The cause of the wreck of the ship Edmund Fitzgerald in a severe storm on Lake Superior is still unknown. When the sunken wreckage of the vessel was found, searchers discovered the hull in two pieces lying close together. The storm's violent waves would have caused separate pieces floating even briefly on the surface to drift apart. Therefore, the breakup of the hull can be ruled out as the cause of the sinking.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
Ships as large as the Edmund Fitzgerald rarely sink except in the most violent weather.
Underwater currents at the time of the storm did not move the separated pieces of the hull together again.
Pieces of the hull would have sunk more quickly than the intact hull would have.
The waves of the storm were not violent enough to have caused the ship to break up on the surface.
If the ship broke up before sinking, the pieces of the hull would not have remained on the surface for very long.
纠结于AB之间,错选A
现在想想A: ship sink不sink,跟天气的关系,好像跟hull怎么碎的没有之间关系,反正现在是碎了,讨论的是被摔碎的,还是劈碎的
B:更直观影响了断定hull怎么碎的界定,水下活动会不会影响这个界定
