问题             In some ways, Ralph Ellison’s protagonist in Invisible Man emblematizes
       what might be called the "presentist simplicity" of the novel’s endorsement of
       industrial, imperialist, xenophobic American myth-making. Layer upon layer of
Line    allusion mark its chapters, which in combination with the novel’s Homeric
(5)     ambitiousness, serve finally to obscure rather than to prophesy the actual,
       engaged, advanced-guard, public sphere effectiveness of American blacks
       already at work modernizing the United States. Simply stated, Ellison believed
       morality, equality, and responsibility were affirmative "notions", but blacks, at
       the very moment of Invisible Man’s glorious reception, were transforming
(10)    "notions" into decisively affirmative actions, by courageously putting body and
       soul on the line and constructing a sphere of American ethical publicity
       undreamed by the novelist. Ellison thus remained silent on the possibilities of an
       altogether "unexceptional" America-a post-industrial, radically black public
       sphere conditioned America. [br] The author is primarily concerned with
选项 A、criticizing Ellison on the basis of reactionary assumptions his work makes about politically-involved blacks
B、exposing the limitations of Ellison’s novel when compared with the actual work performed by black workers and activists
C、chronicling the effects Ellison’s novel had upon the black activist movements of the 1960’s
D、comparing Ellison’s view of post-industrial black America with that of the activists working at the time
E、critically describing Ellison’s approach as novelist to the task of ethical publicity
答案 B
解析
