There is no simple answer to this question,【22】many hundreds of scientists are studying the problem. They are not studying the extinction of the dinosaurs【23】, but the whole question of extinction.

Some of the early dinosaur scientists, 100 years ago, thought the dinosaurs died out because the【29】changed, and they could not breathe. Others thought that the dinosaurs disappeared simply because they became too big.
They were【30】to move and could not find enough food【31】One theory is that a huge killer meteorite【32】the earth.

选项
A、as
B、because
C、even if
D、even though
答案
D
解析
考查上下句逻辑关系和副词的词义。选项D even though“即使,尽管”,强调不管事实上如何,对既成事实的否定,符合题意。even if“即使,尽管”虽然也有转折之意,但更多的是对将要发生的情况的假设。
