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?

Only Euripides’s best-known works are accompanied by ancient commentaries in extant medieval manuscripts

The select plays are accompanied by ancient commentaries because they were the best known of Euripides’s works.

No commentaries were written about Euripides’s Electra in ancient times.

Euripides’s Medea never appears in medieval manuscripts unaccompanied by ancient commentary.

Euripides’s Electra does not appear accompanied by a commentary in any extant medieval manuscript.

为什么选E呢？我觉得E和C是一个意思呀，请教了。

感觉这个题读起来有些别扭，可能是名字有点多。这类题选项中有这么多绝对化的词应该比较少见。

我用排除法，觉得只有e可能正确（没能肯定的推出来）。

c肯定有问题，appear 和written 不同的，文中提到了前者，而后者没提。而且，没看到不等于没写出来，也许，有人写了自己收藏呢？

潜龙勿用

答案应该是E.

Electra not accompanied by a commentary 与 No commentaries were written about Euripides’s Electra in ancient times 不是一个意思. 前者的意思是说: Electra 没有附上a commentary,而后者的意思却是说:No commentaries were written about  Electra ,而实际上有可能是: commentaries were written about  Electra but not accompanied by a commentary.

写了一堆，结果发铁被告知出错。痛苦。

简单的说吧，C,E在于ancient times和medival的区别。C把范围扩大了。E可以从文中它的对立方推出，are accompanied in L by ancient commentaries and also appear in other medieval manuscripts 。

看C，No commentaries were written about Euripides’s Electra in ancient times， 看出这几个in的区别了吧。

有道理，谢谢楼上的sensornet！
