A A sculptor must work with talented assistants B The subject of a sculpture should be derived from classical stories C The material is an important element in a sculpture D Designing a sculpture is a more creative activity than carving it Question 45: The word “dictates” in paragraph is closest in meaning to D records A includes B determines C reads aloud Question 46: How does direct carving differ from the nineteenth-century tradition of sculpture?
