请教GWD21-18


passage 2 (Q15-Q18)



   In her account account of unmarried


women’s experiences in colonial


Philadelphia, Wulf argues that edu-


Line       cated young women, particularly


(5)   Quakers, engaged in resistance to


patriarchal marriage by exchanging


poetry critical of marriage, copying


verse into their commonplace


books. Wulf suggests that this


(10) critique circulated beyond the


daughters of the Quaker elite


and middle class, whose com-


monplace books she mines,


proposing that Quaker shools


(15) brought it to many poor female


students of diverse backgrounds.


   Here Wulf probably overstates


Quaker schools’ impact. At least


three years’ study would be


(20) necessary to achieve the literacy


competence necessary to grapple


with the material she analyzes.


In 1765, the year Wulf uses to


demonstrate the diversity of


(25) Philadelphia’s Quaker schools,


128 students enrolled in these


schools. Refining Wulf’s numbers


by the information she provides


on religious affiliation, gender, and


(30) length of study, it appears that only


about 17 poor non-quaker girls


were educated in Philadelphia’s


Quaker schools for three years or


longer. While Wulf is correct that


(35) a critique of patriarchal marriage


circulated broadly, Quaker schools


probably cannot be credited with


instilling these ideas in the lower


classes. Popular literary satires


(40) on marriage had already landed


on fertile ground in a multiethnic


population that embodied a wide


range of marital beliefs and


practices. These ethnic- and


(45) class-based traditions them-


selves challenged the legitimacy


of patriarchal marriage.




GWD 21-18


Which of the following, if true, would most seriously undermine the author’s basis for saying that Wulf overstates Quaker schools’ impact (line 17-18) ?


A.     The information that Wulf herself provided on religious affiliation and gender of students is in fact accurate.


B.     Most poor, non-Quaker students enrolled in Quaker schools had completed one or two years’ formal or informal schooling before enrolling.


C.     Not all of the young women whose commonplace books contained copies of poetry critical of marriage were Quakers.


D.     The poetry featured in young women’s commonplace books frequently included allusions that were unlikely to be accessible to someone with only three years’ study in school. (B)


E.      In 1765 an unusually large proportion of the Quaker schools’ student body consisted of poor girls from non-Quaker backgrounds.
