Biologists generally agree that birds and dinosaurs
are somehow related to one another. The agreement
ends there. Hypotheses regarding dinosaurian and
avian evolution are unusually diverse—and often at
odds with one another. Confusion consequently
reigns over a broad spectrum of unanswered
questions dealing with avian origins and the biology
of dinosaurs and early birds. This confusion has been
exacerbated by a paucity of serious attempts to
synthesize and evaluate available data on the details
of avian and dinosaurian evolution. Too often, the job
of summarizing current knowledge of these subjects
has fallen to well-meaning but naïve lay authors or
reporters. Consequently, both the public and the
scientific community have often been misled by
widespread dissemination of sensational but weakly
founded hypotheses.

For the following question, consider each of the
choices separately and select all that apply.
22. The passage suggests that which of the following
could help remedy the problem described in
A. An article written by a biologist for the general
public summarizing current theories about
avian and dinosaurian evolution
B. Aclose examination of available data on avian
and dinosaurian evolution
C. A new hypothesis regarding the connection
between avian and dinosaurian evolution

GRE practice book上的一道题,答案是AB。然后我选的是B,原因是原文里说“Too often, the job
of summarizing current knowledge of these subjects has fallen to well-meaning but naïve lay authors or reporters.”所以我觉得作者对summerizing是持负态度的,于是就没有选A。

但是 too often 前面都在讲 要SUMMARIZING 的问题啊,我觉得too often 后面应该是讲的一个现象吧,不代表作者的态度,我读完这段直接就选了AB:)

因为前面说有很多unanswered questions,又说a paucity of serious attempts to synthesize and evaluate,所以我觉得要说summerize有用的话也至少要加个条件什么的,然后选项说的是general public summarizing,于是我觉得不该选这个。

这两段在写缺陷,1是说尝试写总结的材料少 2是说如果没有感受到原本意图
那么A是说一个作者的总结 相当于增加了1 B是深入研究已有的数据 相当于增加2。

我理解的是第一句话说serious attempt的人很少,然后第二句解释大多数时候 不serious的summarize是什么情况,然后A没有提到是怎么个summarize的,只是泛泛的讲了下。

你可以这么理解 A是针对前面的paucity
B是针对serious
