In early-twentieth-century England, it was fashionable to claim that only a completely new style of writing could address a world undergoing unprecedented transformation— just as one literary critic recently claimed that only the new “aesthetic of exploratory excess” can address a world undergoing well, you know. Yet in early-twentieth century England, T. S. Eliot, a man fascinated by the “presence” of the past, wrote the most innovative poetry of his time. The lesson for today’s literary community seems obvious: a reorientation toward tradition would benefit writers no less than readers. But if our writers and critics indeed respect the novel’s rich tradition (as they claim to), then why do they disdain the urge to tell an exciting story? [br] The author of the passage suggests that present-day readers would particularly benefit from which of the following changes on the part of present-day writers and critics?
选项
A、An increased focus on the importance of engaging the audience in a narrative
B、Modernization of the traditional novelistic elements already familiar to readers
C、Embracing aspects of fiction that are generally peripheral to the interest of readers
D、A greater recognition of how the tradition of the novel has changed over time
E、A better understanding of how certain poets such as Eliot have influenced fiction of the present time
答案
A
解析
本题考查的是作者的观点。根据文章,作者认为作家和评论家应该用旧的风格,而根据最后一句可知story等于“旧”,而选项A中的narrative等于“story”,所以选项A正确。B项原文用的是reorientation toward tradition,对传统的重新定位,即“复古”,但是选项B讲的是“现代化”。
