NO.2-1 Section A
[原文]
Extended debate concerning the
　　exact point of origin of individual
　　folktales told by Afro-American salves
　　has unfortunately taken precedence
(5) over analysis of the tales meaning
　　and function. Cultural continuities
　　with Africa were not dependent on
　　importation and perpetuation of
　　specific folktales in their pristine
(10) form. It is in the place that tales
　　occupied in the lives of the slaves
　　and in the meaning slaves derived from
　　them that the clearest resemblances
　　to African tradition can be found.
(15) Afro-American slaves did not borrow
　　tales indiscriminately from the
　　Whites among whom they lives. Black
　　people were most influenced by those
　　Euro-American tales whose functional
(20) meaning and aesthetic appeal had the
　　greatest similarity to the tales with
　　deep roots in their ancestral homeland.
　　Regardless of where slave tales came
　　from, the essential point is that,
(25) with respect to language, delivery,
　　details of characterization. and plot,
　　slaves quickly made them their own.

个人认为是一道难题. 请教高手 如何分析出答案E呢?

个人感觉是，文章先说了在对黑人的民间传说的起源一直都有着争论
然后作者说了这个起源并不是代表原有未改的非洲时候的形式

而是沿用了美洲的故事只不过这些故事和他们的homeland的根基更加相似

最后总结说不管这些tale从哪来，都是将美洲的当地文化迅速的改编成来他们自己特有的
应该是赞成后面的那一点吧

这样的话结构应该选e了

(what is not the case)
It is in the place that tales occupied in the lives  of the slaves and in the meaning slaves derived from them that the clearest resemblanceto African tradition can be found(what is the case)

Afro-American slaves did not borrow……（what is not the case）
Black people were most influenced……   (what is  the case)


选E还是很明显的
