The primary purpose of the passage is to propose______ [br] The author mentions the excavation in Cyprus (lines 31-34) to emphasize which of the following points?
选项
A、Ancient lamps and pottery vessels are less valuable, although more rare, than royal seal impressions.
B、Artifacts that are very similar to each other present cataloguing difficulties to archaeologists.
C、Artifacts that are not uniquely valuable, and therefore could be sold, are available in large quantities.
D、Cyprus is the most important location for unearthing large quantities of salable artifacts.
E、Illegal sales of duplicate artifacts are wide-spread, particularly on the island of Cyprus.
答案
C
解析
C is the best answer. In lines 38-41, the author refutes the assertion that every object excavated has potential scientific value and therefore should not be sold. In lines 42-44, the author defines those objects that do not have scientific value: “the thousands of pottery vessels…that are essentially duplicates of one another.” The Cyprus excavation appears in the next sentence as an example of one location in which such duplicate artifacts have been found in large quantities. The reference to “2,000 virtually indistinguishable small jugs” highlights the profusion and uniformity of the Cyprus finds. Thus, the excavation is mentioned in order to emphasize the ready availability of objects that lack unique value and therefore could be sold.
