The attribution of early-nineteenth-century English fiction is notoriously problematic. Fewer than half of new novels published in Britain between 1800 and 1829 had the author’s true name printed on the title page. Most of these titles have subsequently
line been attributed, either through the authors own acknowledgment of a previously
5 anonymous or pseudonymous work or through bibliographical research. One important tool available to researchers is the list of earlier works "by the author" often found on title pages. But such lists are as likely to create new confusion as they are to solve old problems. Title pages were generally prepared last in the publication process, often without full authorial assent, and in the last-minute rush to press, mistakes were fre-
10 quently made.
Description
The passage discusses the reasons why identifying the authors of early-nineteenth-century British fiction poses significant challenges. The passage explains that lew authors during this period used their real names and goes on to describe how title pages can facilitate—but also hamper—efforts to attribute these works. [br] The passage suggests that which of the following is frequently true of the title pages of early-nineteenth-century English novels?
选项
A、The title page was prepared for printing in a hurried manner.
B、Material on the title page was included without the author’s knowledge or approval.
C、Information on the title page was deliberately falsified to make the novel more marketable.
答案
A,B
解析
Choices A and B are correct.
Choice A is correct: the passage mentions that title pages were prepared last and that mistakes often occurred "in the last-minute rush to press"(line 9). This indicates that title pages were often prepared for printing in a hurried manner; hence, Choice A can be inferred.
Choice B is correct: the passage includes the detail that title pages were often prepared for printing "without full authorial assent"(line 9); hence, Choice B can be inferred.
Choice C is incorrect: nowhere does the passage speculate about commercial motives for falsifying information on title pages. Choice C, therefore, cannot be inferred.
