Read the following summaries of two arguments:
Passage A argues that the transition to standardized coinage was driven primarily by the state's need to efficiently collect taxes across a vast empire, rather than to facilitate local trade.
Passage B posits that the development of bright plumage in certain bird species evolved primarily as a mechanism for long-distance species recognition in dense forests, rather than for attracting mates in close proximity.
Match each element from Passage A's argument with its direct structural counterpart in Passage B's argument.
- Standardized coinageBright plumage
- The state's need to collect taxesLong-distance species recognition
- Facilitating local tradeAttracting mates in close proximity
Cevap
Standardized coinage maps to Bright plumage; The state's need to collect taxes maps to Long-distance species recognition; Facilitating local trade maps to Attracting mates in close proximity.
The correct matches perfectly align the logical components of both arguments. In both passages, an author presents a phenomenon (coinage and plumage), attributes it to a primary functional cause (tax collection and species recognition), and expressly dismisses an alternative or commonly assumed explanation (local trade and attracting mates).
