[問題]GWD31- Q23

[Huang Hsin-Yi]

我對這句還是有疑問題.... 不知有沒有人可以support一下
Lucy’s wide, shallow pelvis is actually better suited to bipedal walking than is the rounder, bowl-like pelvis of the modern human, which evolved to form the larger birth canal needed to accommodate the head of a large-brained human infant.

orange色的部分是插入句，
不看插入句


Lucy’s wide, shallow pelvis is actually better suited to bipedal walking than is the rounder, bowl-like pelvis of the modern human,

那不是插入句,那是兩個形容詞的逗點

Lucy那個又寬, 又淺的骨盆是比較適合兩足行走,和modern human的深, 像碗一樣的骨盆比起來,................
Lucy’s wide bowl-like pelvis of the modern human
我解讀的意思是Lucy的和modern human類似

至於插入句
shallow pelvis is actually better suited to bipedal walking than is the rounder
這個rounder的意思我不太敢肯定
除非它代表的是modern human ，不然這句似乎沒有Lucy的和modern human比的意思
所以我選不出B....
是不是我漏掉了 什麼，大家幫我提醒一下...:)

A: brain size
B: tool making ability
C: shape of the pelvis
D: method of locomotion
E: preference for certain foods
Ans. D
是如何選到D的？我選C,看了大家的分析知道C有缺陷，但為甚麼選D呢？

第二段一開頭就是討論 "行動 locomotion " 也就是 upright working
接著又說：骨頭的形狀與排列組合之功能面會 be modified ，這樣可以 upright working ( 就可以用雙腳站立的走路)
後來又提到 pelvis (骨盆) ，它也是骨頭，文章用pelvis慢慢帶出Lucy's pelvis 是適合於兩腳站立的...

講來講去都是在說兩腳站立的走，說來說去就是在解釋第二段一開頭的第一句話...

選(D) 比較合適
