Recent feminist scholarship con- cerning the United States in the 1920’s challenges earlier interpretations that Line assessed the twenties in terms of the (5) unkept “promises” of the women’s suffrage movement. This new scholar- ship disputes the long-held view that because a women’s voting bloc did not materialize after women gained the right (10) to vote in 1920, suffrage failed to produce long-term political gains for women. These feminist scholars also challenge the old view that pronounced suffrage a failure for not delivering on (15) the promise that the women’s vote would bring about moral, corruption- free governance. Asked whether women’s suffrage was a failure, these scholars cite the words of turn-of-the- (20) century social reformer Jane Addams, “Why don’t you ask if suffrage in general is failing?”学者的观点认为suffrage是失败 In some ways, however, these递进 scholars still present the 1920’s as a (25) period of decline. After suffrage, they argue, the feminist movement lost its cohesiveness, and gender conscious- ness waned. After the mid-1920’s, few successes could be claimed by fem- (30) inist reformers: little could be seen in the way of legislative victories. 衰退的年代 new scholarship的另一观点 During this decade, however, there was intense activism aimed at achiev- ing increased autonomy for women, (35) broadening the spheres within which they lived their daily lives. Women’s organizations worked to establish opportunities for women: they strove to secure for women the full entitlements (40) of citizenship, including the right to hold office and the right to serve on juries.最终观点 不同意recent的观点 老新观点 逻辑简图: 1P: recent scholarship challenges earlier interpretations unkept “promise” of women suffrage. Disputes, also challenges older view… 2P: in some ways, however, decline…. 3P: during this decade, however, intense activism…. Women’ organization worked to establish opportunities for women… 我想问整个文章的基调: 蓝色的部分是大牛的标注 大牛说“学者的观点认为suffrage是失败“,我怎么觉得应该反过来呢? 第一段: long-held view that because a women’s voting bloc did not materialize after women gained the right (10) to vote in 1920, suffrage failed to produce long-term political gains for women. 划线的部分应该是老观点啊,而老观点认为suffrage失败,那么学者的观点跟老观点相反,就应该支持suffrage是成功的 再来看后面一句: These feminist scholars also challenge the old view that pronounced suffrage a failure for not delivering on (15) the promise that the women’s vote would bring about moral, corruption- free governance. 划线部分仍然应该是老观点 但是矛盾来了,第三局: Asked whether women’s suffrage was a failure, these scholars cite the words of turn-of-the- century social reformer Jane Addams, “Why don’t you ask if suffrage in general is failing?” 这句话到底是什么意思,尤其是JA的???请教大家 再来看第二段首句: In some ways, however, these scholars still present the 1920’s as a period of decline. however 明显是与上一段的意思的让步,而这里是说学者认为20年代有个下降,那么,表示第一段的内容是学者认为他们是支持suffrage的, 而第二段部分说明了在法律角度有个下降 最后一段: During this decade, however, there was intense activism aimed at achiev- ing increased autonomy for women, (35) broadening the spheres within which they lived their daily lives. Women’s organizations worked to establish opportunities for women: they strove to secure for women the full entitlements (40) of citizenship, including the right to hold office and the right to serve on juries。 我觉得这段是作者自己的观点,是部分解释了为什么20年代suffrage有个下降,因为 feminist 专注于别的方面了,即妇女的自治权 本来还想问题目的,昨天作错了2/3,但现在自己写完这个帖子后,发现题目全懂了,呵呵 所以这个帖子变成了仅仅,是想质疑一下大牛第一第二段的解释是不是有点问题, 概括以下:我觉得传统观点认为suffrage是失败的,学者的观点是认为suffrage是成功的,只是在20年代有点小退步,而第三段是作者的观点,认为并不是退步,只是在其他方面有了进步。 花了我半个多小时写的帖子,可一定要有人捧场阿  |
