【题目】Woven baskets characterized by a particular distinctive pattern have previously been found only in the immediate vicinity of the prehistoric village of Palea and therefore were believed to have been unique to the Palean people. Recently, however, archaeologists discovered such a Palean basket in Lithos, an ancient village across the Brim River from Palea. The Brim River is very deep and broad, and so the ancient Paleans could only have crossed it by boat, but there is no evidence that the Paleans had boats. And boats capable of carrying groups of people and cargo were not developed until thousands of years after the Palean people disappeared. Moreover, Paleans would have had no need to cross the riverthe woods around Palea are full of nuts, berries, and small game. It follows that the so-called Palean baskets were not unique to Palea.
【中文翻译】一种具有独特花纹的编织篮子以前只在史前村庄P的临近地区发现过,因而被认为是P居民所独有的。然而最近,考古学家在一个与P存隔着一条叫做B的河流的村庄L发现了一个这样的P篮子。B的河水很深很宽,所以古代P人只能坐船穿过它,但没有证据表明P的人拥有船只。而且能够运载大量人和货物的船只直到P人消失几千年之后才出现。而且,P人应该没有必要穿过这条河流――P周围的林地有丰富的果实和小动物。这表明这种所谓的P篮子不是P村的人所独有的。
