问题              Before Gibson, popular discourse surrounding the Information Age often
       depicted the current era as one in which advanced technologies liberate the
       worker from the burden of material labor, yet despite their claims for a radical
Line    break with the past, such representations both draw upon, and reinforce,
(5)     traditional Western conceptions of the autonomous laborer as an active, organic
       subject distinct from the passive inorganic machine. In contrast, Gibson’s
       characters struggle to comprehend how bodies themselves are marked by
       historical and material circumstances, and by extending their epistemological
       systems to process their technological markings, such characters are able to
(10)    forge limited alliances with one another and retain their agency without
       disappearing into-or fleeing from-this brave new world. Unfortunately,
       Gibson does not wholeheartedly champion these alternative models of labor and
       agency over their dominant counterparts-they are maintained at only great
       physical and social cost-but the Neuromancer trilogy takes an important step
(15)    toward revealing the limits of our traditional conceptions of the laboring body. [br] The author of the passage believes that the Neuromancer trilogy would have been improved had Gibson

选项 A、chosen to focus less on the limits on the traditional view of the body as a laboring device

C、represented alternative models of labor without qualifying them with costs
D、used characters who succeed in realizing how they are marked by machinery
E、elaborated more fully concerning the models of labor that are dominant over his current models
