The attribution of early-nineteenth-century English fiction is notoriously problematic.
Fewer than half of new novels published in Britain between 1800 and 1829 had the
author’s true name printed on the title page. Most of these titles have subsequently
been attributed, either through the author’s own acknowledgment of a previously
anonymous or pseudonymous work or through bibliographical research. One important
tool available to researchers is the list of earlier works “by the author” often found
on title pages. But such lists are as likely to create new confusion as they are to solve
old problems. Title pages were generally prepared last in the publication process, often
without full authorial assent, and in the last-minute rush to press, mistakes were frequently made.

23. The passage suggests that which of the following is frequently true of the title
pages of early-nineteenth-century English novels?
A The title page was prepared for printing in a hurried manner.
B Material on the title page was included without the author’s knowledge or
approval.
C Information on the title page was deliberately falsified to make the novel
more marketable.
Explanation
Choices A and B are correct.
Choice A is correct: the passage mentions that title pages were prepared last and
that mistakes often occurred “in the last-minute rush to press” (line 9). This indicates
that title pages were often prepared for printing in a hurried manner; hence, Choice A
can be inferred.
Choice B is correct: the passage includes the detail that title pages were often prepared
for printing “without full authorial assent” (line 9); hence, Choice B can be
inferred.
Choice C is incorrect: nowhere does the passage speculate about commercial
motives for falsifying information on title pages. Choice C, therefore, cannot be
inferred.

不明白为什么B是对的,原文以及解释中说明小说prepared for printing 的时候是without the author’s knowledge or approval. 但是无法得出小说发行之后也是without the approval 的

谢谢各位大神解释

题目是最后一道工序了,印出来就木已成舟了,作者同不同意也没有用了。
