Some scholars have argued that Garvey created the consciousness from which he built, in the 1920s, the largest revitalization movement in African American history. 我的翻译:他创造了这种意识,这个非洲历史上最大的复兴运动是他从这种意识中建立的。也就是说意识创造了运动。
16.推论题 It can be inferred from the passage that the "scholars" mentioned in line 24 believe which of the following to be true? (A) Revitalization resulted from the political activism of returning African American soldiers following the First World War. MG的积极性,黑人只是参与,而且本身没关系 (B) Marcus Garvey had to change a number of prevailing attitudes in order for his mas movement to find a foothold in the United States. 为了运动不得不改变一些态度,符合意识造就运动这个意思 (C) The prevailing sensibility of the African American community provided the foundation of Marcus Garvey's political appeal. 黑人社区给MG的consciousness 提供基础,但是scholars认为意识造就运动,所以在这里排除。 (D) Marcus Garvey hoped to revitalize consciousness of cultural and historical identity in the African American community. 这里是在黑人社区中复兴,黑人社区先有的。但应该是意识造就运动的,所以排除 (E) The goal of the mass movement that Marcus Garvey helped bring into being was to build on the pride and unity among African Americans. 运动的目的是为了在黑人之中建立pride and unity(consciousness),在这里运动先存在的,不符合 学者看法 意识造就运动。。所以排除
Schloars的观点是,在African American社会里原来是没有Identity, strength, and sense of history这些意识的。这些意识是由Garvey带来或者创造出来的(...the consciousness from which he built,...愚见,此处which 指代后面的发生在1920的AA历史上最大的复兴运动)
而作者的观点是,这些意识本来就有了,Garvey只不过是帮助通过政治的方式表达出来(Garvey did not create this consciousness; rather, he gave this consciousness its political expression)
he built the largest re movement from consc。。。这这句话不是说:他从意识中创造了运动,
后面说sense of history that already existed in the African American community
这个的意思不是说:这个意识已经在AA社会中存在了
最后的结论:
Garvey did not create this consciousness; rather, he gave this consciousness its political expression.
G没有创造这个意思,相反他给予这个意识政治性质
