D. THE SECOND SENTENCE PROVIDES THE ANSWER

11. d. The second sentence provides the answer: Hogarth “was renowned for prints that revealed themoral lapses of eighteenth-century England.” The passage does not indicate that Hogarth was the firstto tell stories through prints (choice a) or that he defied authorities by portraying particular subjectsin his prints (choice b). His prints may have often revealed the hardships of life in his time (choice c),but the example ofThe Rake’s Progressalso shows that he dealt with the life of the privileged who oftendid not have to experience those hardships. The passage says that Hogarth pointed out problems in hissociety, but nothing indicates that his work inspired change in his society (choice e).
