Excavations of the Roman city of Sepphoris have uncovered numerous detailed mosaics depicting several readily identifiable animal species: a hare, a partridge, and various Mediterranean fish. Oddly, most of the species represented did not live in the Sepphoris region when these mosaics were created. Since identical motifs appear in mosaics found in other Roman cities, however, the mosaics of Sepphoris were very likely created by traveling artisans from some other part of the Roman Empire. 逻辑:S城的挖掘发现了很多详细的图案,描绘了很多物种;(转折),当时这些物种并不存在于S城→由于相似的图案出现在其他城市,S城的图案很可能是来自其他地方的旅行artisans创造的 Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends? A. The Sepphoris mosaics are not composed exclusively of types of stones found naturally in the Sepphoris area. B. There is no single region to which all the species depicted in the Sepphoris mosaics are native. C. No motifs appear in the Sepphoris mosaics that do not also appear in the mosaics of some other Roman city. D. All of the animal figures in the Sepphoris mosaics are readily identifiable as representations of known species. E. There was not a common repertory of mosaic designs with which artisans who lived in various parts of the Roman Empire were familiar.
