archaeopteryx词根词缀

But the research team, led by Dr. Angela Milner, a paleontologist at the British museum, wrote that until their investigation of Archaeopteryx, "little was understood about the extent to which its brain and special senses were adapted for flight."

但是由大英博物馆古生物学家杰拉米尔纳博士领导的研究团队写道：直到他们研究始祖鸟，对于始祖鸟的脑和特殊感觉因应飞行而发生了何种程度的改变的认识尚知之甚少。

Previous studies of the feathered wing and tail of Archaeopteryx and its birdlike anatomy, including a pronounced wishbone, supported the prevailing view of experts that it was capable of some degree of powered flight.

之前关于始祖鸟带羽毛的翅膀，尾巴以及它类似鸟类骨骼的研究，支持专家们公认的观点，即它能做某种程度的动力飞行。

In a statement issued by the museum, Dr. Milner said, "If flight was this advanced by the time Archaeopteryx was around, then were birds actually flying millions of years earlier than we'd previously thought?"

在博物馆编写的综述中，米尔纳博士写到，如果出现始祖鸟的时候飞行就已经到了如此高级的阶段，那么鸟类是否实际上比我们先前考虑的时间还要早数百万年就飞行了呢？
