问题     In recent decades, scholars of American literature have skillfully revealed authors’ simultaneous accommodation and resistance to an increasingly commercialized, capitalized environment during the early nineteenth century. Historians of the period have not, however, fully exploited literary criticism, due to the disciplinary boundaries that mark contemporary academic research. Few historians have extensive training in critical theory and its specialized languages, and the sheer volume of work in early American history and literature challenges anyone who would master either field, much less both. Moreover, historians study people across the nation, but much literary scholarship called “American” actually examines works produced in northeastern states. And historians usually study the operations of capitalism in its details, while literary critics produce a generalized picture of literary commodification.
As discussed in the passage, the literary scholars and the historians differ in which of the following ways?

选项 A、the amount of scholarship that they produce
B、the nature of their geographic focus
C、the extent to which they are critical of early capitalism
D、the extent to which they are interested in interdisciplinary study
E、The extent to which they restrict their focus to a particular time period

答案B

解析 对应第四句。A项干扰选项,根据第三句,我们能得到的结论是文学和历史研究的作品数量都很大。C项critical of sth.表示“批判”,根据最后一句,我们只能说文学和历史对资本主义社会的研究范围不同,没提批判。D项文中未提及。E项文中未提及。
