Question ID:PT22 S2 Q20 Passage:Pieces of music consist of sounds and silences presented to the listener in a temporal order.  A painting, in contrast, is not presented one part at a time to the viewer; there is thus no particular path that the viewer's eye must follow in order to "read" the painting.  Therefore, an essential distinction between the experiences of hearing music and of viewing paintings is that hearing music has a temporal dimension but viewing a painting has none. Stem:The reasoning in the argument is flawed because Correct Answer Choice:EChoice A:the argument does not allow for the possibility of being immersed in experiencing a painting without being conscious of the passage of time Choice B:the argument is based on a very general definition of music that does not incorporate any distinctions among particular styles Choice C:the argument fails to bring out the aspects of music and painting that are common to both as forms of artistic expression Choice D:relying on the metaphor of "reading" to characterize how a painting is viewed presupposes the correctness of the conclusion to be drawn on the basis of that characterization Choice E:the absence of a particular path that the eye must follow does not entail that the eye follows no path
