一道SAT阅读,
Rivers carry water,for instance,but the region of the Great Plains is by its nature arid—not so arid as the deserts,although for a long time the Great Plains were regarded as a desert,but arid enough to inhibit the growth of trees,except along rivers.You could no more know the Great Plains by canoeing up the Missouri than you could see the Sonoran Desert by rafting down the Colorado.
In lines 26-32 (“Rivers carry ...Colorado”),the author implies that viewing the
plains from the prospect of a river might lead one to conclude that the plains are
(A) less arid than they actually are
(B) less populous than they actually are
(C) rising more rapidly toward the mountains than they actually do
(D) not fertile enough to sustain the growth of trees
(E) not as arid as the desert
请问答案为什么是A啊,我觉得E也没有错啊?

这道题没有看到答案我也会做错.从题意上分析“the author implies that viewing the plains from the prospect of a river might lead one to conclude that the plains are” 的意思是什么呢?这个题没有特指the Great Plains,只是说一般的河流两侧会有的plains,那么从第一句来看,“尽管河流带动水流动,但以XXXX地区来讲,这个地区本身是干旱的”所以,可以推出这么的结论,“一般人都会以为河流两岸的平原不那么干旱,因为有河流本身带来的水(提供水源)”这正是题目的问题所要问的.所以再看一下题目“省略”,因此选择A而不选择E.不知道我的理解正确否?
