讨论下佛经那道题

ssnwonder

"注 意有有一题问“佛经字里行间标注的copy字样”能说明啥问题。选项非常迷惑，一个选项讲Gandhari的佛经是中国古代的佛经翻译过去的（原文讲的是 中国的佛经从那里传过来的），不能选。还有一个选项是“那些佛经是已经作废的佛经的替代品新版本”（原文讲的是这些佛经就是已经作废的版本），也不能选。应该选“那些和尚(还是寺庙?)有大量的佛经”"

我觉得答案应该是那些佛经是已经作废的佛经的替代品新版本”, 因为文中说such as "copied" indicate that the manuscripts were discardedones that had been replaced by freshly made ones. 很显然这里的manuscript指的是原版, 而不是这些copy的版本, copy的版本应该是freshly made ones

To date the manuscripts, researchers have used such techniques as comparing their contents with inscriptions on coins, and names or events mentioned in other texts. Similar sleuthing suggests that the Kharosthi scrolls came from the library of a Gandharan monastery of the Dharmaguptaka sect of Buddhists; that they date from the first century AD; and that they were found in modern-day northern Pakistan or eastern Afghanistan. Interlinear notations such as "copied" indicate that the manuscripts were discarded ones that had been replaced by freshly made ones. Apparently, says Mr. Salomon, the monasteries had well-organized scriptoriums and large libraries even at that early stage

原文的意思不就是这些佛经是discarded ones吗就是已经作废了的啊 怎么会是新版本呢？

Interlinear notations such as "copied" indicate that the manuscripts were discarded ones ，意思是interlinear notation 表明这些manuscripts 都是被丢弃的，disrarded 做形容词 修饰这个“ones”， 就是说那些“manuscripts” 是被丢弃的，然后又有一个定语从句修饰说，that had been replaced by freshly made ones。这些别丢弃的已经被新做好的替代了。

YY一下：意思是当时相当于图书馆或者阅览的地方，应为长时间的翻阅，造成某些书籍（副本）的损坏，所以需要用新的副本代替。

这句话说了：Apparently, the monasteries had well-organized scriptoriums and large libraries even at that early stage。 意思在当时已经有了类-似制作副本的well -organized scriptoriums and large libraries的地方，因为这些地方的一个功能就是：制作copies的东西。

而不是说，因为原件怕被损害，而文中没有提到这个观点。

求拍砖

应该选“那些monsteries有大量的佛经”"
