Among some Native American peoples, the oral tradition of one group has sometimes influenced that of another; indeed, tracing such influence has been one major task of scholars of Native American oral literature. European influences are often regarded, understandably, as another matter. Nellie Barnes, for example, in an early stylistic study of Native American oral literature, considered only forms preceding the influence of Europeans. Yet the example of the Zuni version of the Italian folk tale “The Cock and the Mouse” suggests that, notwithstanding the opinions of scholars of Native American oral literature, European influence is not always synonymous with the waning of Native American traditions. The Zuni narrator utilized the European story as an opportunity to exercise his narrative genius, thus leaving his tradition enhanced rather than diminished by the European influence. Such examples should cause scholars researching influences on Native American oral narratives to reassess their notions of the proper domain of such studies.
The author of the passage refers to Nellie Barnes’ study most probably in order to do which of the following?
选项
A、Point out a weakness common to early stylistic studies of most oral literature
B、Illustrate a research approach commonly taken by scholars of Native American oral literature
C、Provide an example of an anomalous approach to the study of Native American oral traditions
D、Contrast the assumptions guiding early research with those guiding study of Native American oral literature today
E、Draw attention to an area of research that has been increasingly neglected by scholars in recent years
答案
B
解析
本题属于功能题。本题定位到第三句,其3s版本是“不研究欧洲的影响”,因此可知,内莉.巴恩斯在文中是一个例子,用来说明以前大多数学者的研究领域只限于美洲原住民,而不研究欧洲的影响,因此选项B正确。A项该项可以从三方面排除:a.本文只是说要将研究领域扩大到欧洲的影响,但是没说研究美洲原住民之间的影响是错的。内莉.巴恩斯只研究美洲原住民之间的影响,这不见得是缺陷。b.即使我们认为只研究美洲原住民是缺陷,那这也是第四句开始说的事情,内莉.巴恩斯依然只是例子,支持前面的研究。C项most oral literature已经超出了本文讨论的Native American oral literature,范围太大。C项内莉.巴恩斯的研究方法是大多数学者的方法,因此不是anomalous。D项这句话只提及以前的研究,何谈对比。E项看不出increasingly neglected,也看不出时间的变化。
