According to the speaker, what do most people think historians are concerned with?
Speaker: History is usually thought as the story of important people and events, but some historians are also interested in the daily lives of ordinary people. We can get this kind of information from written documents like diaries and town records of course, but strange as this may seem we can also learn a lot from studying old family portraits. Family portraits provide clues about things like the size of the family and the hobbies and tastes of family members. The number of children in a portrait, for example, indicates the size of the family; the types of clothing family members wore for the portrait suggest the popular fashions of the time. The objects that children hold in their hand can give clues about the games they played and their hobbies. The background of a family portrait gives historians an idea of room size and furnishings and even the wealth and social position of the family. All of these details help historians understand more about the everyday lives of some of the ordinary people from the past.
选项
A、The location of the house.
B、The social and economic status of the family.
C、The types of games children played.
D、The profession of the owner of the house.
答案
B
解析
根据文中信息,“历史学家能够从肖像的背景中发现家庭的诸如房间大小、装修状况甚至财产和社会地位的信息”,也就是这个家庭的社会和经济状况,所以B项是正确的。A项的“房子的位置”、C项的“孩子们玩的游戏”和D项中的“房东的职业”则无从得知。
