Archaeologists use technology to analyze ancient sites. It is likely that this technology will advance considerably in the near future, allowing archaeologists to gather more information than is currently possible.

Therefore, in order to maximize the potential for gathering knowledge in the long run, a team of archaeologists plans to delay the examination of a newly excavated site.

Which of the following would be most useful to investigate for the purpose of evaluating the plan’s prospects for achieving its goal?

Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the above justification of the claim that earthlike worlds form a low percentage of the total number of planets?

请金老师帮忙回答: 考点:转折,but并列,时态。 主句:public places had installed electric lighting, 所以我认为but 转折后面也应该用过去完成时,从而在A,E的比较中排除了A选了E。 问题:A,E where前的表述是排除的点吗?还是只能通过时态来排除?
