根据题目中问的时间段，定位在一段。其组织工会的因素大概考虑三方面，标出如下，其中第三方面因素有可变性：
Prior to 1975, union efforts to organize public-sector clerical workers, most of whom are women, were somewhat limited.
The factors favoring unionization drives seem to have been either the presence of large numbers of workers, as in New York City, to make it worth the effort, or the concentration of small numbers in one or two locations, such as a hospital, to make it relatively easy,
Receptivity to unionization on the workers, part was also a consideration, but when there were large numbers involved or the clerical workers were the only unorganized group in a jurisdiction, the multioccupational unions would often try to organize them regardless of the workers’ initial receptivity.
The strategic reasoning was based, first, on the concern that politicians and administrators might play off unionized against nonunionized workers, and, second, on the conviction that a fully unionized public work force meant power, both at the bargaining table and in the legislature.
In localities where clerical workers were few in number, were scattered in several workplaces, and expressed no interest in being organized, unions more often than not ignored them in the pre-1975 period.
根据OG的解释：上述划线部分是解释中否定B选项的根据。确实，在75年前，职员中妇女的人数并不在考虑之列。
46.
B is the best answer.
In the first paragraph, the author describes the considerations relevant to a union’s attempt to organize a certain group of clerical workers prior to 1975.
In lines 2-3, the author notes the fact that most of these clerical workers were women, but does not suggest that this was an important consideration for unionizers.
