A. To indicate that some seeds are less likely to survive than others B. To point out that many angiosperms can be eaten C. To provide examples of blooming plants D. To illustrate the variety of coverings among angiosperm seeds Many millions of years after ferns evolved (but long before the Hawaiian Island were born from the sea), another kind of flora evolved on Earth: the seed-bearing plants. This was a wonderful biological invention. The seed has an outer coating that surrounds the genetic material of the new plant, and inside this covering is a concentrated supply of nutrients. Thus, the speeds chances of survival are greatly enhanced over those of the naked spore. One type of seed-bearing plant, the angiosperm, includes all forms of blooming vegetation. In the angiosperm the seeds are wrapped in an additional layer of covering. Some of these coats are hard-like the shell of a nut-for extra protection. Some are soft and tempting, likea peach or a cherry. In some angiosperm the seeds are equipped with gossamer wings, like the dandelion and milkweed seeds. These new characteristics offered better ways for the seeds to move to new habitats. They could travel through the air, float in water, and lie dormant for many months. 第一步，看题干中“why does the author mention...”我们判定为修辞目的题。再看题干的核心定位次“a nut, a peach, and a cherry”。 第二步，对照原文看到出题范围在两句句子中。“ Some of these coats are hard-like the shell of a nut-for extra protection. Some are soft and tempting, likea peach or a cherry.”在词汇没有障碍的 情况下，对于很多归纳能力强的学生，很快就从这两句中分析出共同的 特征词，即解题的核心词汇，“coats”，果皮。而且，举例的时候强 调了“hard”、“soft ”、“tempting”的不同特点，这就意味着使用“ a nut, a peach, and a cherry”要说明果皮的多种多样。更多详情咨询
