题目材料:
Images of movement are widely identified as signifiers of the special nature of American texts, differing from the journeys recorded in Classical epic and Medieval romance by being open-ended and reflecting--by their repeated appearance in American writing about the frontier, the sea, the river, and the road--the factual mobility and ideological orientation of American culture. Many critics turning to African American fiction have seen it as an exception, however, noting stasis or at least the absence of similarly liberating movement. In advancing the contrary view that flux and ferment characterize African American literature, Robert Butler sees the motif of the journey--oftentimes a metaphorical, inward journey--as crucial to twentieth-century African American fiction.
It can be inferred that the "critics" described in the passage would probably agree with which of the following about images of movement in American texts?
-
A.In their images of movement, American texts in general and African American texts in particular are more like Classic epic and Medieval romance than is widely believed.
-
B.African American literature is distinctive within American literature in that it tends not to present images of movement that are open-ended and liberating.
-
C.African American literature is distinctive within American literature in that its images of movement often present some kind of inward journey.
-
D.Images of movement in American texts tend not to be good indicators of the prevailing ideological orientation of American culture as a whole.
-
E.Increasingly in American texts, images of open-ended movement are giving way to images of stasis and aimless motion.
