标题: 跪求nn们指教！！大恩使劲谢！！！
不知道各位大牛觉得这类的文章怎么样，但是我拿到这种文章实在是束手无措，这几天一直在按照小安阅读法练习，找到了一些感觉，但是一旦碰上类似于这样的文章就很迷茫，通篇文章作者的观点，态度不好找，如果先通读原文再做题，根本什么信息都记不住，如果边做题便找，也要浪费很多时间。。而且多数情况下找不到。。。有的时候遇到类似的比较难的文章，或者涉及背景知识比较复杂的文章，通常都放过了，安慰自己在考场上碰不到这样的文章。。可想一想这样也不是办法，总要找一个解决方法，我自己是想破了脑子，实在没有办法了，上来麻烦各位大牛，希望大牛们不吝赐教，指点一下你们在做这类文章是是怎么做的？真的非常感谢！！！谢谢了谢谢了！！！大牛们一定指教啊！！！您哪怕说上一两句也是对我很大的帮助，谢谢！！
Passage 25 (25/63)In 1977 the prestigious Ewha Women’s University in Seoul, Korea
,announced the opening of the first women’s studies program in Asia.Few academic programs have ever received such public attention. In broadcastdebates, critics dismissed the program as a betrayal of national identity, animitation of Western ideas, and a distraction from the real task of nationalunification and economic development. Even supporters underestimated theprogram; they thought it would be merely another of the many Western ideas thathad already proved useful in Asian culture, akin to airlines, electricity, andthe assembly line. The founders of the program, however, realized that neitherview was correct. They had some reservations about the applicability of Westernfeminist theories to the role of women in Asiaand felt that such theories should be closely examined. Their approach has thus far (thus far:迄今) yielded important critiques of Westerntheory, informed by the special experience of Asian women.For instance, like the Western feminist critique of theFreudian model of the human psyche, the Korean critique finds Freudian theoryculture-bound, but in ways different from those cited by Western theorists. TheKorean theorists claim that Freudian theory assumes the universality of theWestern nuclear, male-headed family and focuses on the personality formation ofthe individual, independent of (independent of: 不依赖...,独立于....) society. An analysis based on suchassumptions could be valid for a highly competitive, individualistic society.In the Freudian family drama (a state, situation, or series of events involvinginteresting or intense conflict of forces), family members areassumed to be engaged in a Darwinian struggle against each other—father againstson and sibling against sibling. Such a concept projects the competitive modelof Western society onto human personalities. But in the Asian concept of personalitythere is no ideal attached to individualism or to the independent self. TheWestern model of personality development does not explain major characteristicsof the Korean personality, which is social and group-centered. The “self” is asocial being defined by and acting in a group, and the well-being of both menand women is determined by the equilibrium of the group, not by individual self-assertion (1:the act of asserting oneself or one's own rights, claims, or opinions 2: theact of asserting one's superiority over others). The ideal is oneof interdependency.
In such a context, what is recognized as “dependency”in Western psychiatric terms is not, in Korean terms, an admission of weaknessor failure. All this bears directly on the Asian perception of men’s andwomen’s psychology because men are also “dependent.” In Korean culture, men cryand otherwise easily show their emotions, something that might be considered abetrayal of masculinity in Western culture. In the kinship-based society ofKorea, four generations may live in the same house, which means that people canbe sons and daughters all their lives, whereas in Western culture, the roles ofhusband and son, wife and daughter, are often incompatible.

