单项选择题
Before Gibson, popular discourse surrounding the Information Age often depicted the current era as one in which advanced technologies liberate the worker from the burden of material labor, yet despite their claims for a radical Line break with the past, such representations both draw upon, and reinforce, (5) traditional Western conceptions of the autonomous laborer as an active, organic subject distinct from the passive inorganic machine. In contrast, Gibson's characters struggle to comprehend how bodies themselves are marked by historical and material circumstances, and by extending their epistemological systems to process their technological markings, such characters are able to (10) forge limited alliances with one another and retain their agency without disappearing into-or fleeing from-this brave new world. Unfortunately, Gibson does not wholeheartedly champion these alternative models of labor and agency over their dominant counterparts-they are maintained at only great physical and social cost-but the Neuromancer trilogy takes an important step (15) toward revealing the limits of our traditional conceptions of the laboring body.
It can be inferred from the passage that the author regards traditional Western views of labor as problematic because they（）. A．fail to forecast the extent to which workers may become liberated through the assistance of machines
B．avoid encouraging alliances between workers through technological bonds
C．establish a distinction between autonomous laborer and machine, without recognizing how one affects the another
D．do not succeed in achieving the radical break with the past that Gibson attempts to make
E．provide a notion of a brave new world which exists more in the imagination than in reality
