Many critics of Emily Bronte's novel Wuthering Heights see its second part as a counterpoint that comments on, if it does not reverse, the first part, where a "romantic" reading receives more confirmation.
1. according to the passage, which of the following is a true statement about the first and second parts of Wuthering Heights?
a. the second part has received more attention from critics
b. the second part has little relation to the first part
c. the second part annuls the force of the first part
d. the second part provides less substantiation for a "romantic" reading
e. the second part is better because it is more realistic
先请问下这句话是啥意思啊？ counterpoint意为钢琴对位法 在这句话里又是什么意思？
题目答案为d，我选的是a 是说第一部分与第二步分有抵触，所以第一部分"romantic"，所以第二部分就 less "romantic"？

Many critics [of Emily Bronte's novel Wuthering Heights] see its second part as a counterpoint that comments on, [if it does not reverse，插入语] the first part, where a "romantic" reading receives more confirmation.
这样应该能看懂了吧。
counterpoint可作为对照物解释，说明第二部分与第一部分由对比关系。插入语是在程度上给与限定，实际上暗示了第二部分与第一部分有类似相反的关系。
