[問題]OG11th Q16

16. In Swartkans territory, archaeologists discovered charred bone fragments dating back one million years. Analysis of the fragments, which came from a variety of animals, showed that they had been heated to temperatures no higher than those produced in experimental campfires made from branches of white stinkwood, the most common tree around Swartkans.

Which of the following, if true, would, together with the information above, provide the best basis for the claim that the charred bone fragments are evidence of the use of fire by early hominids?

(A) The white stinkwood tree is used for building material by the present-day inhabitants of Swartkans.
(B) Forest fires can heat wood to a range of temperatures that occur in campfires.
(C) The bone fragments were fitted together by the archaeologists to form the complete skeletons of several animals.
(D) Apart from the Swartkans discovery, there is reliable evidence that early hominids used fire as many as 500000 years sgo.
(E) The bone fragments were found in several distinct layers of limestone that contained primitive cutting tools known to have been used by early hominids.

answer: (E)

想請教一下
這題是什麼意思阿
後半句我有點看不懂
還有這是怎樣的題型

看解釋好像是strengthen
看完選項不知道到底要選什麼
謝謝解答

這題是再問除了"In Swartkans territory, archaeologists discovered charred bone fragments dating back one million years. Analysis of the fragments, which came from a variety of animals, showed that they had been heated to temperatures no higher than those produced in experimental campfires made from branches of white stinkwood, the most common tree around Swartkans"這個條件外， 還需要以下哪一個條件才能證明"the charred bone fragments are evidence of the use of fire by early hominids"

"the charred bone fragments are evidence of the use of fire by early hominids"此推論有兩個重點:
1. the charred bone fragments are evidence of the use of fire-->這點題目就直接告訴我們啦，這個charred bone fragments有被燒過的跡象，而且是比在實驗室中用white stinkwood branches所用出來的火還要低的溫度就可以燒啦!
2.所以還差要把1跟early hominds連起來的證據。

答案選E: 因為E用primitive cutting tools...把charred bone fragment的證據跟early hominds連起來。

我這題也做錯，剛剛想出來的...

link (搭橋)題 (i.e. 連連看)
題目給 'fire'--'bone'
問'hominid'??'fire'
解題:把 'hominid' 和 'bone' 連起來 => 'hominid'--'bone'--'fire'
