题目材料：

The importance of the relatively docile eland (antelope) in the diet of Middle Stone Age (MSA) people contrasted with the increased importance of aggressive wild pigs to Late Stone Age (LSA) people has been interpreted as an indication that MSA hunters were less proficient than LSA hunters. This has been used to support the view that neurological changes dramatically increased the behavioral sophistication of anatomically modern humans. However, alternative hypotheses have not been sufficiently examined to warrant this interpretation. The possibility that economic motives drove prey selection must first be excluded. Since eland are very large but less dangerous to hunt than wild pigs, it is likely that they would be a favored prey animal whether or not hunting strategies were sophisticated enough to tackle more aggressive prey.

The primary purpose of the passage is to

A.resolve a debate about the advantages and disadvantages of certain Stone Age prey
B.question a position on apparent changes in Stone Age hunting patterns
C.critique the work of various researchers of Stone Age hunters
D.suggest a reason that Late Stone Age hunters were more proficient than their predecessors
E.provide evidence of increased behavioral complexity in Stone Age hunters over time
