Years before the advent of plate tectonics―the widely accepted theory, developed in the mid-1960's, the holds that the major features of Earth's surface are created by the horizontal motions of Earth's outer shell, or lithosphere―a similar theory was rejected by the geological community. In 1912, Alfred Wegener proposed, in a widely debated theory that came to be called continental drift, that Earth's continents were mobile. To most geologists today, Wegener's The origin of Continents and Oceans appears an impressive and prescient document, containing several of the essential presumptions underlying plate tectonics theory: the horizontal mobility of pieces of Earth's crust; the essential difference between oceanic and continental crust; and a causal connection between horizontal displacements and the formation of mountain chains. Yet despite the considerable overlap between Wegener's concepts and the later widely embraced plate tectonics theory, and despite the fact that continental drift theory presented a possible solution to the problem of the origin of mountains at a time when existing explanations were seriously in doubt, in its day Wegener's theory was rejected by the vast majority of geologists. Most geologists and many historians today believe that Wegener's theory was rejected because of its lack of an adequate mechanical basis. Stephen Jay Gould, for example, argues that continental drift theory was rejected because it did not explain how continents could move through an apparently solid oceanic floor. However, as Anthony Hallam has pointed out, many scientific phenomena, such as the ice ages, have been accepted before they could be fully explained. The most likely cause for the rejection of continental drift―a cause that has been largely ignored because we consider Wegener's theory to have been validated by the theory of plate tectonics―is the nature of the evidence that was put forward to support it. Most of Wegener's evidence consisted of homologies―similarities of patterns and forms based on direct observations of rocks in the field, supported by the use of hammers, hand lenses, and field notebooks. In contrast, the data supporting plate tectonics were impressively geophysical―instrumental determinations of the physical properties of Earth garnered through the use of seismographs, magnetometers, and computers. 我选了E considerable overlap前面是despite XXX说明这个是个成就，他和后面的反对W的观点的事情是相反的。所以感觉D说用这个词的目的是解释为啥W理论。请老师辨析DE！谢谢！

提问唐老师，这题错选E，题干最后一句Rexecutive 说赢了bid会给公司带来利润，E选项有bid和price就选了，为什么D有关？E无关？

提问唐老师，这道题完全没有思路，看题干最后一句，跟选项如何对应？

提问唐老师，这道题我的做题思路是：题目说一下选项weaken了作者的一个理论，看题干最后一句，我理解的阅读重心是“从安全层面出发的不充分会导致很多后果”，最后对比选项，因为出现“equipment-storage building”我感觉题干没讲就排除BCE，选D，思路哪有问题？

提问唐老师，488根据题目理解为“B和UEP不同意什么看法”回原文定位左边红框地方，但是感觉读下来b并不支持UEP，就有点懵，求问唐老师这题正确解题思路？489，根据题目在讲B的研究，不太清楚定位哪里，求问这题解题思路？

提问唐老师，492根据“scholars”定位到原文第三段“some scholars”理解那句话的意思为“G在自己建造的一个东西的基础上创造了一个东西”，对比选项选的D，提问老师思路的问题出在哪里？

提问唐老师，先跟您说下我的做题思路，首先看题目理解问题是“作者比较可能同意以下关于mtn的？”然后会原文定位到最后一句，有一个impossible，对比选项选了一个有不可能意思的，选了E。后来对答案选D，想问下老师这个思路哪里出了问题？D中past、today‘s gm提到了吗？

小梅老师，选项2老师说除数要大于余数因此余数是0或1，不能确定，但余数应该不可以为0吧，这样的话选项二可以求出余数是1。选D

唐老师，还有这一道题，我是对比范围大小做的，排除了ABCD选的E，但是答案选D，是因为D中“bank对美国经济的影响”比E中“信用卡的扩张对经济的影响”范围更大吗？

唐老师，这是上一道的题目，上面好像没有发出来。

提问唐瑭老师，题目没有看太懂，只知道是一个bank的反面在south做了个啥现在问bank，会原文定位到红框里最后一句话，最后对比选项选了b，求问老师这道题的解题思路？
