What occurred during the four centuries of attempted European conquest in
the Americas merely extended the continuum of history into a new arena. The
successes of these new arrivals and their descendants, consistent with the
Line historical tendencies in human behavior, came at the expense of people whose
(5) kinship-based tribal system still operated on communitarian, if exclusive,
principles. Only the tribes of the southern hemisphere had become fully settled
and had entered into their own era of empire-building. Unfortunately, the
European people had achieved both technological and organizational superiority
as these characteristics applied to the art of warfare whereas the tribes of the
(10) southern hemisphere had numbers in their favor but had no time for the adoption
of European weaponry or strategy, a situation that contrasted sharply with that
in North America where the tribes gained considerable access to modern
weapons and were more flexible in their strategies. The two most important
advantages the European-Americans possessed in the north was the endless
(15) stream of migration that more than replaced the population lost during warfare,
and a production system centered in large and relatively secure population
centers.
According to the passage, European conquerors had which of the following advantages in North America?
选项
A、They possessed a larger population to replace casualties in their conquest of North America than they did in the South.
B、They had already gained experience in the Southern conquest that was not formerly available.
C、They had access to weaponry superior to that which was employed in the Southern conquest.
D、They were confronted by an opponent experienced in empire-building in North America.
E、They had better martial organization in North America than they had in South America.
