文章:

Line         When Jamaican-born social activist Marcus
  Garvey came to the United States in 1916, he
  arrived at precisely the right historical moment.
  What made the moment right was the return of
(5) African American soldiers from the First World War
  in 1918, which created an ideal constituency for
  someone with Garvey’s message of unity, pride,
  and improved conditions for African American
  communities.
(10)      Hoping to participate in the traditional American
  ethos of individual success, many African American
  people entered the armed forces with enthusiasm,
  only to find themselves segregated from white
  troops and subjected to numerous indignities. They
(15) returned to a United States that was as segregated
  as it had been before the war. Considering similar
  experiences, anthropologist Anthony F. C. Wallace
  has argued that when a perceptible gap arises
  between a culture’s expectations and the reality of
(20) that culture, the resulting tension can inspire a
  revitalization movement: an organized, conscious
  effort to construct a culture that fulfills longstanding
  expectations.
       Some scholars have argued that Garvey created
(25) the consciousness from which he built, in the 1920s,
  the largest revitalization movement in
  African American history. But such an argument only
  tends to obscure the consciousness of
  identity, strength, and sense of history that already
(30) existed in the African American community. Garvey
  did not create this consciousness; rather, he gave
  this consciousness its political expression.

提问:

这道题我选的D,因为文中似乎没有看出参军是他们取得个人成就的途径,而是在说能让他们融入社会主流群体,不再受隔离。还请慧雯老师指教,谢谢!
