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 seven-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 true, most strongly supports the hypothesis?
(A) Bone flutes were probably the only musical instrument made by Neanderthals.
(B) No musical instrument that is known 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 playing 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 a complete diatonic scale.

能帮忙翻译下原文吗？谢谢

出土于尼安地塔人营地的骨笛碎片上的四个孔洞的间隔，正是演奏全音阶从第三到第六音符所需要的--文艺复兴时期所以用的七音阶。音乐学者由此推断，全音阶的发明和使用先于西方音乐一千多年。
问 支持？
1 骨笛有可能是尼人唯一的乐器
2在已知的全音阶乐器中，没有比尼人所使用的骨笛更早的。
3笛子由穴熊的骨头做的，发现笛子碎片的营地在一个有熊骨残迹的洞穴里
4笛子是最简单的可以演奏全音阶的管乐器
5被用来制作尼人笛子的熊腿骨足够长到制作一个可以演奏全音阶的笛子。
有点绕啊啊啊， 题目的简单来说意思就是说，发现的弟子可以演奏一种高级音乐，这种高级音乐到文艺复习时才被西方使用，学者推测，这个地方人使用这种高级音乐比西方人早了1000多年。

As usual, I do not recommend translating GMAT questions into Chinese. You are wasting valuable time by doing so. Read, think, and answer in English. Good luck.

SD能帮我看看我在逻辑区发的那两个帖子么，都没人回我对自己的分析不太有信心

请问一下B为何不行呢，把B取非，就是说有被发现的比在Neanderthal更早的全音阶乐器，那不就说明西方音乐起源于更早而非1000多年前了吗，削弱了原题，所以B应该是support了啊
