阅读下面短文,回答下列五道题汉字究竟起源于何时呢?我认为,这可以以西安半坡村遗址距今的年代为指标。半坡遗址的年代,距今有6000年左右。我认为,这也就是汉字发展的历史。半坡遗址是新石器时代仰韶文化的典型,以红质黑纹的彩陶为其特征。其后的龙山文化,则以薄质坚硬的黑陶为其特征。值得注意的是:半坡彩陶上每每有一些类似文字的简单刻画,和器物上的花纹判然不同。黑陶上也有这种刻画,但为数不多。刻画的意义至今虽尚未阐明,但无疑是具有文字性质的符号,如花押或者族徽之类。我国后来的器物上,无论是陶器、铜器或者其他成品,有“物勒工名”的传统,特别是殷代的青铜上有一些表示族徽的刻画文字,和这些符号极为相类似。由后以例前,也就如由黄河下游以溯源于星宿海,彩陶上的那些刻画符号,可以肯定地说就是我国文字的起源,或者是我国原始文字的孑遗。同样值得注意的是彩陶上的花纹。结构虽然简单,而笔触颇为精巧,具有引入的魅力。其中有些绘画,如人形、人面形、人着长衫形、鱼形、首形、鸟形、草木形、轮形(或以为太阳)等等,画得颇为得心应手,看来显然在使用柔软形的笔了。有人以为这些绘画是当时的象形文字,其说不可靠。当时是应该有象形文字的,但这些图形,就其部位而言,确是花纹,而不是文字。在陶器上既有类似文字的刻画,又有使用颜料和柔软形的笔所绘画的花纹,不可能否认在别的质地上,如竹木之类,已经在用笔来书写初步的文字:只是这种质地是容易毁灭的,在今天很难有实物保留下来。如果在某种情况之下,幸运的还有万一的保留,那就有待于考古工作的进一步发掘和幸运的发现了。总之,在我看来,彩陶和黑陶上的刻画符号应该是汉字的原始阶段。创造它们的是劳动人民,形式是草率急就的。(节选自郭沫若《古代文字之辩证的发展》) 作者认为半坡彩陶上的刻画具有文字性质,其理由是()。

A. 半坡彩陶上的刻画比较简单,因而意义至今尚未阐明
B. 半坡彩陶上的刻画符号同殷代铜器上的一些刻画文字极相类似
C. 半坡彩陶上的刻画虽没有意义,但和器物上的花纹明显不同
D. 半坡彩陶上的刻画常见,而黑陶上的刻画为数不多
