In recent years, teachers of introductory courses in Asian American studies have been facing a dilemma nonexistent a few decades ago, when hardly any texts in that field were available. Today, excellent anthologies(文选)and other introductory texts exist, and books on individual Asian Americans are published almost weekly. Even professors who are expels in the field find it difficult to decide which of these to assign to students; non-expels who teach in related areas and are looking for writings for and by Asian American to include in survey courses are in an even worse position.
A complicating factor has been the continuing lack of specialized one-volume reference works on Asian Americans, such as biographical dictionaries or desktop encyclopedias. Such works would enable students taking Asian American studies courses(and professors in related fields)to look up basic information on Asian American individuals, institutions, history, and culture without having to wade through(费力地阅读冗长而艰深的材料)mountains of primary source material. In addition, given such works, Asian American studies professors might feel more free to include more challenging Asian American material in their introductory reading lists, since good reference works allow students to acquire on their own the background information necessary to interpret difficult or unfamiliar material.
The "dilemma"(Line 2, Para.l)can best be characterized as being caused by the necessity to make a choice when faced with a______.
选项
A、lack of acceptable alternatives
B、lack of strict standards for evaluating alternatives
C、preponderance of bad alternatives as compared to good
D、multitude of different alternatives
答案
D
解析
本题为细节题。文章开头就说“几十年前不存在选择困境,因为当时几乎没有可用的材料。第二句话说现在几乎每周都会出版新的教材,由此可知,现在出现了选择的困境。A和C选项与原文意思正好相反,排除。B选项属无中生有。D选项符合原文意思,因此,D选项正确。
