Excavation of the ancient city of Kourion on the island of Cyprus revealed a pattern of debris and collapsed buildings typical of towns devastated by earthquakes. Archaeologists have hypothesized that the destruction was due to a major earthquake known to have occurred near the island in A.D. 365.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the archaeologists' hypothesis?
(A) Bronze ceremonial drinking vessels that are often found in graves dating from years preceding and following A.D. 365 were also found in several graves near Kourion.
(B) No coins minted after A.D. 365 were found in Kourion, but coins minted before that year were found in abundance.
(C) Most modern histories of Cyprus mention that an earthquake occurred near the island in A.D. 365.
(D) Several small statues carved in styles current in Cyprus in the century between A.D. 300 and A.D. 400 were found in Kourion.
(E) Stone inscriptions in a form of the Greek alphabet that was definitely used in Cyprus after A.D. 365 were found in Kourion.
题目分析：原文还是比较简单的，强调了返现一个古城的建筑物是被一个地震摧毁的，问支持，A说在365年之后经常发现的drinking vessels也经常会在k附近找到，可是我的假设是k这里的building是被365年附近的地震摧毁的，你说365之后的vessel在我这里找到不能支持我的假设。B说365之后的产的coin在k这里没有，365之前产的发现了一大堆，这个显然让我想到365之前没什么事，365之后好像出事了，可以间接支持我的假设。C说大多数histories提到过365那年的地震，提到那年的地震也不证明这个地震摧毁的building吧，不能支持那个假设，D有一些在300和400之间的东西也在k这里发现了，那到底是365之前还是之后呢？都有可能，如果都在365之前有在365之后没有就可以支持，可你又没说，我就不知道了，杀。E说365之后的东西在k这里发现了，可是365前这东西有吗？还是没说，如果365前没有就可以支持，发散了，杀。
