The first printers in Europe modeled their books very closely on handwritten manuscripts, leading to an easy acceptance of print among readers but to significant missteps in trying to apply technology.
The attempt to replicate manuscripts’ appearance encouraged experiments in two- or three-color printing.
This was intricate and expensive work, and many printers found it preferable to pay expert calligraphers to manually adorn unbound sheets with additional colors. Illuminated headings and decoration familiar from the manuscript age had helped lead readers through the text. To achieve similar effects, printers began to experiment with new arrangements of type, using large fonts for headings and substituting decorative woodcuts for hand-executed initial letters. Ultimately, readers came to accept books printed in just one color. [br] Which of the following statements best describes the function of the highlighted portion of the passage?
选项
A、It provides some historical context for an earlier assertion.
B、It provides a specific example of an approach mentioned earlier in the passage.
C、It qualifies a claim made earlier in the passage.
D、It corrects a misconception regarding early printed books.
E、It anticipates an argument that is discounted by later evidence.
答案
B
解析
根据定位句内容可知,这是对前一句所描述的如何模仿手写稿的具体展开,所以选项B正确。A项“历史背景”指的是和这个事件同时发生,但是不同于这个事件的东西。但是定位句就是把前一句的模仿行为具体化,因此不是背景。C、D项定位句与前一句之间取同,因此根据句间关系排除选项C、D。E项文中未提及。
