In colonial
1670 and 1719, women participated
in one of every six civil cases, the
Line vast majority of which were debt-
(5) related. Women’s participation
dropped to one in ten cases after
1719, and to one in twenty by the
Hughes Dayton notes in Women
(10) Before the Bar: Gender, Law,
and Society in
1639-1789, these statistics are
somewhat deceptive: in fact,
both the absolute numbers and
(15) the percentage of adult women
participating in civil cases grew
steadily throughout the eighteenth
century, but the legal activity of
men also increased dramatically,
(20) and at a much faster rate. Single,
married, and widowed women
continued to pursue their own and
their husbands’ debtors through
legal action much as they had
(25) done in the previous century, but
despite this continuity, their place
in the legal system shifted
dramatically. Men’s commercial
interests and credit networks
(30) became increasingly far-flung,
owing in part to the ability of
creditors to buy and sell prom-
issory notes (legal promises to
pay debts). At the same time,
(35) women’s networks of credit and
debt remained primarily local and
personal.
although still performing crucial
economic services in their
(40) communities—services that
contributed to the commercialization
of the colonial economy—women
remained for the most part outside
the new economic and legal culture
of the eighteenth century.

晕啊...这篇~阅读~怎么全错啊~~恐怖!
请教26题, 怎么选C呢? 我觉得A,C,D, 都很有道理,
(A)对是因为段首说in fact,
both the absolute numbers and
(15) the percentage of adult women
participating in civil cases grew
steadily throughout the eighteenth
century, but the legal activity of
men also increased dramatically,
(20) and at a much faster rate.
(C) 对,理由跟大家一样
(D) 对, 是对 although still performing crucial economic services in their (40) communities—services that contributed to the commercialization of the colonial economy—women remained for the most part outside the new economic and legal culture of the eighteenth century.红色部分的取非, 像这样的排除题目我总是错, 请大家指点~!!

像这样的排除题目我总是错, 请大家指点~!!
丽香MM，偶认为26题是选C，这题真的粉难~~
首先看A，题目只是说legal activity of men also increased dramatically，没有提到more likely to rely on credit and go into debt 啊，不能这样来对原文进行延伸的。
然后是D，这个偶也看了很久，发现其实原文是说妇女although still performing crucial economic services in their communities，crucial是指最重要的，但并没有排斥说男人就less likely to perform economic services in their own communities.
26 C
Men’s commercial interests and credit networks became increasingly far-flung, owing in part to the ability of creditors to buy and sell prom-issory notes At the same time, women’s networks of credit anddebt remained primarily local and personal. C. more likely to participate in economic trans-actions outside their own communities
At the same time, women’s networks of credit anddebt remained primarily local and personal.
C. more likely to participate in economic trans-actions outside their own communities
我想Q25的B一定是不对的答案
因为整篇文章没有提到unexpected change
只是不知A 和C那一个比较好?
这题有没有结论呀, Q27是不是C? Q25A?
出现在三月JJ里了,求救!

啊。。。三月。。。
我支持25选A. 27题我也选的C，但是后来发现
Men’s commercial
interests and credit networks
(30) became increasingly far-flung,
married, and widowed women
continued to pursue their own and
their husbands’ debtors through
legal action much as they had
27 这么说来是B...
Men’s commercial
interests and credit networks
(30) became increasingly far-flung,

continued to pursue their own and

but
despite this continuity, their place

dramaticallybut despite this continuity, their place in the legal system shifted
less varied？？？？
less varied？？？？
despite this continuity, their place
in the legal system shifted
dramatically但这儿也只是在说她们在legal system中的地位发生了剧烈的变化，而并没有说她们的经济活动。。。事实上，意思仿佛是：虽然经济活动没有什么变化，但地位却发生了巨大的变化。。。
就是说现在 b中的前半句找不到对应，c中的后半句找不到对应，是吧。。。。
大家一起找找吧。。
就是说现在 b中的前半句找不到对应，c中的后半句找不到对应，是吧。。。。
大家一起找找吧。。
but the legal activity of
men also increased dramatically,
(20) and at a much faster rate.
这个是27题C后半句的对应~B根本是说反了~原文都说有增长，只是没有MAN增长快而已，怎么能是少了呢？
求助25题答案~~~
实在看不出来作者在2次引用D的结论的中间是自己的推理还是D的推理？A还是C？？
此题再次出现在8月换题库后的JJ中~~~~~
顶一下。
25题支持A, 作者并没有评价an author的结论，而是对一个现象的成因进行了分析。
27题不知道究竟选什么好。感觉还是C好一点。vary如果翻译成“多样化”， “women’s economic activities had become less varied by the end of the century ” 就不符合原文。妇女的经济行为的多样化只是没有增加，并没有减少。
大家再讨论啊，八月换题库后JJ里有这一篇。下周就考了，大家帮忙看下吧！谢谢谢：）
Q25
The passage is primarily concerned with
A. reporting an author’s view of a phenomenon
C. evaluating the conclusions reached by an author
此题我举棋不定, 最大的问题是A中的author是指文章作者还是Dayton? 如果是指Dayton, 那我就选A
但an author’s view 可以理解成"一个 文章作者 的观点", 也可以理解成"一个作者(指D)的观点".
能否请英文水平高的NN解释一下?
Q27
C - 文章中心. B错 - 没提过vary的问题.
27 B说less varied是不对的 最多只是没有变化
27题为什么没人选A呢？男女都有变化啊，只是男的比女的变化得要快而以啊！原文定位 both the absolute numbers and the percentage of adult women participating in civil cases grew steadily throughout the eighteenth century, but the legal activity of men also increased dramatically, and at a much faster rate.
不过后面的两句里的remained感觉女的又好像没有变：women’s networks of credit and debt remained primarily 和women remained for the most part outside the new economic。
