参考答案【正确答案：D】
根据信号词Stone Circle定位到第四段，根据第一句Long is Britain ‘ s best-known Land Artist and his Stone Circle… represents the elegant, rarefied side of the form, 可知 D 选项为正确答案。the elegance 对应文中的 the elegant side, the British land art 对应文中的 Britain’s Land Artist。E选项中的ordinary“普通的”和文中的elegant“优雅的”意思相反，故可排除。
