试题解析
48.A【精析】该题为推理题。问题中的“argument”指的是第一段第六句“Therefore it is commonly argued that Africa's traditional slavery was mild compared to the trans-Atlantic slave trade organized by the 2009年9月参考答案及精析第5页(共12页) Europeans.”即人们普遍认为,相对于欧洲人组织的跨大西洋的奴隶贸易来说,非洲传统的奴隶制度要温和一些,接下来“This argu- ment, however,can be carried too far.”即作者认为该观点有失偏颇。根据46题我们知道非洲的奴隶制度与欧洲的奴隶制度本质上都是一致的,因此非洲的奴隶制度同样是不人道的,故选择A 项。
