    C.A hypothesis is presented and arguments against it are cited.
    D.A prognosis is made and evidence supporting it is discussed.

    答案：B
    解析：
    结构题。第四段第一句话意为For complicated reasons，American Indian poetry has basically been ignored by non-lndian cultures，这是一种现象。故本题选B。参考译文：大多数北美人对美国印第安人的文化和历史知之甚少，这是很不幸的事实。学者们研究了这些事实，但是他们还没有成功地让这些结论广为人知。因此，很少有人知道美国印第安人有叙事诗，在欧洲人到来之前的很长一段时间，他们表演戏剧，推行政治，进行交易。想要更全面地欣赏美国印第安人丰富文化的方式之一是去研究其诗歌，因为诗歌在任何文化中都是艺术最中心和最清晰的表达。对我们来说研究美国印第安人的诗歌尤其重要，因为诗歌可以创造一个背景，这个背景可以给予我们有关工艺、史前古器物和一些孤立的事实呈现整体表达，不管你愿意与否.这已经成功地让许多美国人注意到这些事实。一个关于美国印第安人诗歌的调查甚至揭示了一系列公然挑衅简单泛化诗歌的思想和技巧。然而，杰罗尔德·拉姆齐冒险做了概述，这一概述是为了让外行的读者至少能够感受到美国印第安人诗歌的样貌。总之，他写道，诗歌代表了“一种口头的、固化的、传统的和匿名的艺术形式”，它通过强调现实中“神话和神圣”部分的方式来呈现，“通过公共表演而繁荣起来……通过技艺高超演唱者演绎观众已然知道诗歌中所包含的个人故事”。并且，诗歌重视表演者，因为他们“有能力去探索他们的戏剧性的材料，并将他们(的故事)与漫长的岁月相结合”，而不是为了他们的“情节创作”。因为，诗歌属于具有高度种族中心主义的部落人民，对于他们的文化“我们仍然知之甚少”，因此“看起来更简洁、更神秘”。拉姆齐忽略了美国印第安人诗歌的另一个特色：功能性。无论是唱、吟诵或者背诵，无论是出于娱乐或作为任务的一部分(例如治愈病人或磨玉米)而进行的仪式上的表演，或者无论是个人背诵还是组队背诵，诗歌总是完全地融入到普通人的生活中。由于一些复杂的原因，美国印第安人的诗歌基本被非印第安人的文化给忽略了。肯尼斯·林肯写道，听不到美国印第安人的声音是因为“一部分是……部落混乱的悲剧，一部分是错译，一部分是关于文学的误解，还有一部分是对文化的不重视”。布莱恩·斯旺补充了一个解释：部落诗歌是口头的，而欧洲人抵达这个新世界的时候是带着“书写是首位”这种根深蒂固的信仰来的。结果，欧洲殖民者发现很难想象如果没有书面文字诗歌还能够存在。因此在欧洲人抵达这里之前的很长一段时间内，美国印第安人已经取得了一些成就，这些成就与欧洲所说的文学旗鼓相当。结果，欧洲人完全没有表达出美国印第安人诗歌的活力。

    正确答案： A
    解析：
    推理题。注意题干中的关键词NOT。根据题干定位至原文描述作者母亲的部分，即第四段。该段中作者谈到自己的母亲时说到：…she set a selfless and hardy example.由此可知B和D两个选项是上述两个形容母亲性格的词的同义表达，故不能选。根据该段内容还知，母亲为了生活把作者(长子)当作自己的帮手来维持生计说明母亲是个现实的人，也排除C。并且该段的最后提到：I thirsted for my mother’s attention. … I clearly recall, at the ripe old age of 7, coming to the conclusion that I would never get it.说明作者想要得到的是母亲的关注(attention)和爱(love)，而他永远得不到这些，但这并不是说母亲不爱他，只是母亲不善于表达自己的情感，因此A选项的“善于表达的”并不是母亲的性格。本题为反选题，故正确答案为A。
