Answer:
D. As art became defined by its monetary value, artists used
shocking or destructive acts to challenge people's
assumptions and expectations about their art.
Explanation:
The text talks about the different artists such as Marcel Duchamp, Francis Picabia, or Robert Rauschenberg that used shocking or destructive acts through the years as a rebellion against what people considered art and the relation that this said art had with money. They showed society that art is not only paintings preserved in a museum or that have to be attached to large amounts of money, state figures, or the church with their unconventional art.
The answer would have to be D, unchallenging due to its context. The author is describing a final word that is described as something that is obvious (the reader can’t ignore it).
Therefore, within that context, the adjective would have to be something that “grabs” the readers’ attention. That would obviously rule out commonplace, which, by name alone doesn’t catch you as something unable to ignore. Oddly that answers B and C are the same, but can also be ruled out quickly within context. “Comfort” also suggests that it is almost redundant, but certainly not something to keep an audiences’ attention.
The only answer, therefore, that answer that makes sense within context, as well as providing an eye-keeping ending for a conclusion paragraph would be unchallenging.
