It is widelyassumed that a museum is helped financially when a generous patron donates apotential exhibit. In truth, however, donated objects require storage space, whichis not free, and routine conservation, which is rather expensive. Therefore,such gifts exacerbate rather than lighten the demands made on a museum’sfinancial resources.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens theargument above?
(A) To keeppatrons well disposed, a museum will find it advisable to put at least somedonated objects on exhibit rather than merely in storage.
(B) Thepeople who are most likely to donate valuable objects to a museum are also thepeople who are most likely to make cash gifts to it.
(C) A museumcannot save money by resorting to cheap storage under less than adequateconditions, because so doing would drive up the cost of conservation.
(D) Patronsexpect a museum to keep donated objects in its possession rather than to raisecash by selling them.(E)
(E) Objectsdonated by a patron to a museum are often of such importance that the museumwould be obliged to add them to its collection through purchase if necessary.作者: queenie924 时间: 2011-4-14 21:06

捐助的物品通常非常重要,如果必要博物馆会将它们放置在购买物品区一起管理,这就解决了一个本质问题“donated objects require storage space“,经济负担不再。作者: queenie924 时间: 2011-4-14 21:06

捐助贵重物品的人通常也会捐助现金,这里并没有提到贵重物品在所捐物品中的比例,无法比较。作者: rebecw 时间: 2011-4-15 06:46
