In recent years, teachers of introductory courses in Asian American studies

问题     In recent years, teachers of introductory courses in Asian American studies have been facing a dilemma nonexistent a few decades ago, when hardly any texts in that field were available. Today, excellent anthologies(文选)and other introductory texts exist, and books on individual Asian Americans are published almost weekly. Even professors who are expels in the field find it difficult to decide which of these to assign to students; non-expels who teach in related areas and are looking for writings for and by Asian American to include in survey courses are in an even worse position.
    A complicating factor has been the continuing lack of specialized one-volume reference works on Asian Americans, such as biographical dictionaries or desktop encyclopedias. Such works would enable students taking Asian American studies courses(and professors in related fields)to look up basic information on Asian American individuals, institutions, history, and culture without having to wade through(费力地阅读冗长而艰深的材料)mountains of primary source material. In addition, given such works, Asian American studies professors might feel more free to include more challenging Asian American material in their introductory reading lists, since good reference works allow students to acquire on their own the background information necessary to interpret difficult or unfamiliar material. [br] The author is primarily concerned with______.
选项 A、responding to a criticism
B、describing a course of study
C、discussing a problem
D、evaluating a past course of action
答案 C
解析 本题为主题分析题。A和B选项为无中生有。首先，如果作者是要回应一个批评，文章应该要引用批评的来源，并且讨论这些来源的基础。但是文章并没有引用这样的来源，故排除。其次，作者并未描述亚裔美国人研究中的一门专门的课程，而是指出了在这个领域中所有课程都有的问题，排除B选项。最后，D选项与原文相反：作者讨论的是现状，故排除。因此，C选项正确。
