Historian:
Plato, writing in the fourth century B.C., describes an island he calls Atlantis, where an ancient civilization, famous for pottery made from clay of an unusual shade of red, flourished before being destroyed by volcanic eruptions. It has traditionally been held that
Atlantis is entirely a creation of Plato’s imagination
. However, archaeologists now believe that volcanic eruptions destroyed a civilization on a Greek island today called Santorini roughly when Plato’s Atlantis was supposedly destroyed. And because Santorini also has unusual red clay deposits, some scholars now contend that Santorini was Plato’s Atlantis. Yet the fact remains that writers before Plato never mention an Atlantis-like civilization. Since they would certainly have done so if such a civilization had existed, the traditional
view is surely correct
.
In the historian’s argument, the two portions highlighted play which of the following roles?
选项
A、The first is a position that the historian considers; the second states the historian’s conclusion concerning that position.
B、The first is a position that the historian rejects; the second is a conclusion drawn to justify that rejection.
C、The first presents a position that is upheld by the historian; the second presents the historian’s conclusion concerning a different position.
D、The first presents evidence in support of the historian’s conclusion; the second presents that conclusion.
E、The first is a position that the historian evaluates; the second provides evidence to support the historian’s assessment of that position.
答案
A
解析
全文都是历史学家对第一个黑体部分观点的论证,而第二个黑体部分是历史学家最终的结论,认为第一个黑体部分是正确的。B项历史学家支持了第一个黑体部分,不选。C项前半句正确。后半句第二个黑体部分是历史学家针对传统观点的直接评价,没有评价另一个不同观点。D项第一个黑体部分本身就是结论,而非证据。E项第二个黑体部分是历史学家的结论,而非证据。
