OG12-77,谢谢各位。

Although the earliest surviving Greek inscriptions written in an alphabet date from the eighth century B.C., the fact that the text of these Greek inscriptions sometimes runs from right to left and sometimes from left to right indicates that the Greeks adopted alphabetic writing at least two centuries before these inscriptions were produced.  After all, the Greeks learned alphabetic writing from the Phoenicians, and presumably, along with the alphabet, they also adopted the then-current Phoenician practice with respect to the direction of text.  And although Phoenician writing was originally inconsistent in direction, by the eighth century B.C. Phoenician was consistently written from right to left and had been for about two centuries.

In the argument given, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

(A)  The first and the second each describe evidence that has been used to challenge the position that the argument seeks to establish.
(B)  The first is evidence that forms the basis for an objection to the position that the argument seeks to establish; the second is that position.
(C)  The first is evidence that forms the basis for an objection to the position that the argument seeks to establish; the second is a consideration that is introduced to counter the force of that evidence.
(D)  The first and the second each provide evidence in support of the position that the argument seeks to establish.
(E)  The first provides evidence in support of the position that the argument seeks to establish; the second is that position.




正确答案是D,不明白第二个粗体部分是如何支持观点的?能给翻译一下么?是18th century B.C.之前就consistently了两个世纪,还是之后consistently了两个世纪?
谢谢各位了!

公元前跟公元的计时刚好是反的。。。。公元8世纪的前两个世纪是公元10世纪。公元8世纪的前两个世纪才是公元6世纪。

修正一下,这个翻译有误:到公元前8世纪时,腓尼基人已经采用从右至左书写两个世纪。
也就是说,希腊人是在腓尼基人掌握固定的书写形式前(也就是公元前十世纪)学到的,所有才有左有右。

我理解了,十分感谢您的翻译和解释!让我茅塞顿开~~~谢谢谢谢~

试回答:
总结论:希腊人至少在此碑铭产生之前两个世纪(即公元前10世纪)就开始用字母书写了
第二个黑体:
到公元前8世纪时,腓尼基人一贯都从右至左书写并且已经持续了两年左右
如何支持:到公元前8世纪时,腓尼基人一贯都从右至左书写并且已经持续了两年左右 其目的是想说明希腊人不可能在公元前10世纪之后才开始学腓尼基的字母书写,因为要是公元前10世纪才从腓尼基那里学字母书写的话,就应该是从右至左书写,不会忽左忽右了
供参考~~~~

25、背景:虽然现存最早的用字母写的希腊碑铭可追溯到公元前8世纪,但这个碑铭忽左忽右的书写方向表明,希腊人至少在此碑铭产生之前两个世纪就开始用字母书写了。毕竟,希腊人是从腓尼基人那里学习的字母,大概他们学字母的同时也学习了书写方向。虽说腓尼基人书写方向最初不确定,到公元前8世纪时,腓尼基人一贯都从右至左书写并且已经持续了两年左右

问题:BF

选项:A:两句都提供了证据,用来反驳总论点

       D:两句话都提供证据,用来支持总论点

       E:第一句是证据,支持总论点;第二句是总论点
