Sculpted boulders found at Lepenski Vir, an example of the earliest monumental art known from central
and Western Europe, includes 15 figures with human features similar to Upper forms and to Middle
Eastern stone figurines.
A. Vir, an example of the earliest monumental art known from central and western Europe, includes
B. Vir, examples of the monumental art known from central and western Europe, include earliest of
monumental art known from central and western Europe, include
C. Vir are examples of the earliest monumental art known from central and western Europe and includes
D. Vir are examples of the earliest monumental art known from central and western Europe, including


Logical predication; Agreement
The sentence is about sculpted boulders, a plural subject, which needs to be discussed in plural terms—as
examples of a category of ancient art.
A. The plural subject, sculpted boulders does not agree with the singular verb includes; the plural
subject boulders does not clearly agree with the singular appositive an example. If the boulders
together constitute a single example, it would be better to begin the sentence with a phrase such
as The group of boulders or at least The boulders.
B. Correct. The plural subject boulders agrees in number with both the plural appositive examples and
the plural verb, include.
C. The concrete, plural subject boulders requires a more specific category within the abstraction
art—e.g., earliest of monumental art forms.
D. The plural subject boulders does not agree with the singular verb includes.
E. The participle including seems to be introducing the nonsensical notion that figures with human
features belong to the category central and western Europe or the equally nonsensical claim that 15
figures with human features define an entire category of earliest monumental art known from central
and western Europe.


The correct answer is B.

A, Sculpted boulders做主语, an example 错误,
B, 正确
C, 是从earliest of开始的那个句子么? 不知道不管了
D and 后面includes是单数
E, including修饰的是central and western Europe, 不符合句意
