But if you have seen the fossil of an ancient bird called the archaeopteryx , you may have noticed some similarities in form between the archaeopteryx and some dinosaurs.Recently,dinosaur fossils which share many properties with birds have been found(another/after/one). Some of them are said to have had feathers on thier body, In view of this evidence, more and more scientists have come to think that birds have evolved from dinosaurs of some kind. If dinosaurs hadn`t existed, there wouldn`t be any birds today. It`s a real surprise that two animals that look so different are so closely related to each other.

- 【英文解釈】in which to do it
In English one can say “I went to town” without indicating the means used to get there. The native American Navaho people would have no equivalent of the general “went” but would need to specify whether he walked, rode a horse, rode in a wagon, a car, a train or a plane. On the other hand there are things you cannot be general about in English unless you use extra words in which to do it. 最後の５語 in which to do it について質問します。 do it とは何を指すのでしょうか？ whichの先行詞はextra wordsですので、最後の５語は解釈上to do it in extra wordsとなるのですが、doを主節のbe general aboutから連想してgeneralizeと見定めると、itがthingsを指すことになり単複が一致せず矛盾してしまいます… doは別の単語を指すのでしょうか？ それとも、itが複数を受ける例もあるのでしょうか？ どうか皆様の叡智をお貸しください。