Passage 25 (25/63)结论解释型：文章开始给出明确结论，后文都是对它所作的解释说明。
主题句：文章开端结论给出之处。
现象解释型：原文先给出一个让人费解或疑惑的现象后面给出解释
主题句：合理解释给出之处。
这是新东方给出的主旨题的做法，但是这篇文章我的疑惑之处在于分不清这到底是结论解释性还是现象解释型。第一题主旨题做错了，后来结合着答案我就勉强把它归类为结论解释型。但是完全没有根据，大牛帮我指点一下这两种文章类型有什么区别。大谢！！
结论，本篇主旨In 1977 the prestigious Ewha Women’s University in Seoul, Korea,announced the opening of the first women’s studies program in Asia. （Few academic programs have ever receivedsuch public attention4*C.下面是讲对这件事情的评价In broadcast debates, critics dismissed theprogram as a betrayal of national identity,3*B an imitation of Western ideas, and a distractionfrom the real task of national unification and economic development. Evensupporters underestimated the program; they thought it would be merely anotherof the many Western ideas that had already proved useful in Asian culture, akinto airlines, electricity, and the assembly line.5*A ）Thefounders of the program, however（强转折，往往是出题点）, realizedthat neither view was correct. They had some reservations保留意见 aboutthe applicability of Western feminist theories to the role of women in Asia andfelt that such theories should be closely examined.Their approach has thus far (thus far: 迄今) yielded important critiques ofWestern theory, informed by the special experience of Asian women.2*E
整段举例。For instance, like（出题点，整句话都要仔细读） the Western feminist critique of the Freudian model of the humanpsyche, the Korean critique finds Freudian theory culture-bound, but （转折！！）in ways different from those cited by Western theorists.讲Korean和western观点有相同点，但也有不同点。重点在不同！对下文预判：不同之处表现在哪里？TheKorean theorists claim that Freudian theory assumes the universalityof the Western nuclear, male-headed familyand focuses on the personality formation of theindividual, independent of (independentof: 不依赖...,独立于....) society.（K认为的F理论） An analysis based on such assumptions could be valid for a highlycompetitive, individualistic society.
nn们我的能力到此为止，后面实在是理不清了，作者的态度什么的，到这里全都混了。求大牛帮我指点一下后面的吧
In the Freudian family drama (a state,situation, or series of events involving interesting or intense conflict offorces), family members are assumed to be engaged in a Darwinianstruggle against each other—father against son and sibling against sibling.Such a concept projects the competitive model of Western society onto humanpersonalities. But in the Asian concept of personality there is no idealattached to individualism or to the independent self. The Western model ofpersonality development does not explain major characteristics of the Koreanpersonality, which is social and group-centered. The “self” is a social beingdefined by and acting in a group, and the well-being of both men and women isdetermined by the equilibrium of the group, not by individual self-assertion (1:the act of asserting oneself or one's own rights, claims, or opinions 2: theact of asserting one's superiority over others). The ideal is oneof interdependency.
In such a context, what is recognized as“dependency” in Western psychiatric terms is not, in Korean terms, an admissionof weakness or failure. All this bears directly on the Asian perception ofmen’s and women’s psychology because men are also “dependent.” In Koreanculture, men cry and otherwise easily show their emotions, something that mightbe considered a betrayal of masculinity in Western culture.

哎我一个人的独角戏啊。。。

如果大家觉得麻烦，那是否可以帮我解答一下关于这篇文章的主旨问题。谢谢了

作者: mofell 时间: 2011-1-29 12:34
我觉得主旨句是Their approach has thus far (thus far: 迄今) yielded important critiques ofWestern theory, informed by the special experience of Asian women.
后文2段都在从the special experience of Asian women的角度解释它的critiques ofWestern theory
这些critiques是这个program工作的得到的结论，所以是a report of work

作者: mofell 时间: 2011-1-29 13:56
个人拙见。
黄色是重要的句子蓝色为略看紫色是考点

For instance（上段末说这个program对W提出了很多反驳，反驳之一是它bound,）, like the Western feminist critique of the Freudian model of the human psyche, the Korean critique finds Freudian theory culture-bound,but in ways different from those cited by Western theorists. The Korean theorists claim that（正式开始说明它的反驳）Freudian theory assumes the universality of the Western nuclear, male-headed family and focuses on the personality formation of the individual, independent of (independent of: 不依赖...,独立于....) society. An analysis based on such assumptions could be valid for a highly competitive, individualistic society. In the Freudian family drama (a state, situation, or series of events involving interesting or intense conflict of forces), family members are assumed to be engaged in a Darwinian struggle against each other—father against son and sibling against sibling. Such(2个such 表明这段话关系层层递进，知道大略讲了Freudian theory分析的前提和适用既可，可以略看) a concept projects the competitive model of Western society onto human personalities. But（开始转折）in the Asian concept of personality there is no ideal attached to individualism or to the independent self.（转折表明ASIAN不存在Freudian theory的前提，因此这个理论在ASIAN站不住脚）The Western model of personality development does not explain（进一步解释）major characteristics of the Korean personality, which is social and group-centered.（还在解释，抓出中心词self，略看）The “self” is a social being defined by and acting in a group, and the well-being of both men and women is determined by the equilibrium of the group, not by individual self-assertion (1: the act of asserting oneself or one's own rights, claims, or opinions 2: the act of asserting one's superiority over others). The ideal is one of interdependency.

