Passage 18

When A. Philip Randolph assumed the leadership of the

Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, he began a ten-year

battle to win recognition from the Pullman Company, the

largest private employer of Black people in the United

(5) States and the company that controlled the railroad

industry’s sleeping car and parlor service. In 1935 the

Brotherhood became the first Black union recognized by a

major corporation. Randolph’s efforts in the battle helped

transform the attitude of Black workers toward unions and

(10) toward themselves as an identifiable group; eventually,

Randolph helped to weaken organized labor’s antagonism

toward Black workers.

In the Pullman contest Randolph faced formidable

obstacles. The first was Black workers’ understandable

( 15) skepticism toward unions, which had historically barred

Black workers from membership. An additional obstacle

was the union that Pullman itself had formed, which

weakened support among Black workers for an

independent entity.

(20) The Brotherhood possessed a number of advantages,

however, including Randolph’s own tactical abilities. In

1928 he took the bold step of threatening a strike against

Pullman. Such a threat, on a national scale, under Black

leadership, helped replace the stereotype of the Black

(25)worker as servant with the image of the Black worker as

wage earner. In addition, the porters’ very isolation aided

the Brotherhood. Porters were scattered throughout the

country, sleeping in dormitories in Black communities;

their segregated life protected the union’s internal

(30) communications from interception. That the porters were a

homogeneous group working for a single employer with

single labor policy, thus sharing the same grievances from

city to city, also strengthened the Brotherhood and encour-

aged racial identity and solidarity as well. But it was only

(35) in the early 1930’s that federal legislation prohibiting a

company from maintaining its own unions with company

money eventually allowed the Brotherhood to become

recognized as the porters’ representative.

Not content with this triumph, Randolph brought the

(40)Brotherhood into the American Federation of Labor, where

it became the equal of the Federation’s 105 other unions.

He reasoned that as a member union, the Brotherhood

would be in a better position to exert pressure on member

unions that practiced race restrictions. Such restrictions

were eventually found unconstitutional in 1944.

108. In using the word “understandable” (line 14), the

author most clearly conveys

(A) sympathy with attempts by the Brotherhood

between 1925 and 1935 to establish an independent

union.

(B) concern that the obstacles faced by Randolph

between 1925 and 1935 were indeed formidable

most Black workers in the 1920’s.

(D) appreciation of the attitude of many Black workers

in the 1920’s toward unions.

(E) regret at the historical attitude of unions toward

Black workers.

112. The passage supplies information concerning which of

the following matters related to Randolph?

(A) The steps he took to initiate the founding of the

Brotherhood

(B) His motivation for bringing the Brotherhood into the

American Federation of Labor

overturning race restrictions in 1944

(D) The influence he had on the passage of legislation to

bar companies from financing their own unions

(E) The success he and the Brotherhood had in

influencing the policies of the other unions in the

American Federation of Labor

想问什么

作者: snowflower 时间: 2004-7-23 03:52

108从哪儿看出来是D啊？112怎么回原文定位呢？

多谢！

Q108: L8-9: helped transform the attitude of Black workers toward unions

Q112: L39-40: Not content with this triumph, Randolph brought the Brotherhood into the American Federation of Labor (B的改写)

Q112: 应该是L42-44

vincent0330GG：这两道题是知道了，但是我想问一下，怎么能一看到题目就知道去原文哪里找答案呢？因为我现在通过这几天的快速强化复习，发现虽然可以很快掌握原文的大意。但是一看题目就不知道去哪儿找了！：(

按小安阅读法把文章仔细分析, 题目选项也要分析, 对各选项错误的部份做整理, 看是啥样的错误, 这样你做题有时就不一定要回原文找, 前提是要对OG所有文章题目选项分析过一两遍

Good Luck!!

vincent0330GG：

108题，选E为什么不对呢？我的理解是，文中并没有提到这个信息。

不过，我总是看D中的appreciation不顺眼：作者为什么会“appreciation”当时黑人们对工会的态度呢？这里因该用“欣赏、正确评价还是感谢”哪一个意思呢？

112题，我主要看到He reasoned that as a member union, the Brotherhood would be in a better position to exert pressure on member unions that practiced race restrictions.才选的motivation这个选项。你指的是不是这个啊？

关于 108，楼上有位 NN说从这里看出答案 “Q108: L8-9: helped transform the attitude of Black workers toward unions ”我怎么不明白，希望大侠们指点。多谢

不做这题还真不知道appreciation有这种意思。。。

作者: 晴天小狗 时间: 2006-9-11 21:43

108从L8-9看不出来，那是另外一道题的答案所在...

The best answer is D. In lines 14-16, the author of the passage describes the skepticism of Black workers toward unions, “which had historically barred Black workers from membership,” as “understandable,” thus conveying an appreciation that the attitude of Black workers had a legitimate basis.

但是我还是不知道为什么会appreciate，请教！

同感，主旨题/段落作用题可以很快选出。但是细节定位题和推论题真是蒙啊。如果不去定位或定位不准确，基本就是错....
