It is not tough, but RC are rare here, that's why I decided to post it:
{some text before}
In the 1930s, however, Evgeny Kosminsky and other Marxist historians claimed the epidemic was merely an ancillary factor contributing to a general agrarian crisis stemming primarily from the inevitable decay of European feudalism. In arguing that this decline of feudalism was economically determined, the Marxist asserted that the Black Death was a relatively insignificant factor. This became the prevailing view until after the Second World War, when studies of specific regions and towns revealed astonishing mortality rates ascribed to the epidemic, thus restoring the central role of the Black Death in history.
{some text after}
Which of the following statements is most compatible with Kosminsky's approach to history, as it is presented in the passage?
A The Middle Ages were ended primarily by the religious and political upheaval in fourteenth-century Europe.
B The economic consequences of the Black Death included increased competition for food, shelter, and work.
C European history cannot be studied in isolation from that of the rest of the world.
D The number of deaths in fourteenth-century Europe has been greatly exaggerated by other historians.
E The significance of the Black Death is best explained within the context of evolving economic systems.
