　　Argue against this statement. You may use some or all of the ideas given below if you wish:
　　1. Many people enjoy listening to music, reading novels or poetry, looking at pictures or sculpture without knowing anything about the technical difficulties involved in creating works of art.
　　2. There is a difference between appreciation and enjoyment: in order to appreciate a work of art, one should have a great deal of knowledge; in order to enjoy a work of art, no such knowledge is necessary.
　　3. Specialized knowledge can increase one’s enjoyment: a trained mind knows what to look for.
　　4. Specialized knowledge can diminish one’s enjoyment: it may make you hypercritical and interfere with your response.
　　5. Artists do not create works of art for those who have specialized knowledge only: often they attempt to communicate to large numbers of people.
　　6. If specialized knowledge were necessary to enjoy the arts, then only those engaged in the arts would be in a position to enjoy them---something which is demonstrably untrue.
