单选题 . ①African American drama has, until recently, been rooted in the mimetic tradition of modern American naturalism. ②The most distinctive attribute of this tradition is the mechanistic, materialistic conception of humanity. ③Naturalism sees each individual as inextricably bound to the environment and depicts each person as someone controlled by, instead of controlling, concrete reality. ④As long as African American drama maintained naturalism as its dominant mode, it could only express the "plight of African American people". ⑤Its heroes might declare the madness of reality, but reality inevitably triumphed over them.
