Pueblo Bonito, the most impressive of the "great houses" at the prehistoric Chaco Canyon site in New Mexico, comprised over 600 rooms and 4 to 5 stories. Traditional interpretations have viewed the great houses as almost entirely residential with some archaeologists estimating the population of Pueblo Bonito at 1,200. But Windes recently challenged this view by pointing out the paucity of hearths recorded during the excavation of Pueblo Bonito, which revealed only 3 upper-story hearths, in contrast to 59 ground-floor hearths: habituation rooms would have required hearths for cooking and heat. It is possible, however, that the collapse of upper-story floors disturbed evidence of upper-story hearth to such an extent that they were not revealed by early excavations such as those conducted by Pepper’s field crews in the 1890s and Judd’s in the 1920s. Additionally, reliance on room features for early population estimates is complicated by the Chacoan’s later remodeling, especially given Judd’s disinclination to destroy later structures and features to expose earlier ones. The failure of early excavations to strip off intact floors may have concealed evidence of hearths in upper-story rooms. [br] It can be inferred from the passage that Windes would be most likely to agree with which of the following statements about room usage in Pueblo Bonito?
选项
A、Upper-story rooms were rarely used as storage areas.
B、Rooms that were remodeled were most likely to have been residential rooms.
C、The majority of residential rooms were located on the ground floor.
D、Early excavations of Pueblo Bonito disturbed much of the evidence indication room usage.
E、Upper-story rooms with hearths were probably used for different purposes than were lower story rooms with hearths.
答案
C
解析
本题考查温德斯的观点,定位到第三句。根据温德斯的观点可知,有灶台的地方才有可能是居住用的屋子,同时上层只有3个灶台而下层有59个,因此可以得到结论:下层有更多的居住用的屋子,选项C正确。A项文中未提及储存。B项温德斯的观点里没有提及重新装修。D项是作者的观点,不是温德斯的。E项根据温德斯的观点,只要有灶台就可以是居住用房,因此上下层既然都发现了灶台,那么都有可能是用于居住的。
