B.     The select plays are accompanied by ancient commentaries because they were the best known（范围太小，best known的只是10个当中的some） of Euripides’ works.

C.     No commentaries were written about Euripides’ Electra in ancient times.（无从做此结论，因为没有一起出现不等于从来没有写过）

D.    Euripides’ Medea
            never appears in medieval manuscripts（范围太广，在现存的这18个当中没有出现过，不代表在所有的中世纪手稿中都没出现过）
        unaccompanied by ancient commentary.
                

E.     Euripides’ Electra does not appear accompanied by a commentary in
                        any extant medieval manuscript（注意前提和结论的具体性和范围，勿过度推论）.
