Verbal

The nature of English literature reflects the rich and diverse vocabulary of the English language, which resulted from the dual influence of the Anglo-Saxon and, later, French languages. The French language, though, is a direct descendant of Latin, with few traces of the Celtic language spoken by the pre-Roman inhabitants of the area: the hallmark of French literature is its simplicity and clarity.

Which one of the following can be most reasonably inferred from the information above?

A. The origin of English played a role in shaping English literature.
B. The vocabulary of the Anglo-Saxon language was richer than that of the French language.
C. The vocabulary of English is larger than the vocabulary of French.
D. Simple and clear literature cannot be written in a language with a rich and diverse vocabulary.
E. English literature and French literature have had little influence on one another.
