Essay #8. 219 (22388-!-item-!-188;#058&00219-00)

Although the industrial union organizations that emerged under the banner of the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) in the 1930s and 1940s embraced the principles of nondiscrimination and inclusion, the role of women within unions reflected the prevailing gender ideology of the period. Elizabeth Faue's study of the labor movement in Minneapolis argues that women were marginalized by union bureaucratization and by the separation of unions from the community politics from which industrial unionism had emerged. Faue stresses the importance of women's contribution to the development of unions at the community level, contributions that made women's ultimate fate within the city's labor movement all the more poignant: as unions reached the peak of their strength in the 1940s, the community base that had made their success possible and to which women's contributions were so vital became increasingly irrelevant to unions' institutional life.

In her study of CIO industrial unions from the 1930s to the 1970s, Nancy F. Gabin also acknowledges the pervasive male domination in the unions, but maintains that women workers were able to create a political space within some unions to advance their interests as women. Gabin shows that, despite the unions' tendency to marginalize women's issues, working women's demands were a constant undercurrent within the union, and she stresses the links between the unions' women activists and the wave of feminism that emerged in the 1960s.

Q34. p2-rc Question #25. 219-01 (22434-!-item-!-188;#058&000219-01)

According to the passage, Faue's study and Gabin's study agree in that both

(A) attribute the inclusion of women in unions to the policies of the CIO
(B) emphasize the importance of unions at the community level
(C) argue that women played important roles in the establishment of industrial union organizations
(D) suggest that women in industrial union organizations played a subordinate role
(E) suggest that the interests of women workers were incompatible with those of unions in general

Q35. p2-rc Question #26. 219-02 (22480-!-item-!-188;#058&000219-02)

Which of the following can be inferred regarding the "gender ideology" mentioned in the highlighted text?

(A) It prevented women from making significant contributions to the establishment of industrial unions.
(B) It resulted from the marginalization of women in industrial unions.
(C) It had a significant effect on the advancement of women's issues within industrial unions.
(D) Its primary tenets were nondiscrimination and inclusion.
(E) Its effects were mitigated by the growth of industrial unions.

Q36. p2-rc Question #27. 219-04 (22526-!-item-!-188;#058&000219-04)

The author of the passage is primarily concerned with

(A) presenting two views
(B) reconciling two antithetical claims
(C) assessing conflicting evidence
(D) weakening a generally accepted argument
(E) tracing the development of an ideology
答案分别是DCA
我完全没一个对的，阅读还从未出现这个情况，看了答案觉得答案问题很大啊。第一题我选的是C，因为很明显两位学者的研究都是对于女性在CIO中的贡献一直被忽略，而其实却是一直发挥很大作用的。
求解啊，大晚上的实在太打击人了，都是要去考的人，突然被这弄得。。。

(E) suggest that the interests of women workerswere incompatible with those of unions in general
选D定位在第二段红字 Nancy F. Gabin also acknowledges thepervasive male domination in the unions Gabin这个人也赞同在公会里男性处于主导地位，D选项是同义转述：女性处于从属地位。MM文章要多看几遍，他们两人都没有说女性作用大

Q35. p2-rc Question #26. 219-02 (22480-!-item-!-188;#058&000219-02)

Which of the following can be inferred regardingthe "gender ideology" mentioned in the highlighted text?

(A) It prevented women from making significantcontributions to the establishment of industrial unions.
(B) It resulted from the marginalization of womenin industrial unions.
(C) It had a significant effect on the advancementof women's issues within industrial unions.
(D) Its primary tenets were nondiscrimination andinclusion.
(E) Its effects were mitigated by the growth ofindustrial unions.
选Cgender ideology 性别意识。这个词出现在第一句主旨句中，然后才出现两个学家的观点。第一句意思是说：尽管公会以非性别歧视为原则，但是女性地位仍然体现了流行的性别意识（即，没有真正的性别平等）。后文就继续讲述，这种性别意识对公会产生的影响

Q36. p2-rc Question #27. 219-04 (22526-!-item-!-188;#058&000219-04)

The author of the passage is primarily concernedwith

(A) presenting two views
(B) reconciling two antithetical claims
(C) assessing conflicting evidence
(D) weakening a generally accepted argument
(E) tracing the development of an ideology
选A文章第一句主旨句，然后分别客观陈述2个学者的观点，作者没有提出任何自己的主观看法，没有提出任何评论

恩，仔细读一遍，加上把几个不认识的单词查清楚，文章主旨的确明白点了，后面两题答案还是很容易理解和选择的，但是第一题我还是有一些疑问，当然第二段那句话的确是D选项的同义句，但是第一位学者的观点却没有做出一样的表达，第一位学者第一句就说女性在工会中扮演的角色反应了那一时期主导的性别观念。但后面她马上说女性其实是被边缘化了，可以猜出这是由于gender ideology的关系，接着她强调了妇女对工会在社团这一层面发展的重要性，而这一贡献却使得妇女在劳动运动中的境遇更加悲惨，后面就解释为什么这样说，因为工会到达自身力量壮大的顶峰，但促使其成功的社团基石却变得对工会组织生活更加不重要了，而社团基石是妇女贡献最重要的地方。
由此可见妇女的贡献促成社团这一基石，而社团基石为工会力量到达顶峰铺平道路，所以这位学者是认可妇女在工会建立过程中是发挥重要作用的。不过第二段中的学者却没有表达这样的意思，我觉得两位学者其实是在一个问题上表达了不同层面的观点，不矛盾，但也没有怎么重合，CD选项看起来都不大合适，但其他选项当然更加不合适。
不知道我的理解对不对，求指点啊！！

Faue stresses the importance of women's contribution 他强调了女性的贡献，“贡献contribution”不等于“地位role”，女性贡献是很大，可是在公会里的domination role，占主导、统治地位的还是男人。

Nancy F. Gabin also acknowledges thepervasive male domination in the unions。这句话里的also一词很重要，说明Gabin也赞同Faue的这个观点，即male domination in the unions这是两者的一致观点

luciole · 发表于 2010-9-15 15:22:01

恩，看到那个also，感觉是有点这样的意思在，谢谢指点，我想可能第一位作者所说的边缘化就是只女性其实处于从属地位吧。看来要这样理解！

这篇文章就算是看懂了三个题目也很难选对