In such a context（说明又是一个递进关系，和前面态度一致。）, what is recognized as “dependency” in Western psychiatric terms is not, in Korean terms, an admission of weakness or failure. （说韩国社会中dependency并不视为weakness or failure，原因是men也dependent）All this bears directly on the Asian perception of men’s and women’s psychology because men are also “dependent.” In Korean culture（后面开始详细说明，看到这里为止就可以了，之后略看）, men cry and otherwise easily show their emotions, something that might be considered a betrayal of masculinity in Western culture. In the kinship-based society of Korea, four generations may live in the same house, which means that people can be sons and daughters all their lives, whereas in Western culture, the roles of husband and son, wife and daughter, are often incompatible.

In 1977 the prestigious Ewha Women’s University in Seoul, Korea, announced the opening of the first women’s studies program in Asia. Few academic programs have ever received such public attention. 一个新的关于女性的研究项目在韩国出现In broadcast debates, critics dismissed the program as a betrayal of national identity, an imitation of Western ideas, and a distraction from the real task of national unification and economic development. Even supporters underestimated the program; they thought it would be merely another of the many Western ideas that had already proved useful in Asian culture, akin to airlines, electricity, and the assembly line. 批评者认为该项目很大程度上是对于western ideas的模仿The founders of the program, however, realized that neither view was correct. They 指代the founders had some reservations about the applicability of Western feminist theories to the role of women in Asia and felt that such theories should be closely examined. Their approach has thus far (thus far: 迄今) yielded important critiques of Western theory, informed by the special experience of Asian women.该项目的发起人认为他们的项目对western theories有所保留，甚至是批评western theory的，即实际上不同于western theory

For instance,举例对上面的观点进行说明 like the Western feminist critique of the Freudian model of the human psyche, the Korean critique finds Freudian theory culture-bound, but in ways different from those cited by Western theorists. 对比Western feminist和Korean 对于Freudian的批判方法的不同The Korean theorists claim that Freudian theory assumes the universality of the Western nuclear, male-headed family and focuses on the personality formation of the individual, independent of (independent of: 不依赖...,独立于....) society. An analysis based on such assumptions could be valid for a highly competitive, individualistic society. In the Freudian family drama (a state, situation, or series of events involving interesting or intense conflict of forces), family members are assumed to be engaged in a Darwinian struggle against each other—father against son and sibling against sibling. Such a concept projects the competitive model of Western society onto human personalities.说明western society是认同independent ，并且弗洛伊德也是受到了西方社会的影响But in the Asian concept of personality there is no ideal attached to individualism or to the independent self. 在亚洲人们并不认同个人主义The Western model of personality development does not explain major characteristics of the Korean personality, which is social and group-centered. The “self” is a social being defined by and acting in a group, and the well-being of both men and women is determined by the equilibrium of the group, not by individual self-assertion (1: the act of asserting oneself or one's own rights, claims, or opinions 2: the act of asserting one's superiority over others). The ideal is one of interdependency.通过研究双方对于社会形式的认识，说明西方更加强调个体性，而亚洲更加突出总体

In such a context, what is recognized as “dependency” in Western psychiatric terms is not, in Korean terms, an admission of weakness or failure. All this bears directly on the Asian perception of men’s and women’s psychology because men are also “dependent.” In Korean culture, men cry and otherwise easily show their emotions, something that might be considered a betrayal of masculinity（男子气概） in Western culture. 说明男性在西方和在韩国的不同In the kinship-based society of Korea, four generations may live in the same house, which means that people can be sons and daughters all their lives, whereas in Western culture, the roles of husband and son, wife and daughter, are often incompatible.说明中西方家庭生活的不同

总结：第一段虽然提到了对于该新项目的批评，但是其发起人认为这个项目并不是对于西方理论的模仿，而是与其有区别，甚至是批判的地方。然后举例，西方和韩国对于弗洛伊德的批评观点不同，最后举例中西方家庭生活的区别。主要目的就是为了说明实际上该项目和西方理论是有区别的！

这题为啥选E不选A呀

我选错了因为我理解的as a response to 应该是把韩国学者的这种研究作为对XXX的回应，答案应该选对啥回应。文中不是批评家觉得这个研究和西方没啥不同嘛，然后E选项是学者的研究，认为西方社会和亚洲有区别，理论也没法照搬到亚洲女性上面。
E不是韩国学者的分析吗 as a response to不是用他们的分析来回应外界的批判吗那就是A了。。

这篇题目的问法总是理解的不好比如第一题A选项把critique 当做评论来理解也说得通呀
求解
嘤嘤嘤
