sometimes runs from right to left and sometimes from left to right indicates that the Greeks adopted alphabetic writing at least two centuries before these inscriptions were produced. After all, the Greeks learned alphabetic writing from the Phoenicians, and presumably, along with the alphabet, they also adopted the then-current Phoenician practice with respect to the direction of text. And although Phoenician writing was originally inconsistent in direction, by the eighth century B.C. Phoenician was consistently written from right to left and had been for about two centuries.

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

(A) The first and the second each describe evidence that has been used to challenge the position that the argument seeks to establish.

(B) The first is evidence that forms the basis for an objection to the position that the argument seeks to establish; the second is that position.

(C) The first is evidence that forms the basis for an objection to the position that the argument seeks to establish; the second is a consideration that is introduced to counter the force of that evidence.

(D) The first and the second each provide evidence in support of the position that the argument seeks to establish.

(E) The first provides evidence in support of the position that the argument seeks to establish; the second is that position.

因为bf1是fact, bf2 也是facts, 所以 facts = evidence. 选d。
