※ 引述《chime0515 (我愛劉德華)》之銘言: : Paragraph 2: This was before the steam locomotive, and canal building was at : its height. The companies building the canals to transport coal needed : surveyors to help them find the coal deposits worth mining as well as to : determine the best courses for the canals. This job gave Smith an opportunity : to study the fresh rock outcrops created by the newly dug canal. He later : worked on similar jobs across the length and breadth of England all the while : studying the newly revealed strata and collecting all the fossils he could : find.Smith used mail coaches to travel as much as 10000 miles per year.In : 1815 he published the first modern geological map “A Map of the Strata of : England and Wales with a Part of Scotland”, map so meticulously researched : that it can still be used today. : 4.Accordingto paragraph2,which of the following is true of the map published : by William Smith? : ○It indicates the locations of England's major canals : ○It became most valuable when the steam locomotive made rail travel possible : ○The data for the map were collected during Smith’s work on canals : ○It is no longer regarded as a geological masterpiece : 答案為C 我選A 請問錯在哪呢? : 文中有提到mail coaches的事情 怎麼能斷定他的data全都在 work on canals時蒐集的? 地圖中的任何資料都是在他工作中得到 全文從沒直接提到選項A的答案! : Paragraph 5: Not only could Smith identify rock strata by the fossils they : contained, he could also see a pattern emerging:certain fossils always : appear in more ancient sediments while others begin to be seen as the strata : become more recent. By following the fossils, Smith was able to put all the : strata of England's earth into relative temporal sequence. About the same : time, Georges Cuvier made the same discovery while studying the rocks around : Paris. Soon it was realized that this principle of faunal (animal) succession : was valid not only in England or France but virtually everywhere. It was : actually a principle of floral succession as well, because plants showed the : same transformation through time as did fauna. Limestone may be found in the : Cambrian or-300 million years later-in the Jurassic strata but a trilobite— : the ubiquitous marine arthropod that had its birth in the Cambrian—will : never be found in Jurassic strata, nor a dinosaur in the Cambrian. : 11. Select the TWO answer choices that are true statements based upon the : discussion of the principle of faunal succession in paragraph 5. To receive : credit, you must select TWO answers. : ○It was a principle that applied to fauna but not to flora. : ○It was discovered independently by two different geologists, : ○It describes how fossils are distributed in rock strata : ○It explains why plants and animals undergo transformations through time. : 答案為BC, 請問為什麼可以選C呢? 文章有提到how嗎?? 謝謝!!
