问题     The condition of scholarship devoted to the history of women in photography is confounding. Recent years have witnessed the posthumous inflation of the role of the hobbyist Alice Austen into that of a pioneering documentarian while dozens of notable senior figures — Marion Palfi, whose photographs of civil-rights activities in the South served as early evidence of the need for protective legislation, to name one — received scant attention from scholars. And, while Naomi Rosenblum’s synoptic History of Women Photographers covers the subject through 1920 in a generally useful fashion, once she reaches the 1920s, when the venues, forms, applications, and movements of the medium expanded exponentially, she resorts to an increasingly terse listing of un-familiar names, with approaches and careers summarized in a sentence or two. [br] In the context in which it appears, “inflation” most nearly means
选项 A、exaggeration
B、acquisition
C、evaluation
D、distortion
E、attenuation
答案 A
解析 由第二句可知，inflation和scant的含义取反，因此inflation在文中和“多”有关系，所以选项A正确。
