It would be expected that a novel by a figure as prominent as W. E. B. DuBois would attract the attention of literary critics. Additionally, when the novel subtly engages the issue of race, as DuBois’ The Quest of the Silver Fleece(1911)does, it would be a surprise not to encounter an abundance of scholarly work about that text. But though valuable scholarship has examined DuBois’ political and historical thought, his novels have received scant attention. Perhaps DuBois the novelist must wait his turn behind DuBois the philosopher, historian, and editor. But what if the truth lies elsewhere: what if his novels do not speak to current concerns? [br] Which of the following best describes the central issue with which the passage is concerned?
选项
A、The perfunctoriness of much of the critical work devoted to DuEois’ novels
B、The nature of DuBois’ engagement with the issue of race in The Quest of the Silver Fleece
C、Whether DuBois’ novels are of high quality and relevant to current concerns
D、The relationship between DuBois the novelist and DuBois the philosopher, historian, and editor
E、The degree of consideration that has been given to DuBois’ novels, including The Quest of the Silver Fleece
答案
E
解析
The passage focuses on the scant attention given to DuBois’ novels. The Quest of the Silver Fleece in particular. The first two sentences give reasons to expect greater attention, while the last two offer speculations about the explanation for the scant attention. Thus, Choice E is correct. The issues described in the other answer choices are all marginal to the passage, if they are mentioned at all.
