GWD-9-Q33 to GWD-9-Q36:

[pimi]

我想整篇文章的重點都是在為恐龍是冷血還是溫血動物在做解釋, 舉的例子都是為了證明恐龍是冷血還是溫血動物, 甚至是juvenile crocodiles的例子, 如果選C, 就有點狹隘了～～

GWD-9-Q36:
The author of the passage mentions bone growth patterns in juvenile crocodiles most likely in order to
A. provide support for the argument that reptiles are not related to dinosaurs
B. undermine the claim that most reptiles are slow-growing
C. offer an explanation as to why juvenile crocodiles differ from most modern reptiles
D. suggest the juvenile crocodiles have a type of physiology intermediate between that of mammals and that of reptiles
E. suggest that the presence of fibro-lamellar bone does not resolve the debate over dinosaur physiology

Answer: E


請問E是如何推導出來的？

Although
modern reptiles generally do not form
fibro-lamellar bone, juvenile crocodiles
raised under optimal environmental
conditions do.

C這個選項不就是完全解釋這一段嗎？

煩請各位大大解惑，感恩。

定位在這裡:
(Although
...) This question remains
(60) unanswered; indeed, taking all the evidence
into account, one cannot make
a definitive statement about dinosaur
physiology on the basis of dinosaur
bone.

(A) 沒有根據
(B) bone 才 slow-growing, 不是 reptile
(C) 無謂的比較
(D) 跳行
