Zora Neale Hurston’s 1942 autobiography, Dust Tracks on a Road, has received some of the most negative criticism of any of Hurston’s books. Among critics’ complaints—some from Hurston’s warmest admirers-is the work’s fragmentary nature, a nature which, while present in other Hurston texts, including the universally acclaimed novel Their Eyes Were Watching God, is particularly conspicuous in Dust Tracks. The complaints about Dust Tracks are valid if one insists on the cardinal conventions of autobiography: traditional autobiographical structure and formal organization, and a focused projection of the autobiographical persona. But Dust Tracks portrays a persona that resists reduction to a coherent unity—a person of many moods who is in tension with the world in which she moves. In order to correspond better to this persona, Dust Tracks focuses on the fragmented life of Hurston’s imagination: the psychological dynamics of her family, community stories, and characters of friends.

选项
A、explain why Dust Tracks has been less well received than other similarly structured works by Hurston.
B、argue that a supposed deficiency in Dust Tracks actually contributes to the work’s presentation of its subject.
C、compare the critical reaction to Dust Tracks with the critical reaction to Their Eyes Were Watching God.
D、point out specific similarities between the structure of Dust Tracks and the structure of Hurston’s other works.
E、suggest that some critics’ evaluations of Dust Tracks is influenced by their rejection of certain conventions of autobiography.
答案
B
解析
本题属于主旨题,本文3s版本是“赫斯顿的自传应该描写她的碎片化的生活”。一开始批评家认为碎片化不好,但实际上只有碎片化才能体现赫斯顿的真正生活,因此选项B正确。a supposed deficiency指的是“碎片化”,contributes指的是可以体现赫斯顿的真实生活。A项文中确实提及有和《道路上的尘迹》结构类似的作品,但是这是细节。C项《他们眼望上苍》在文中也是细节。D项《道路上的尘迹》和赫斯顿其他作品在结构上确实有相似之处,但这也是细节。E项这些批评家就是按照传统标准去评价的《道路上的尘迹》。
