Passage
A passage about archaeological fragments says a broken bowl
is valuable not because it is complete but because the break exposes clay layers, repair marks, and traces of daily use. Damage becomes evidence. Which strategy best handles this reversal?
A
Assume the bowl is less valuable because it is broken, while relying on that single cue to decide among the choices.
B
Treat repair marks as decorative rather than evidentiary details, and continue without a separate check of the relevant evidence.
C
Mark the rejected value of completeness, slow at the evidence revealed by damage, and check answers against how brokenness helps interpretation.
D
Focus on imagining the complete bowl and ignore the exposed layers, and use that approach as the basis for the response.
