不太明白题干第一句什么意思，尤其是to what end are all the arts of life，请指教，谢谢！
If the artificial is not better than the natural, to what end are all the arts of life? To dig, to plow, to build, to wear clothes—all are direct violations of the injunction to follow nature.
Which one of the following is an assumption made by the author of the passage?
(A) The arts of life have no useful end.
(B) The artificial is not better than the natural.
(C) Digging, plowing, building, and wearing clothes are better than nature.
(D) The injunction to follow nature should not be violated.
(E) The arts of life are indirect means of following nature.
答案C
我个人猜测了下:
如果说艺术的东西不如自然的东西,那么所有生命的艺术将走向一个什么样的终点呢? 挖东西.....穿衣,这些都是违背了自然间的连接......
也就是说我们不该认为艺术的没用,我们穿衣服等等都算作艺术的东西,如果光强调自然,那我们就不该穿衣服,这个后果很不堪设想.
所以,题目中暗含了个假设就是这些作者所说到的行为都是比自然的东西好的.
本人语文也很烂,谈点个人感觉,有错请NN指正
