To understand the ancient Mayan people who lived in the area that is today southern Mexico and Central America and the ecological difficulties they faced, one must first consider their environment, which we think of as “jungle” or “tropical rainforest.” ■This view is inaccurate, and the reason proves to be important. ■Properly speaking, tropical rainforests grow in high-rainfall equatorial areas that sixteen hundred kilometers from the equator, at latitudes 17 to 22 degrees north, in a habitat termed a “seasonal tropical forest.” ■That is, while there does tend to be a rainy “season from May to October, there is also a dry season from January through April. If one focuses on the wet months, one calls the Maya homeland a “seasonal tropical forest“; if one focuses on the dry months, one could instead describe it as a “seasonal desert” ■

1. Why does the author call Mayan homeland both a “seasonal tropical forested” and seasonal desert?

    1 To illustrate how the climate of the Mayan homeland varied from region to region
 2To explain how the climate of the Mayan homeland is similar to that of a jungle or tropical rainforest
 3To emphasize the vast size of the area that comprised the Mayan homeland in ancient times
 4To make the point that the Mayan homeland is climatically more complex than is generally assumed

我从排除法可以选出是D，但是如何从文章中判断出来呢，感觉从文章中看不出complex

这个我刚做。。。原文中就说人们都以为Maya处在jungle之中，明显是热带气候。
但作者在后面又提到，那里分为旱季和雨季，所以比人们预想的要complex多。。。

不知道解释的好不好-  -

Nomadism also subjects pastoralist communities to strict rules of portability. If you are constantly on the move, you cannot afford to accumulate large material surpluses. Such rules limit variations in accumulated material goods between pastoralist households (though they may also encourage a taste for portable goods of high value such as silks or jewelry). So, by and large, nomadism implies a high degree of self-sufficiency and inhibits the appearance of an extensive division of labor. Inequalities of wealth and rank certainly exist, and have probably existed in most pastoralist societies, but except in periods of military conquest, they are normally too slight to generate the stable, hereditary hierarchies that are usually implied by the use of the term class. Inequalities of gender have also existed in pastoralist societies, but they seem to have been softened by the absence of steep hierarchies of wealth in most communities, and also by the requirement that women acquire most of the skills of men, including, often, their military skills.
游牧的特征同时使田园社会群体要服从于便于移动的严格的规定。如果你要不停的移动，就不能存储大量的剩余财产或者说材料。这样的规定导致了，田园社会群体家庭与家庭之间，财富聚集的种类变化非常小（也就是说，每家的财产情况等都差不多，没有那么大贫富差距，每家有的财务的种类也就差不多）。（尽管他们也会有对于便于移动.又很有价值的比如丝绸.珠宝等的嗜好的鼓励）. 所以大体上来说，游牧民族意味着一种高级别的自给自足和广泛劳力分工的被限制。（也就是说自给自足和劳力集中化是游牧民族的特点）。财物分配的不平等和财产的级别化存在于大多数的田园主义社会群体里，除了在军事大胜利时期，因为在战时财产这个东西是很微小的，根本就不能稳定，所以阶级这个词组的使用通常意味着世袭阶级。性别的不平等在田园主义群体里也是存在的，但好像因为在大多数群体里没有严重的财产阶级之分，所以性别的不平等也就很弱；并且在战争时期，对女人学习男人会的技术，包括战争技术的要求也决定了性别不平等的不明显。

这个“complex"是根据这个段落的大意来的，开始人们认为---，后来提到这两个定义，就是说人们之前想的"inaccurate"。看这个段落的最后两句，就知道了根据侧重点不同，不能单纯的定义为人们之前认为的那种气候。
（小k)回答的很好了。我给同学翻译了这个段落，看看吧。如果还是不明白，再讨论！
要想了解古代玛雅人，也就是现在的墨西哥南部和美国中部的人们，和他们所面临的生态学上的问题，一个必须考虑的问题就是他们的环境，也就是我们认为的丛林或者热带雨林式的环境。这种观点是不精确的，并且证实这种说法的原因也是很重要的。通常说来，热带雨林生长在降雨量很多的赤道地区，也就是从赤道周边16公里附近，北纬17-22度，也就是在“季节性热带雨林”地带。那里的雨季基本上从五月持续到十月，但是那里也就旱季，从一月持续到四月。如果集中看比较潮湿的月份，就可以把玛雅内陆称为“季节性热带雨林气候”，如果集中看比较干燥的月份，也可以转换一种说法，叫做“季节性沙漠气候”。
