GWD8-Q22

When storing Renaissance oil paintings, museums conform to standards that call for careful control of the surrounding temperature and humidity, with variations confined within narrow margins. Maintaingin this environment is very costly, and recent research shows that even old oil paint is unaffected by wide flucurations in temperature and humidity. therefore, museums could relax their standards and save money without endangering their Renassance oil paintings.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

A. Renaissance paintings were created in conditions involving far greater fluctuations in temperature and humidity than those permitted by current standards.

B. Under the current standards that museums use when storing Renassiance oil paintings, those paintings do not deteriorate at all.

C. Museum collections typically do not contain tiems that are more likely to be vulnerable to fluctuations in temperature and humidity than Renaissance oil paintings.

D. None of the materials in Renaissance oil paintings other than the paint are vulnerable enough to relatively wide fluctuations in temperature and humidity to cause damage to the paintings.

E. Most Renaissance oil paintings are stored in museums located in regions near the regions where the paintings were created.

Correct answer: D

我可以很快的剔除A, B, E, 但覺得C勉強可以.
因為可能有其他東西需要保護, 所以光是paintings可以不用保護還不能確保museums可以不用維護temperature and humidity.
(The argument: 因為paint可以忍受溫度等變化, 所以museums可以不用保護paitings, 因此可以cost down.)

但D看不懂, 意思是這樣嗎?
在Renaissance oil paintings中只有paint可以忍受temperature and humidity的變化 ==> 所以不應該移除保護??

阿.... 原來是我看不懂vulnerable的意思.......

vulnerable: someone whos is vulnerable is easily harmed or hurt emotionally, physically, or morally.

painting畫
證據:paint塗料
說不定紙會受到溫度溼度的影響=>排除other materials
=>d

[Andrea1127]

補充" 吳"
這篇的關鍵(盲點)應該在於用"paint"推論"paintings"
所以assumption只要從這邊切入去補充邏輯即可
也就是paint可忍受溫濕度變化
但paintings不一定可以~因為paintings包括paint和other materials(ex.paper)
所以D選就是再加 以排除這些other materials
paint & other materials都不受溫濕度影響
可推paintings也可不受影響

另外
c選是不是有weaken呀??還有一點擴大議題範圍
其實我一開始做是
AE:無關
BC:weaken
無路可走
選D

(B)應該是無關之事吧!
就算在現在的保存條件之下可以完好無損, 那又跟不要恆溫恆溼,節省成本有甚麼關係呢?

(C)應該也是無關之事吧!
即使博物館有保存其他比paintings更脆弱的東東, 它們還是可以被分開存放阿!這和paintings是否要繼續恆溫恆溼,還是放寬標準,節省成本應該是沒有太大的關係吧?!

如有錯誤還請指正喔~

[hcgh]

把B這個assumption加入原題:
現在的標準下，paintings並不會損壞，
並不能保證當museum放寬標準後，paintings依然不損壞。

請注意題目的第一句話:When storing oil painting, museum.....
所以這裡只討論oil paiting 因此選項c有關於其他種collections就是無關主題所探討的irrelevant
我剛開始也是跟你或搞混c跟D,回頭看題目就恍然大悟了

[mandy-lo]

這題我左思右想，感覺很奇怪！
找這個結論所支持的ASSUMPTION？以下是我對每個選項的分析：

Ａ－表示Ｒ作品被創造在一種涉及在溫度和溼度上更大的波動的condition下→暗示Ｒ易於受到溫度和溼度的影響→WEAKEN結論(museums could relax….)
Ｂ－當儲存Ｒ oil paintings時，Museums遵守現存的標準，而那些畫因此沒有損壞→weaken結論(museums could relax….)，應該是要支持維持那個標準才對。
Ｃ－暗示R oil paintings更易於受到溫度和溼度的影響→WEAKEN結論(museums could relax….)
Ｅ－表示被保存的地方如何→I.R

以上每個選項都可大刀一揮，但ｄ選的確在後面的部份提到沒有物質會受到溫度和溼度的影響而導致對paintings有損壞，因此可推出museums可放寬標準，
但它又提到除了paint以外，那是表示paint會受溫度和溼度的影響嗎？那不就weaken museums不該放寬標準?????

實在搞不懂Ｄ選為何要提到Other than paint ????
仔細的重讀文章一遍，發現文章中有提到研究顯示：even old oil paint is unaffected by wide fluctuations in temperature and humidity.
但是這個old oil paint 與R oil paintings裡的paint又不一樣，如何可以排除Ｒ的這個paint不會受到溫度和溼度的影響？？

真的是腦袋愈轉愈彎……… !!!請各位大大幫忙指正我的思路哪裡出了問題？

[dibert8]

(D) 裡的 paint 的確是文章裡提到的那個 old oil paint --- i.e. the paint

感謝dibert8大大每次都能幫我解惑
其實這個D選，我是將它理解為在Ｒ油畫中無其他物質會受溫度和溼度的影響，除了paint以外
取非則會weaken結論，所以為正解沒錯，只是這個other than paint我搞不懂這句在ｄ選的作用在哪？

哈………..這題我搞懂了,文章己經提到even old oil paint is unaffected by wide fluctuations in temperature and humidity.
這句表示己將paint排除,那若剩下的其他物質會干擾則會weaken結論….

看到自己以前的白痴問題真想一頭撞電腦…..
