While acknowledging that

       there are greater employment

       opportunities for Latin Ameri-

Line       can women in cities than in the

  (5)      countryside, social science

theorists have continued to

argue that urban migration

has unequivocally hurt

women’s status.  However,

 (10)      the effects of migration are

more complex than these

theorists presume.  For

example, effects can vary

depending on women’s

 (15)      financial condition and social

class.  Brazilian women in the

lowest socioeconomic class

have relatively greater job

opportunities and job security

 (20)      in cities than do men of the

       same class, although there is

       no compelling evidence that

for these women the move to

the city is a move out of pov-

 (25)      erty.  Thus, these women

may improve their status in

relation to men but at the

same time may experience

no improvement in their

 (30)      economic standing.

      In addition, working out-

side the home, which is more

       common in urban than in rural

areas, helps women in the

 (35)
                       lowest socioeconomic class

make contacts to extend

exchange networks—the flow

of gifts, loans, or child care

      from those who currently

 (40)     have access to resources

to those who do not.  More-

over, poor women working in

urban areas actively seek to

cultivate long-term employer-

 (45)      employee relations.  When

an emergency arises that

requires greater resources

than an exchange network

can provide, these women

 (50)      often appeal for and receive

aid from their wealthy employ-

ers.  However, the structure

of many poor women’s

work—often a labor force

 (55)      of one in an employer’s

home—makes it difficult for

them to organize to improve

their economic conditions in

general.

 (60)            Not surprisingly, then,

Latin American women in the

lowest socioeconomic class

differ in their opinions about

the effects of urban migration

 (65)      on their lives.  Some find

urban living, with access to

electricity and running water,

an improvement and would

never return to the country-

 (70)      side.  Others, disliking the

overcrowding and crime,

would return to the country-

side if there were work

opportunities for them there.

 (75)      Thus, urban life has had both

negative and positive impacts

on women’s lives.  In gen-

eral, urban migration has not

provided economic pros-

(80)         perity or upward mobility for

women in the lowest socio-

economic class, despite their

intelligent and energetic utili-

zation of the resources

available to them.

Q24 答案怎麼會是B阿  超怪的!

明明就是C阿!

More-over, poor women working in

urban areas actively seek to

cultivate long-term employer-

 (45)      employee relations.  When

requires greater resources

than an exchange network

can provide, these women

 (50)      often appeal for and receive

根本就是C選項說的 "it is difficult for these women to find employers who are supportive when emergencies arise."!!

mm定位完全正确啊，怎么题做错了？

1. 黄色部分证明了C：It is difficult for these women to find employers who are supportive when emergencies arise.是错误的，原文说these women often appeal for and receive aid from their wealthy employers    

2.绿色部分证明B：It is difficult for these women to organize effectively in order to obtain better wages.是正确的， 原文说 makes it difficult for them to organize to improve their economic conditions in general.

difficult to organize to improve their economic conditions = difficult to organize to obtain better wages

請問各位NN,下列這句怎麼解釋啊?尤其是often a labor force of one in an employer’s home的work structure是怎樣的structure?? 不懂為何會導致difficult for them to organize to improve their economic conditions in general？？
