That large animals require a luxuriant vegetation, has been a general
assumption which has passed from one work to another; but I do not
hesitate to say that it is completely true, and that it has vitiated the【S1】________
reasoning of geologists on some points of great interest in the ancient history
of the world. The prejudice has probably derived from India, and the Indian【S2】________
islands, which troops of elephants, noble forests, and impenetrable jungles, 【S3】________
are associated together in every one’s mind. If, therefore, we refer to any【S4】________
in almost every page either to the desert character of the country, nor to the【S6】________
numbers of large animals inhabiting it. The same thing is rendered evident
by the many engravings which have been published of various parts of the interior.
Dr. Andrew Smith, who has lately succeeded in passing the Tropic of
Capricorn, informs me that, taken into consideration the whole of the【S7】________
southern part of Africa, there can be no doubt of its being a sterile country.
On the southern coasts there are some fine forests, but without these【S8】________
exceptions, the traveler may pass for days together through open plains,
covered by a poor and scanty vegetation. Now, if we look to the animals
inhabiting this wide plains, we shall find their numbers extraordinarily【S9】________
great, and their bulk immense. We must enumerate the elephant, three
species of rhinoceros, the giraffe, two zebras, two gnus, and several
antelopes even larger than these latter animals. It may be supposed that even【S10】________
although the species are numerous, the individuals of each kind are few.
【S1】
选项
答案
true→false
解析
上下文语义矛盾。该句意为“大型动物需要一个植被繁茂的栖息地,这种在各行业之间广泛流传的观点我却毫不迟疑地认为是错误的;它在某些方面损害了地质学家的推理,破坏了他们对古代史的浓厚兴趣。”从文章来看,全文反驳的是大型动物需要柄居在植被繁茂地带的观点。故将true改为false。
