All of the following are Thomas Hardy’ s local-colored works, also known as “novels of character and environment”, EXCEPT （）.
A、The Trumpet Major
B、The Return of the Native
C、Far from the Madding Crowd
D、The Woodlanders
【正确答案】：C
【题目解析】：托马斯·哈代晚年的作品最富地方色彩，如The Return of the Native《还乡》(1878)，The Trumpet Major《号兵长》(1880)，The Mayor of Casterbridge《卡斯特桥市长》(1886)，The Woodlanders《林地居民》(1887)，Tess of the D'Urbervilles《德伯家的苔丝》(1891)与Jude the Obscure《无名的裘德》(1896)这些作品便是著名的Novels of Character and Environment“角色与环境为纲的小说”， 而Far from the Madding Crowd《远离尘嚣》(1874)不属于这种风格，小说中的世界相对比较平衡，介于欢快与悲伤之间。
