　　University of Oxford lecturer in modern Chinese literature Margaret Hillenbrand says, “The obvious reason for the growing global presence of Chinese literature is the growing global presence of China itself. People have come to realize that there is a serious knowledge deficit （缺少）between China and its international counterparts — in particular, China knows incomparably（无比地）more about Europe and America than the other way round — and reading Chinese literature is an effective, simple means of solving that gap.”

　　【解析】从第四段Hockx explains, “It’s mainly because there are many more opportunities for Chinese writers to visit other countries, to publish their works outside China and to interact with readers abroad. At the same time, more and more people globally are learning Chinese and taking an interest in the Chinese language and culture.” Hockx所解释的中国的文学作品越来越受关注的主要原因是中国的作家有越来越多的机会去国外推广的作品并吸引了外国的读者。与此同时，越来越多的外国人学习汉语并对中国的语言和文化表现出很厚的兴趣，由此可以推断出中国和西方国家的关系加强了才导致的这种结果。
