GWD做到现在发现的几乎最难的一篇，求助

In a 1918 editorial, W.E.B. Du Bois

advised African Americans to stop

agitating for equality and to proclaim

Line their solidarity with White Americans

 (5) for the duration of the First World War.

The editorial surprised many African

Americans who viewed Du Bois as

an uncompromising African American

leader and a chief opponent of the

(10) accommodationist tactics urged by

Booker, T.Washington. //  In fact,

however, Du Bois often shifted posi-

tions along the continuum between

Washington and confrontationists

(15) such as William Trotter. // In 1895,

when Washington called on African

Americans to concentrate on improving

their communities instead of oppos-

ing discrimination and agitating for

(20) political rights, Du Bois praised

Washington’s speech.  // In 1903,

however, Du Bois aligned himself

with Trotter, Washington’s militant

opponent, less for ideological reasons

(25) than because Trotter had described

to him Washington’s efforts to silence

those in the African American press

who opposed Washington’s positions，

(30) reflected not a change in his long-term

goals but rather a pragmatic response

in the face of social pressure:

government officials had threatened

African American journalists with

(35) censorship if they continued to voice

grievances.// Furthermore, Du Bois

believed that African Americans’

contributions to past war efforts had

brought them some legal and political

(40) advances. //Du Bois’ accommoda-

tionism did not last, however. Upon

learning of systematic discrimination

experienced by African Americans

in the military, he called on them to

“return fighting” from the war.

我不明白的几点：

1、1903那部分，我觉得文章很矛盾：T告诉B，你和同党W假和平真内战，不要和他一起，我主战，来吧——这不是搬起石头砸自己的脚吗

2、further more表示递进，但是前后的观点却相反，前面是和T激进，后面则是温和，而这个furthermore更让我觉得W才是主战，对手T主和，主和的B找到了真正的同伙T——问题是，如果这样理解，1918之前，B一直都是主和了，就不应该surprising了

3、25题选E，E就是further more后面几句的改写，文章怎么把这和开头段联系起来的？

4、说到他1903主战，我觉得很矛盾一点是文章说了当时的社会背景是压迫那些主战的人，W因此虚伪和平，实际没有改变long-term view，也就是说W实际也是主战，那么Bois为什么放弃了他，选择了T


哪位高人给小弟解答一下，不胜感激

哪位牛牛可以解答一下，多谢！

however, Du Bois often shifted posi-

tions along the continuum between

Washington and confrontationists , 就看这句，他经常变

１８９５，Du Bois praised ，Washington’s speech．Du Bois赞同Washington

In 1903, however, Du Bois aligned himself with Trotter, Washington’s militant
     opponent, less for ideological reasons

Du Bois同Trotter一起反对Washington

回到文章开头，In 1918 ，Du Bois的主张又不同Washington对立了，又同Washington的主张一样了

他们三人都是civil rights activist ，他们的最终目的应该都是一样的，为黑人争取civil rights，主张采取什么方式，有时不一样．
Du Bois often shifted positions．
