A newly discovered painting seems to be the work of one of two 17th-century artists, either the northern German Johannes Drechen or the Frenchman Louis Birelle, who sometimes painted in the same style as Drechen. Analysis of the carved picture frame, which has been identified as the painting’s original 17th-century frame, showed that it is made of wood found widely in northern Germany at the time, but rare in the part of France where Birelle lived. This shows that the painting is most likely the work of Drechen.
Which of the following is an assumption that the argument requires?
选项
A、The frame was made from wood local to the region where the picture was painted.
B、Drechen is unlikely to have ever visited the home region of Birelle in France.
C、Sometimes a painting so closely resembles others of its era that no expert is able to confidently decide who painted it.
D、The painter of the picture chose the frame for the picture.
E、The carving style of the picture frame is not typical of any specific region of Europe.
答案
A
解析
Argument Construction
Situation A 17th-century painting has been discovered that was either by Johannes Drechen from northern Germany or by French artist Louis Birelle. The painting’s original picture frame is made of wood widely found in 17th-century northern Germany but rare in the French region where Birelle lived. So the painting was probably the work of Drechen.
Reasoning Which of the five statements is an assumption required by the argument? If the painting is correctly attributed to Drechen, then the wood that the frame was made from probably came from the region where Drechen lived and did his painting. The argument assumes that the specific wood used in the frame came from northern Germany rather than from some other place where that wood might have been found, and where (for all we know) Birelle might have visited.
A Correct. Without an assumption equivalent to this, the argument would fail.
B This is not a required assumption (unlike, for example, the following: Drechen did not give the picture frame to Birelle as a gift).
C This is a truism but is not required to make the argument’s conclusion well supported.
D This does not need to be assumed; Drechen could, for example, have simply asked a local frame-maker to make a frame for his picture.
E Neither the affirmation nor the denial of this statement is needed to underpin the argument.
The correct answer is A.
