  托福阅读修辞目的题:Roman Pottery

  【Paragraph 3】As impressive as the quality of Roman pottery is its sheer massive quantity. When considering quantities, we would ideally like to have some estimates for overall production from particular sites of pottery manufacture and for overall consumption at specific settlements. Unfortunately, it is in the nature of the archaeological evidence, which is almost invariable only a sample of what once existed, that such figures will always be elusive. However, no one who has ever worked in the field would question the abundance of Roman pottery, particularly in the Mediterranean region. This abundance is notable in Roman settlements (especially urban sites) where the labor that archaeologists have to put into the washing and sorting of potsherds (fragments of pottery) constitutes a high proportion of the total work during the initial phases of excavation.(Characteristics of Roman Pottery)

  The author mentions the work of archaeologists in paragraph 3 in order to

  ○ support the idea that pottery was produced in large quantities by the Romans

  ○ illustrate how hard it is for archaeologists to find complete pieces of Roman pottery

  ○ contrast archaeological sites in Roman urban areas with other sites in the Mediterranean

  ○ explain why the quantities of pottery found vary significantly from one site to another
