What is the main idea of the news item?
Scientists say they can now definitively back the long held theory that a huge asteroid striking the earth some 65 million years ago was responsible for wiping out the dinosaurs and more man half of all animal species on the planet. The scientists finally discounted an alternative theory that volcanic eruptions caused the dinosaur’s demise.
The popular conception is that dinosaurs reigned supreme until they were suddenly eradicated from the face of the planet. The theory goes that a giant asteroid crashed into the earth, wiping out half of all life on earth. Some scientists though say that those evidences that dinosaur survived the asteroid impact and became extinct some 300,000 years later. But a new analysis of all the available research has backed the view that it was a giant asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs.
选项
A、Dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago.
B、Cause of dinosaur’s extinction is proved.
C、Volcanic eruption is the cause of the dinosaur’s extinction.
D、Scientists are looking for the cause of dinosaur’s extinction.
答案
B
解析
主旨大意题。新闻开头就说,科学家们已经可以最终确定是什么原因导致恐龙的灭绝,接下来提及了两个原因,并且说明了研究证据支持的是巨星撞地说。可见这则新闻主要就是说科学家们已经能够证实恐龙灭绝的原因,B正确。
