reading-TPO19 The Roman Army's Impact … - 英檢

第九題
A：錯在最高峰應是在AD.80，而Emperor Hadrian的統治時期仍在AD117-138
B：文中有提到”most units raised in Britain went elsewhere on the European
continent,”雖然有一個駐在morocco,因此選項most of the units recruited in
Britain were sent to morocco是錯的
C：文中有提到”By he later Roman period, frontier garrisons were only rarely
transferred, service in units became effectively hereditary. ”這意味士兵一旦在
某軍旅就鮮少異動，因此選C是對的
D：錯在文中沒提到從”neighboring province”轉過來


第十題
A：不能選是因文中有提到”as a man obtained hereditary Roman citizenship on
retirement after service in an auxiliary regiment.”這意味有「父傳子」的慣例
B：不能選是因文中有提到”forts were no longer populated (with soldiers) or
maintained at full strength.”
C：不能選是因為文中有提到”By the late Roman period, frontier garrison were
only rarely transferred.”
D：選D是因文中沒有提到前線軍隊更有效率及精進

※ 引述《JohnJoe ()》之銘言：
: 麻煩各位的幫忙了~
: Paragraph 4:
: The army also provided a means of personal advancement for auxiliary soldiers
: recruited from the native peoples, as a man obtained hereditary Roman
: citizenship on retirement after service in an auxiliary regiment. Such units
: recruited on an ad hoc (as needed) basis from the area in which they were
: stationed, and there was evidently large-scale recruitment within Britain.
: The total numbers were at least 12,500 men up to the reign of the emperor
: Hadrian (A.D. 117-138), with a peak around A.D. 80. Although a small
: proportion of the total population, this perhaps had a massive local impact
: when a large proportion of the young men were removed from an area. Newly
: raised regiments were normally transferred to another province from whence it
: was unlikely that individual recruits would ever return. Most units raised in
: Britain went elsewhere on the European continent, although one is recorded in
: Morocco. The reverse process brought young men to Britain, where many
: continued to live after their 20 to 25 years of service, and this added to
: the cosmopolitan Roman character of the frontier population. By the later
: Roman period, frontier garrisons (groups of soldiers) were only rarely
: transferred, service in units became effectively hereditary, and forts were
: no longer populated or maintained at full strength.
: 9. According to paragraph 4, which of the following is true of Britain’s
: auxiliary regiments of the Roman army?
: ○Membership in these regiments reached its highest point during the reign of
: the emperor Hadrian.
: ○Most of the units recruited in Britain were sent to Morocco and other
: stations outside Europe.
: ○Soldiers served in the regiments for many years and after retirement
: generally stayed where they had been stationed.
: ○Most of the regiments stationed on the frontier were new units transferred
: from a neighboring province.
: 10. According to paragraph 4, all of the following changes could be seen in
: the frontier garrisons by the later Roman period EXCEPT:
: ○Membership in the units passed from father to son.
: ○Fewer soldiers were stationed at the forts.
: ○Soldiers usually were not transferred to different locations.
: ○Frontier units became more effective and proficient.
: 我想請教各位的是，第9題為什麼是選擇C呢?
: 然後第十題的答案是D，請問是不是從By the later Roman period至最後就是答案的所在
: 呢??
: 麻煩各位高手幫我解答了，謝謝^^
