A. The museum is closed every Tuesday of the year, with no exception.
B. The museum is closed for the whole of July.
C. The museum may be open because the Tuesday closure has a July exception.✓ 答案
D. The passage is only about ticket prices.
解說
except 係例外。平常星期二關閉，但七月展覽期間唔適用。唔可以無視 except，亦唔可以把七月讀成整月關閉。這句講開放日，唔係票價。
