Which of the following best describes the content of the passage? [br] The passage suggests which of the following about most existing maps of Native American lands?
选项
A、They do not record the migrations of Native American tribes.
B、They have been preserved primarily because of their connection with treaties involving land transfers.
C、They tend to reflect archaeological evidence that has become outdated.
D、They tend to be less accurate when they are based on oral reports than when they are based on written documents.
E、They are not based primarily on the mapmakers’ firsthand oberservations of Native American lands.
答案
E
解析
This question requires you to use the information provided in the passage to draw an inference about existing Native American land maps. Choice E is the best answer. The passage points out that most existing maps are based on second-hand information and that their accuracy is largely dependent on the map-makers’ ability to interpret that information. Thus it can be inferred that most of these maps are not based on firsthand observations by the mapmakers. Choice A is not correct because the passage mentions the “current cartographic record relating to Native American tribes and their migrations,” indicating that migrations are at least in part recorded on existing maps. Choice B is not correct: while the passage mentions that some maps were produced in connection with treaties involving land transfers, there is no indication in the passage that this connection was the primary impetus for preservation of the maps. Choice C is incorrect because the passages mentions that some maps are based on archaeological findings, but does not provide information that would support a claim that the archaeological evidence reflected in the maps has become outdated. While the statement in choice D could be true, the passage does not provide information to support such an inference.
