新东方逻辑分册第16section的第5题【T代表Toltec人,V代表Veracruz地点】,怎么想都不明白为什么选B?问题不是问哪一个可以支持考古学家所说的证据的缺乏吗?B只是支持了考古学家的结论,而不是他们缺乏的证据呀?我选择了A,因为觉得它的意思才是说明不能判断那个东西是否是toy。为什么呢?苦思了两天也没明白,望高人指点。
Archaeologists have found wheeled ceramic toys made by the T, 12th century inhabitants of what is now V. Although there is no archaeological evidence that the T used wheels for anything but toys, some anthropologists hypothesize that wheeled utility vehicles were used to carry materials needed for the monumental structures the T produced.
Which of the following, if true, would most help the anthronologists explain the lack of evidence noted above?
A.The T sometimes incorporated into their toys representations of utensils or other devices that served some practical purpose.
B.Any wheeled utility vehicies used by the T could have been made entirely of wood, and unlike ceramic, wood decays rapidly in the humid climate of V.
C.Carvings in monument walls suggest that the T’s wheeled ceramic toys sometimes had ritual uses in addition to being used by both children and adults as decorations and playthings.
E.Some of the wheeled ceramic toys were found near the remains of monumental structures.

我是这么理解的:
问题是说下面哪一个有助于解释证据的缺乏:
b答案说:木制的轮子的交通工具都腐烂了,这恰好说明证据缺乏嘛,换言之,若没腐烂,嘿,就是证据了。当然,这句话同时也支持了结论
a错了,因为这里的证据是指Toltec人有没有除玩具外,使用过轮子,而不是你说的能不能判断那个东西是否是toy

关键在于理解问题,
问题说的是“如何解释缺乏证据”。
那么怎么可能选a呢?:)

稍微有点明白了,还需要消化,谢了!

哈哈,今天彻底搞明白了,
我的问题还是出在对题目的理解上面了,以为B里面说的那个东东和题目中的不是等价的,但原文中用了wheeled utility vehicles 指代wheeled ceramic toys,所以和B中所说的是一个东东。这下子就彻底明白了。
所以GMAT逻辑其实根本不是什么逻辑,翻译成中文,地球人都知道!(当然我的假设是地球上只有俺们中国人,呵呵)蔑视GMAT!
