Reading the passage
The account moves from national culture to the artists' different styles and then the demands of wall-sized paintings. This asks for a stated characteristic. I'll check each detail against that account rather than fill in what I associate with murals.
Working the answers
- A
The paintings include history, customs, myths, and geography. Commenting on their own period doesn't establish that current events make up most of their subject matter.
- B
Public-building walls don't tell us that the art can be viewed only outdoors. No such restriction is stated.
- C
The move from small easel paintings to murals required adjustments, including broader gestures and different arrangements for viewers. C overlooks those changes.
- D
The third paragraph explicitly describes the artists' distinct styles. A shared national interest isn't stylistic uniformity.
- ECorrect
The works were designed for “many different vantage points” and for people moving across in front of them. More than one angle is a straightforward restatement. We don't need the exact word angle to find the support.
