Q18

A medieval manuscript called L contains all eighteen extant tragedies

by the Greek playwright Euripides. Of these, ten called the “select

plays,” are accompanied in L by ancient commentaries and also

appear in other medieval manuscripts; this group includes some of

Euripides’ best-known works, including the Medea. The other eight,

which appear in alphabetical order, without commentary. The Electra is

one of the alphabeticals.

Which of the following can be reliably concluded on the basis of the

Statements given?

A.     Only Euripides’ best-known works are accompanied by ancient

commentaries in extant medieval manuscripts.

B.     The select plays are accompanied by ancient commentaries

because they were the best known of Euripides’ works.

C.     No commentaries were written about Euripides’ Electra in

ancient times.

D.     Euripides’ Medea never appears in medieval manuscripts

unaccompanied by ancient commentary.

E.      Euripides’ Electra does not appear accompanied by a com-

mentary in any extant medieval manuscript.(文章没说啊)
