问题            The historian Batalla has properly concluded that although the
       Mesoamerican central plateau was militarily conquered in 1521, this conquest
       did not directly translate into a complete physical, cultural, and psychological
Line    surrender, largely because of survival strategies. Batalla’s creative three step
(5)      model of resistance, innovation, and appropriation helps explain the modern
       survival and transformation of the Nahua culture. Resistance, the first,
       includes the native refusing to use fertilizer transported from outside of the
       communities and those Nahua who burned the school that had been built for
       them on the same day it was to be inaugurated. The second mechanism,
(10)     innovation, included their use of metal drills to create hair pipe and snuff lids to
       manufacture jingles. And to appreciate the third survivalist tactic,
       appropriation, we need only consider the way in which native Nahua people
       have superficially appropriated the Catholic religion as a surface cover for their
       indigenous customs.
It may be inferred that the author believes that historians prior to Batalla have committed the error of
选项 A、arguing that survivalist strategies did not exist prior to the conquering of the Mesoamerican plateau
B、assuming that the strategies Batalla suggests would be ineffective in preventing the Nahau’s domination
C、portraying the conquering of the Mesoamerican peoples as a case of total submission
D、overestimating the role of conquest in determining the survivalist strategies Batalla articulates
E、advancing an alternative but erroneous schema of survivalist strategies for Mesoamerican people
答案C
解析
