大全２５

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 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. （提出一个现象：梨花大学建立女性研究，受到广泛关注）The founders of the program, however, realized that neither view was correct. They 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.第一段：提出一个现象：梨花大学建立女性研究，受到广泛关注。提出观点：西方女性理论要跟东方的实际相接合。

For instance, 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 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. But in the Asian concept of personality there is no ideal attached to individualism or to the independent self. 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.第二段：论据：F理论与东方不同。对比点必考。F理论：男性化、独立、竞争；东方：互相依赖

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 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.第三段：接着第二段说：不同的社会背景产生不同的理念。东方的男性依赖，西方独立。

这个题目我当时拿着就准备选e，也就是给的正确答案，可是仔细看了看题目，问的是＂as a response to which of the following? ＂，也就是说是对下面哪个作出的回应，前面的批评就是说他们的研究是照搬西方的东东，所以他们才以这个例子来证明自己不是照搬．这题目的问题方式有诱导性．．．至少我是被诱导了．．．选e不是搬起石头砸自己的脚吗？？？

还有一个问题忘了问，如果选e的话＂Their assessment of the relevance and limitations of Western feminist theory ＂，limitation很好理解，可是relevance在哪里可以体现的出来呢？晕了．．．

马上就要考了，拜托大家．．．
