Questions 20 to 22 are based on this passage. In the 1980s, neuroscientists studying the brain processes underlying our sense of conscious will compared subjects’ judgments regarding their subjective will to move (W) and actual movement (M) with objective electroencephalographic activity called readiness potential, or RP. As expected, W preceded M: subjects consciously perceived the intention to move as preceding a conscious experience of actually moving. This might seem to suggest an appropriate correspondence between the sequence of subjective experiences and the sequence of the underlying events in the brain. But researchers actually found a surprising temporal relation between subjective experience and objectively measured neural events: in direct contradiction of the classical conception of free will, neural preparation to move (RP) preceded conscious awareness of the intention to move (W) by hundreds of milliseconds.
22. The author of the passage mentions the classical conception of free will primarily in order to
A argue that earlier theories regarding certain brain processes were based on false assumptions
B suggest a possible flaw in the reasoning of neuroscientists conducting the study discussed in the passage
C provide a possible explanation for the unexpected results obtained by neuroscientists
D cast doubt on neuroscientists’ conclusions regarding the temporal sequence of brain processes
E indicate the reason that the results of the neuroscientists’ study were surprising

我选了C,答案选E。。。求解释。。。C咋错了。。。。

C是提供了一个解释...附加解释内容是出乎意料的
E是强调了这个解释是出乎意料的...
两个选项的侧重点不同啊...一个侧重提供解释，一个是强调出乎意料性...我们回到原文，in direct contradiction of the classical conception of free will可以发现classical conception of free will主要是来做对比的，不是用来当例子解释的...所以选E...
自己的一点理解...不知道这样对不对...讲清楚了没...
