centrifugal engine of modern culture turns faster and faster, spinning off
fashions, ideologies, religions, artistic movements, economic theories,
cults, and dogmas in fabulous profusion. Hence, modern culture threatens the
national identities that now exist in the world.
Which one of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the commentator'
s argument?

发帖数: 38 | 2 The conclusion of the argument could be understood as that a staggering
number of subcultures threatens the national identitie, which indicates a
conflicting relationship between the two concept. However, the answer choice
suggests the opposite, that national identity is not threatened by the
modern culture, but contributes to the development of it.
What do you say? | A*********r

发帖数: 82 | 4 Can you explain a little more about the assumption you discovered?
I didnt see any nexus between subcultures and fashions, ideologies,
religions, artistic movements, economic theories,cults, and dogmas in
fabulous profusion.
The only word makes me feel that is the right answer is "staggering". That
makes the statement as a whole incredible and less convincing.
Please help. Thank you.

national identities, then it means that the national identities can not
composed of a lot of different subcultures.
So if the national identity is not composed of single culture would weaken
the argument.
