Explanation:

The penultimate paragraph in the passage highlights that during the 17th century in the West, excavated artworks from antiquity underwent significant changes and interventions, altering their appearance. Option (c) aligns with the concept of intervention in artwork, making it a plausible continuation of the argument.

Option (d) is unlikely to follow the argument presented in the passage. It is uncertain whether someone during the 17th century, amidst massive interventions in art, would have remained "completely true to the original intent." Additionally, the role and influence of religious beliefs during that period cannot be definitively determined.

Option (b) can be inferred from the passage's last paragraph, where it mentions that modern-day Christians called for a ban on human cloning.

Option (a) follows the argument of the passage, suggesting that a Japanese Buddhist monk would not have any objections to restoration or cloning.

Hence, option (d).
