问题            Women’s roles in literature have not evolved nearly as rapidly as women’s
       changing roles in society, and while these changes are reflected somewhat in
       what is written, female characters in most classic literature written by both
Line    men and women seem to adhere to the classic stereotypes. Though writing
(5)     during an era in which impersonal criticism was virtually the only way for a
       woman to maintain objectivity, Virginia Woolf protested the notion that authors
       ought to separate fiction from reality, and her imaginative use of drama and
       character development to establish her point can be evidenced in her feminist
       non-fiction, most prominently the battle against patriarchal authority. Owing to
(10)    its numerous personal references, most critics have claimed that her oeuvre is
       somehow self-centered or egotistical rather than objective, yet in truth Woolf is
       not using her personal experiences as a means with which to reflect upon her
       own self-image, but rather as a way to more vibrantly illustrate her external
       perceptions.
It can be inferred from the passage that the author views the critical reception that Woolf’s work has received as

选项 A、largely irrelevant, in that it has paid too much attention to writers of female stereotypes instead of those who have challenged them
B、insufficiently praiseful, in that it fails to acknowledge the extent to which Woolf attacked the stereotypes of her time
C、balanced, in that both Woolf’s contribution to the fight against feminist stereotypes and her technical limitations are usually acknowledged
D、often inappropriate, in that critics often mistake the personal references in her work as evidence of self-absorption, instead of a valid technique
E、mostly incisive, in that it points out the unfortunate egotistism of her writing which diminished its overall positive aspects

答案D
