题目:

Which one of the following most accurately describes a questionable technique used in the argument?
选项:
A、A. It cites two pieces of evidence, each of which is both questionable and unverifiable, and uses this evidence to support its conclusions.
B、B. It uses the descriptions from a famous artist to support its conclusions.
C、C. It attempts to establish the validity of a claim, which is otherwise unsupported, by denying the truth of the opposite of that claim.
D、D. It bases a conclusion on two premises that contradict each other and minimize this contradiction by the vagueness of the terms employed.
E、E. It draws conclusions about the merit of a position from evidence about the position's source.
