The history of cats goes back forty million years. Cats today have the same traits as earlier ones: sharp teeth and a good sense of smell. However, some types of cats are very different, for example, the Saber-Tooth and the Cheetah. The saber-toothed cat is called Smilodon. Smilodon had two large teeth shaped like dagger. A full-grown Smilodon could weight 200kg. Although it was the size of a lion, it was a much better hunter. Today, we have ______ type of cat---the Cheetah. It has existed for about 18 million years. Unlike Smilodon, the Cheetah is a slender cat without large teeth. ... 請問第三段,we have後面那個空格要填another 還是 the other. 我的想法是,這文第一段結尾for example後面只舉了兩個種類, 所以空格處,我就選the other。但答案是給another. 請問是答案有誤,還是有another解讀的可能性。謝謝~ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.143.104.190

another無誤,the other是指剩下的那一種, 例如你講parents,
