Questions 1-7
Directions: Read the following passage and choose the correct answer from A, B, C and D.
At the time Jane Austin’s novels were published — between 1811 and 1818 — English literature was not part of any academic curriculum. In addition, fiction was under strenuous attack.

A. A.demonstrate the nineteenth-century preference for realistic novels rather than romantic ones
B.argue that realistic character portrayals the novelist’s most difficult task as well as the aspect of a novel most likely to elicit critical response
C.urge a reassessment of Jane Austin’s novels by twentieth-century literary critics
D.describe some of the responses of nineteenth-century critics to Jane Austin’s novels as well as to fiction in general
