以下是引用phoebe2009在2008-10-22 22:31:00的发言:Q40: Two centuries ago, Tufe Peninsula became separated form the mainland, isolating on the newly formed Tufe Island a population of Turfil sunflowers. This population’s descendants grow to be, on average, 40 centimeters shorter than Turfil sunflowers found on the mainland. Tufe Island is significantly drier than Tufe Peninsula was. So the current average height of Tufe’s Turfil sunflowers is undoubtedly at least partially attributable to changes in Tufe’s environmental conditions.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
- There are no types of vegetation on Tufe Island that are known to benefit from dry conditions.
- There were about as many Turfil sunflowers on Tufe Peninsula two centuries ago as there are on Tufe Island today.
- The mainland’s environment has not changed in ways that have resulted in Turfil sunflowers on the mainland growing to be 40 centimeters taller than they did two centuries ago.
- The soil on Tufe Island, unlike that on the mainland, lacks important nutrients that help Turfil sunflowers survive and grow tall in a dry environment.
- The 40-centimeter height difference between the Turfil sunflowers on Tufe Island and those on the mainland is the only difference between the two populations.
结论说花的平均高度至少部分的是由于Tufe的环境条件的改变 D说,在Tufe Island上的土壤,不像在mainland上,缺乏能帮助Turfil sunflowers在dry环境下生存和长高的营养. D是支持啊,是土壤的原因正好支持了是由于环境的变化, 为什么前面的人都说D是削弱呢? 本题看到这里可以看出3个导致大陆比岛上的花更高的原因: (1)原文结论:大陆的花更高是因为Tufe Island分离后Tufe Island的环境条件改变了(或者说分离变干了) (2)正确选项C:大陆的花更高不是因为大陆的生长方式改变,使的太阳花现在可以长更高了 这里的“不是”就是否掉他因,支持原有原因,属于not weaken型假设 (3)D:岛上花更矮是因为Tufe Island上的土壤没有提供可以长高营养 这里给出他因,削弱原有原因,属于weaken
