A Dream offers a rich read, varied in both the lives and texts of the women portrayed, and the perspectives and styles of the sixteen Yet, as an adult, I have come to demand of any really “great” book a self-consciousness about the tenuous nature of representations of reality, a critical contextualization of florid detail, and a self-awareness of the role of ideology in our In these critical senses, A Dream is

It would be expected that a novel by a figure as prominent as DuBois would attract the attention of literary Additionally, when the novel subtly engages the issue of race, as DuBois’ The Quest of the Silver Fleece (1911) does, it would be a surprise not to encounter an abundance of scholarly work about that But though valuable scholarship has examined DuBois’ political and historical thought, his novels have received scant Perhaps DuBois the novelist must wait his turn behind DuBois the philosopher, historian, and But what if the truth lies elsewhere: what if his novels do not speak to current concerns?

Which of the following can be inferred from the passage regarding DuBois’ The Quest of the Silver Fleece?

The lack of attention devoted to The Quest of the Silver Fleece can be attributed to the fact that it was DuBois’ first

Among DuBois’ novels, The Quest of the Silver Fleece is unusual in that it has received scant attention from

In the fourth sentence (“Perhaps DuBois . . . ”), the author of the passage is most likely suggesting that

scholars will find that DuBois’ novels are more relevant to current concerns than is his work as philosopher, historian, and editor

more scholarly attention will be paid to The Quest of the Silver Fleece than to DuBois’ other novels

DuBois’ novels will come to overshadow his work as philosopher, historian, and editor

DuBois’ novels may eventually attract greater scholarly interest than they have to date

Passage 5

Since the Hawaiian Islands have never been connected to other land masses, the great variety of plants in Hawaii must be a result of the long-distance dispersal of seeds, a process that requires both a method of transport and an equivalence between the ecology of the source area and that of the recipient

There is some dispute about the method of transport Some biologists argue that ocean and air currents are responsible for the transport of plant seeds to Yet the results of flotation experiments and the low temperatures of air currents cast doubt on these More probable is bird transport, either externally, by accidental attachment of the seeds to feathers, or internally, by the swallowing of fruit and subsequent excretion of the While it is likely that fewer varieties of plant seeds have reached Hawaii externally than internally, more varieties are known to be adapted to external than to internal

The author of the passage is primarily concerned with

discussing different approaches biologists have taken to testing theories about the distribution of plants in Hawaii

discussing different theories about the transport of plant seeds to Hawaii

discussing the extent to which air currents are responsible for the dispersal of plant seeds to Hawaii

resolving a dispute about the adaptability of plant seeds to bird transport

resolving a dispute about the ability of birds to carry plant seeds long distances

The author mentions the results of flotation experiments on plant seeds (lines 7–8) most probably in order to

support the claim that the distribution of plants in Hawaii is the result of the long-distance dispersal of seeds

lend credibility to the thesis that air currents provide a method of transport for plant seeds to Hawaii

suggest that the long-distance dispersal of seeds is a process that requires long periods of time

challenge the claim that ocean currents are responsible for the transport of plant seeds to Hawaii

refute the claim that Hawaiian flora evolved independently from flora in other parts of the world

Granted that the presence of these elements need not argue for an authorial awareness of novelistic construction comparable to that of Henry James, their presence does encourage attempts to unify the novel’s heterogeneous However, any interpretation that seeks to unify all of the novel’s diverse elements is bound to be somewhat This is not because such an interpretation necessarily stiffens into a thesis (although rigidity in any interpretation of this or of any novel is always a danger), but because Wuthering Heights has recalcitrant elements of undeniable power that, ultimately, resist inclusion in an all-encompassing In this respect, Wuthering Heights shares a feature of

James’s awareness of novelistic construction has led most commentators to see unity in his individual

James’s awareness of novelistic construction precluded him from violating the unity of his

The author of the passage would be most likely to agree that an interpretation of a novel should

not try to unite heterogeneous elements in the novel

not be inflexible in its treatment of the elements in the novel

not argue that the complex use of narrators or of time shifts indicates a sophisticated structure

concentrate on those recalcitrant elements of the novel that are outside the novel’s main structure
