参考译文
当地面上什么东西都看不到，考古学家怎么知道该去哪里寻找他们要找的东西呢通常，他们会在大片区域做测量和取样(做实验性的挖掘)来决定在哪里挖掘会得到最有用的信息。测量和取样对于了解包含考古遗址的更广阔地貌也变得非常重要。
一些考古遗址很容易被发现一例如，希腊雅典的帕特农神庙，埃及的吉萨金字塔以及英格兰南部的巨石阵。但是这些遗址是特例。，大多数考古遗址是通过认真的搜寻才找到的，而还有许多其他的遗址是意外发观的。奥杜威峡谷，坦桑尼亚的早期原始人类遗址，是被一个捉蝴蝶的人发现的，他l911年跌入奥杜威峡谷的深谷。数以千计的阿兹特克文物是在20世纪70年代挖掘墨西哥城的地铁时发现的。
为了发现遗址，考古学家现在严重依赖系统的测量方法和各种各样的高科技工具和技术。机载技术，例如由飞机或太空飞船携带的各种各样的雷达和拍照设备使考古学家们能够无需挖掘就了解到地下埋藏着什么。航空勘测可以发现遗址所在的大致区域，或者更大的埋藏特征，例如古建筑或田野。
地面测量使考古学家精确地找到挖掘应该会成功的地点。大多数地面测量包括大量的步行、寻找地面的线索，例如陶器的细小碎片。它们经常包括在一片区域内选取定点进行挖掘取样。考古学家还能通过使用诸如地面雷达、磁场纪录和金属探测器等技术找到遗迹。考古学家通常使用计算机绘制遗址地图以及附近的地形图。二维或三维的地图对规划挖掘、展示遗址样貌和展示考古研究结果来说都是有用的工具。
测量可能包括单一的大型定居点或者完整的地形。曾经.许多研究者通过航空拍摄和徒步测量，在洪都拉斯的古代科潘玛雅城发现了几百处小村庄和定居点。最后生成的定居地地图展示了当科潘瓦解时，围绕城市的农村人口的分布和密度如何在公元500年至850年之间戏剧性地变迁。
答案及解析
说明考古学家使用测量和取样的方法进行考古发现，浏览所有选项，只有C项适合作为主题段，先提出全文要解决的问题，然后给出总括性的解释。
53.G【解析】本题是顺接关系题。该空格位于全文第五段。空格之前的E段指出“为了发现遗址，考古学家现在严重依赖系统的测量方法和各种各样的高科技工具和技术”，并举例说明了“机载技术”和“航空勘测”两种测量方法，而G段继续介绍地面测量和计算机绘制遗址地图以及附近的地形图在考古过程中的重要作用，与前段构成顺接关系。‘
54.D【解析】本题是顺接关系题。该段位于全文第六段。空格之前已经介绍了除了少数特例之外，大多数考古遗址都是在考古学家的努力寻找之下发现的，并且介绍了考古学家运用各种测量方法和先进的科学技术做出考古发现，而D段继续介绍测量的不同方式，包括单一的定居点或者包括完整的地域风貌，并举例说明考古学家如何通过测绘单一定居点的方式完成考古发现。
55.B【解析】本题是顺接关系题。该空格位于全文第七段。空格之前的D段已经介绍了考古测量可以包括单一的定居点或者完整的地域风貌，并举例说明考古学家如何通过测绘单一定居点的方式完成考古发现，B项中的inanothercase正是空格之前D段中inonecase的顺接关键词，同时该段也举例介绍了另外一种测量方式，即通过测绘完整的地域风貌完成考古发现。
