问题     One way to assess This is the American Earth, a collection of photographs selected and arranged by Nancy Newhall, is to apply Newshall’s own criteria for judging photographic art. Does this photographic essay achieve results impossible in other media? By contrasting the small with the vast—for example, placing a photo of a rock pool next to one of a spiral galaxy— Newhall exploits the camera’s ability to manipulate the size of an object, thereby challenging viewers to question their conventional concepts of size. However, a similar result could be achieved in the medium of painting.
    Does the work bear its creator’s imprint, and does it draw viewers’ interest even after repeated viewings, Newhall’s second and third criteria? Indeed, Newhall’s work bears her unmistakable imprint in the juxtaposition of the photos and in the rhythmic prose accompanying them, but the individual viewer must decide whether Newhall’s work evokes, as it did for this reviewer, new experiences upon subsequent viewings.
According to the passage, which of the following is a way in which This is the American Earth satisfies Newhall’s criteria for judging photographic art?
选项 A、It takes advantage of one of the camera’s unique abilities.
B、It leaves viewers with a particularly strong visual impression.
C、It contains elements identifying it as a particular person’s work.
D、It consistently evokes an emotional response from viewers.
E、It successfully destroys an overemphasis on humans’ concept of size.
答案C
解析 本题乍看之下每个选项都对，但是这道题问的是这部作品怎么满足了纽霍尔的标准，因此如果这个选项只是文中提及，但是和纽霍尔的标准无关，照样不选。C项对应的是标准二：这部作品是否有其创作者的印记。根据第二段第二句Newhall’s work bears her unmistakable imprint可知，作品满足了纽霍尔的标准二，所以选项C正确。A、B、D、E均和标准无关。
