其实是个傻问题。。。不过我确实没想通
Two modes of argumentation have been used on behalf of women’s emancipation in Western societies. Arguments in what could be called the “relational” feminist tradition maintain the doctrine of “equality in difference,” or equity as distinct for equality. They posit that biological distinctions between the sexes result in a necessary sexual division of laborin the family and throughout society and that women’s procreative labor is currently undervalued by society, to the disadvantage of women. By contrast, the individualist feminist tradition emphasizes individual human rights and celebrates women’s quest for personal autonomy, while downplaying the importance of gender roles and minimizing discussion of childbearing and its attendantresponsibilities.

Before the late nineteenth century, these views coexisted within the feminist movement, often within the writings of the same individual. Between 1890 and 1920, however, relational feminism, which had been the dominant strain in feminist thought, and which still predominates among European and non-Western feminists, lost ground in England and the United States. Because the concept of individual rights was already well established in the Anglo-Saxon legal and political tradition, individualist feminism came to predominate in English-speaking countries. At the same time, the goals of the two approaches began to seem increasingly irreconcilable. Individualist feminists began to advocate a totally gender-blind system with equal rights for all. Relational feminists, while agreeing that equal educational and economic opportunities outside the home should be available for all women, continued to emphasize women’s special contributions to society as homemakers and mothers; they demanded special treatment including protective legislation for women workers, state-sponsored maternity benefits, and paid compensation for housework.

Relational arguments have a major pitfall: because they underline women’s physiological and psychological distinctiveness, they are often appropriatedby political adversaries and used to endorse male privilege. But the individualist approach, by attacking gender roles, denying the significance of physiological difference, and condemning existing familial institutions as hopelessly patriarchal, has often simply treated as irrelevant the family roles important to many women. If the individualist framework, with its claim for women’s autonomy, could be harmonized with the family-oriented concerns of relational feminists, a more fruitful model for contemporary feminist politics could emerge.


According to the passage, relational feminists and individualist feminists agree that
(C) laws guaranteeing equal treatment for all citizens regardless of gender should be passed
(E) the same educational and economic opportunities should be available to both sexes

我还定位到了：while agreeing that equal educational and economic opportunities outside the home should be available for all women
可C为什么不对呢？我以为C说要有一部男女享有平等权利的法律
难道regardless of gender 在这里说的不是男女平等（所以不管性别差异）的意思？
我很困惑，横看竖看C都是对的。。。。

又看了遍，C还是对的，真是对的。。。。。

想问个有点抽象的问题～
该怎么练习对句子的准确理解呢？
这两天我在练习翻译文章～进度很慢。。。
我需要看杨继（好像叫这个吧）的长难句吗？
（如果是在时间比较有限的情况下。。。。。。）

我没看原文，就看你找到定位 law在哪里？我没看见，相反，你看e是不是就是你找的那句话的完整对应
我没练杨继，阅读是功夫活，天天积累，练习，2周左右会有提高的，多练语法，也可以煅炼你的句子分析，效果很好，一箭双雕
