TillieOlsen’s fiction and essays have been widely and rightly acknowledged as major contributions toAmerican literature. Her work has been particularly valued by contemporary feminists. Yet few of Olsen’s readers realize theextent to which her vision and choice of subject are rooted in an earlierliterary heritage—the tradition of radical politicalthought, mostly socialist and anarchist, of the 1910’s and 1920’s, andthe Old Left tradition of the 1930’s. I do not mean that one can adequatelyexplain the eloquence of her work in terms of its political origins, or thatleft-wing politics were the single most important influence on it. My point isthat its central consciousness—its profoundunderstanding of class and gender as shaping influences on people’s lives—owesmuch to that earlier literary heritage, a heritage that, in general, has notbeen sufficiently valued by most contemporary literary critics.


26.
Inthe sentence “I do not … influence on it” (lines 10-14), the author dos whichof the following?
(A)Broadens an existing classification.
(B) Contradicts the passage’s centralthesis.
(C) Qualifies a commonly accepted point ofview.
(D) Presents conflicting explanations for aphenomenon.（E）
(E) Denies possibleinterpretations of an earlier assertion.（不懂）       楼主大概上网查了一下，说E选项是作者表示不把话说绝对，留有余地的意思，这样的表述是gre喜欢的。可是我反复读，没弄懂是么是留有余地？？deny assertion就是留有余地么？麻烦同学们帮我看看！！O(∩_∩)O谢谢

前面说了her vision and choice of subject are rooted in an earlierliterary heritage—the tradition of radical politicalthought, mostly socialist and anarchist
后面说one can adequatelyexplain the eloquence of her work in terms of its political origins, or thatleft-wing politics were the single most important influence on it
你看后面这句 single   most important  
是不是很绝
do not mean 是不是就是没把话说绝
前面说了A很重要，后面说我不是说A是唯一最重要
