问题           With Meredith’s The Egoist we enter into a
     critical problem that we have not yet before faced
     in these studies. That is the problem offered by a
Line writer of recognizably impressive stature, whose
(5) work is informed by a muscular intelligence,
     whose language has splendor, whose "view of
     life" wins our respect, and yet for whom we are at
     best able to feel only a passive appreciation which
      amounts, practically, to indifference. We should
(10) be unjust to Meredith and to criticism if we
      should, giving in to the inertia of indifference,
      simply avoid dealing with him and thus avoid the
      problem along with him. He does not "speak to
      us," we might say; his meaning is not a "meaning
(15) for us"; he "leaves us cold." But do not the chal-
      lenge and the excitement of the critical problem
      as such lie in that ambivalence of attitude which
      allows us to recognize the intelligence and even
      the splendor of Meredith’ s work, while, at the
(20) same time, we experience a lack of sympathy, a
      failure of any enthusiasm of response? [br] It can be inferred from the passage that the author finds the prospect of appraising Meredith’s work critically to be
选项 A、counterproductive
B、overly formidable
C、somewhat tolerable
D、markedly unpalatable
E、clearly invigorating
答案 E
解析
