===================================================================
All of Francoise Duparc‘s surviving paintings blend portraiture
and genre. Her subjects appear to be acquaintances whom she has
asked to pose; she has captured both their self-consciousness
and the spontaneity of their everyday activities, the depiction
of which characterizes genre painting. But genre painting,
especially when it portrayed members of the humblest classes, was
never popular in eighteenth-century France. The Le Nain
brothers and Georges de La Tour, who also chose such themes, were
largely ignored. Their present high standing is due to a different,
more democratic political climate and to different aesthetic values:
we no longer require artists to provide ideal images of humanity for
our moral edification but rather regard such idealization as a
falsification of the truth. Duparc gives no improving message and
discreetly refrains from judging her subjects. In brief, her works
neither elevate nor instruct. This restraint largely explains her
lack of popular success during her lifetime, even if her talent did
not go completely unrecognized by her eighteenth-century French
contemporaries.
=====================================================================
8. If the history of Duparc‘s artistic reputation were
to follow that of the Le Nain brothers and Georges
de La Tour, present-day assessments of her work
would be likely to contain which of the following?
(A) An evaluation that accords high status to her
work
(B) Acknowledgement of her technical expertise
but dismissal of her subject matter as trivial
(C) Agreement with assessments made in her own
time but acknowledgements of the exceptional quality
of a few of her paintings
(D) Placement of her among the foremost artists of
her century
(E) A reclassification of her work as portraiture
rather than genre painting
===================================================================
給的解答是（A），不過我想請問一下(B)為何錯？
我對題目的理解是，若現今對Duparc的評價，是要根據過去對
the Le Nain brothers 和 Georges de La Tour這兩部作品的評價的話，
那最可能包含什麼？
我看文章覺得歷史對她這兩作品的評價不高，因此才會選(B) (CDE就完全離題了)
(The Le Nain brothers and Georges de La Tour, ..., were largely ignored.
以及文章最後一句)
不過沒想到答案是非常正面評價的(A)
所以想請各位不吝指點，感覺我應該是有哪裡理解錯了.......
感謝！
