胖胖, 这是一道正反观点的题。有的史学家认为雇主是由于劳动力市场的变化而不是政府法规的引导从而给女性产假的。 你再看看仔细。

Many politicians, business leaders, and scholars discount the role of public policy and emphasize the role of the labor market when explaining employers' maternity-leave policies, arguing that prior to the passage of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) of 1993, employers were already providing maternity leave in response to the increase in the number of women workers. Employers did create maternity-leave programs in the 1970's and 1980's, but not as a purely voluntary response in the absence of any government

mandate. In 1972, the Equal Employment Opportunity
        
Commission (EEOC) ruled that employers who allowed leaves for disabling medical conditions must also allow them for maternity and that failure to do so would constitute sex

discrimination under the Civil Rights Act of 1964. As early as 1973, a survey found that 58 percent of large employers had responded with new maternity-leave policies. Because the 1972 EEOC ruling was contested in court, the ruling won press attention that popularized maternity-leave policies. Yet perhaps because the Supreme Court later struck down the ruling, politicians and scholars have failed to recognize its effects, assuming that employers adopted maternity-leave policies in response to the growing feminization of the workforce.

这题我选D,看红色和蓝色的字体部分,作者和那些scholars关于employers实施maternity leave policy的动机的理解是不同的。

好象voluntary response不能算动机.动机应该是做某事的原因吧.

28-27: The passage suggests that the relationship between the view of the author with respect to maternity leave policy prior to passage of the FMLA and the view of the politicians, business leaders, and scholars mentioned in lines 1-2 can best be characterized by which of the following statements?

A: They agree that both the 1972 EEOC ruling on maternity-leave policy and the increasing feminization of the workplace had an impact on employers’ creation of maternity-leave programs but disagree about the relative importance of each factor.

B: They agree that the EEOC ruling on maternity-leave policy had an initial impact on employers’ creation of maternity-leave programs but disagree over whether the Supreme Court’s striking down of the EEOC ruling weakened that impact.

C: They agree that creating maternity-leave programs was a necessary response to the needs of the increasing number of women workers but disagree about whether maternity should be classified as a disabling medical condition.

D: They agree that employers created maternity-leave programs prior to passage of the FMLA but disagree about employers’ motivations for doing so.

E: They agree that employers created maternity-leave programs prior to passage of the FMLA but disagree about how widespread those programs were.

我选D

这道题关键在于读题目,大家可能没有注意红字的地方~~问的是FMLA之前而跟EEOC没有关系,所以应该定位在第一段,直接排除ABC,而第一段中有很明显的D的同意替换存在,所以答案肯定是D

28-27我認為D不對 因為文章的重點在 政策後續的執行 是因為政策本身的影響 還是雇主對於勞動市場的回應 並非create此program的動機

B比較好,因為最高法院將政策駁回後 其執行仍不受影響 讓那些人覺得政策本身的影響力不大是雇主對市場的回應 但作者不這麼認為
所以作者認為最高法院駁回後 政策的影響力還是有的 而那些人認為最高法院的駁回使政策本身的影響力下降

25-C.主要定位在下面两句。Because the 1972 EEOC ruling was contested in court, the ruling won press attention that popularized maternity-leave policies. Yet perhaps because the Supreme Court later struck down the ruling,
            politicians and scholars have failed to recognize its effects, assuming that employers adopted maternity-leave policies in response to the growing feminization of the workforce.首先是由于EEOC ruling 的存在,使得产假变得非常普及。但是,该法律并没有得到最高法院的通过。尽管如此,一些政治家和学者并没有看到因此对产假的普及造成的影响(politicians and scholars have failed to recognize its effects)。与c选项相符。

27-C

还是请LZ吧标准答案公布出来吧1!!

呵呵,我test的时候选B,但现在更偏向D一点。再看原文,发现所谓的EEOC都是author的论据,跟politicians, business leaders, and scholars根本无关,他们根本不care这个东西,也就否定了B的上半句。原文中Yet
                    perhaps because the Supreme Court later struck down the ruling, politicians and scholars have failed to recognize its effects,也说明了这些人压根就没注意到EEOC,他们认为employers的动机很纯,就是the growing feminization of the workforce.

Many politicians, business leaders,

       and scholars discount the role of

       public policy and emphasize the role

Line       of the labor market when explaining

  (5)      employers’ maternity-leave policies,

arguing that prior to the passage of

the Family and Medical Leave Act

(FMLA) of 1993, employers were

already providing maternity leave in

 (10)      response to the increase in the number

of women workers. 

***politician/scholar/business leader的观点:产假是资方注意到女工增加,对此作出的一个公司福利。

 Employers did

create maternity-leave programs

in the 1970’s and 1980’s, but not as

a purely voluntary response in the

 (15)      absence of any government mandate.

In 1972, the Equal Employment

Opportunity Commission (EEOC) ruled

that employers who allowed leaves

for disabling medical conditions must

 (20)      also allow them for maternity and that

       failure to do so would constitute sex

       discrimination under the Civil Rights

Act of 1964.  As early as 1973, a

survey found that 58 percent of large

 (25)      employers had responded with new

maternity-leave policies.

***作者认为产假不是资方自愿出台的,而是EEOC的规定迫使资方作出相应的产假规定。

Because the

1972 EEOC ruling was contested in

court, the ruling won press attention

that popularized maternity-leave

 (30)      policies.  Yet perhaps because the

Supreme Court later struck down

the ruling, politicians and scholars

       have failed to recognize its effects,

assuming that employers adopted

 (35)
       maternity-leave policies in response

to the growing feminization of the

workforce.

***对最高法院否定EEOC规定,politician/sholar忽略EEOC ruling的作用,反而认为这是资方看到女工增加而作出产假规定。

作者和politician/sholar/buniness leader 都agree with的这一点我觉得应该没有争议,如同D所述;文章的结构显示了产假的出台的成因:一方认为是资方自愿的,我的动机(我为什么这么做?)是我看到女工多了,另一方否认这一点,认为是EEOC红头文件规定造成的。

===支持选D

P.S.我做这篇文章时,头糊成一片,仔细读下来划了这个结构,老天,我的阅读速度再快点...NN给点提高速度的意见...
