java rhinoceros_求问一道曼哈顿模考题，关键词：Javan rhinoceros

答案是B我选的E 因为我觉得E这个答案与原文的关系近一些，但是看来出题人想要一个更远的关系。话说回来，这种题目的选项与原文的关系远近的把握应该怎么掌控请问各位前辈？

官方解释如下：

The last sentence of the passage states: “Human benevolence may prove little better for these rhinos than past human maltreatment.” “These rhinos” refers to the Indonesian herd; the author has just told us that, due to “the lack of human disturbance,” the Indonesian herd doesn’t have as much access to its preferred food source. The author is generally reinforcing the idea that the outlook is not positive for the Javan rhinos.

(A) While it may be true that the Indonesian herd has better survival odds, that message is not demonstrated by the last sentence of the passage; rather, the third-to-last sentence gives some positive information about the Indonesian herd’s chances for survival.

(B) CORRECT. The third sentence claims that “The decline of the species may have progressed too far to be reversed.” Towards the end of the paragraph, the author provides some positive information about the Indonesian rhinos (“still thought to have sufficient genetic diversity to survive”) but then provides negative information about the food available to the rhinos. The final sentence, then, reinforces the idea first introduced in the second sentence.

(C) It does seem as though we might infer from the passage that the farmers and hunters are (probably) no longer killing the rhinos, but the last sentence of the passage does not actually tell us this.

(D) The author claims only that “The decline of the species may have progressed too far to be reversed.” The author does not claim that the rhinos will definitely become extinct.

(E) While this might be true in general, the final sentence of the passage was not included in order to make a comparison between human benevolence and human maltreatment. Rather, the sentence was included in order to continue the theme introduced earlier in the passage (that the rhinos may not be able to survive).
