GWD-1-5一问

northeuro

      However, most historians have

underestimated the extent and signifi-

cance of women’s political allegiance

in the antebellum period.  For example,

            in the presidential election campaigns

(25)     of the 1840’s, the Virginia Whig party

strove to win the allegiance of Virginia’s

women by inviting them to rallies and

speeches.  According to Whig propa-

ganda, women who turned out at the

(30)     party’s rallies gathered information

that enabled them to mold party-loyal

families, reminded men of moral values

            that transcended party loyalty, and con-

ferred moral standing on the party.

(35)     Virginia Democrats, in response,

            began to make similar appeals to

women as well.  By the mid-1850’s

the inclusion of women in the rituals of

party politics had become common-

(40)     place, and the ideology that justified

such inclusion had been assimilated

by the Democrats.

Q5:

According to the second paragraph of the passage (lines 20-42), Whig propaganda included the assertion that

women should enjoy more political rights than they did

women  were the most important influences on political attitudes within a family

women’s reform activities reminded men of important moral values

women’s demonstrations at rallies would influence men’s voting behavior

women’s presence at rallies would enhance the moral standing of the party

选项E是如何从原句当中判断得？谢谢NN指教！

reminded men of moral values
            that transcended party loyalty, and con-
ferred moral standing on the party.

这个是原文的定位。

说说偶的理解吧。

A。原文没有说到enjoy的内容，错。

B。most important influences ，原文没有出现，错。

C。women’s reform activities reminded men of important moral values。文中应该是

women who turned out at the
(30)     party’s rallies gathered information
that enabled them to mold party-loyal
families, reminded men of moral values
            that transcended party loyalty, and con-
ferred moral standing on the party.

D。voting behavior，无关，错。

分析的太象逻辑题了--无关排除法。

呵呵，刚看过这道题，除了用排除法外，还可以直接选啊，就是“con-
ferred moral standing on the party”意思的改写啊，关键是要懂得CONFER（ 赋与； 使具有）的意思，我最先做的时候就不懂。

E选项中的 PRESENCE 对应原文的 TURN OUT ， TURN OUT 在这里意思是出现。

大家说的是很有道理，不过原文只是and conferred moral standing on the party.似乎和答案里的enhance有一定差距。

如果根据第二段的内容来理解，妇女以前从不涉足政治。而in the antebellum period她们开始参与，并有一定的活动。是不是可以广义上理解为women's reform activities呢？

顶！

无比

我也是选C。

其实文中有几处mold party-loyalfamilies   , reminded men of moral values that transcended party loyalty,     and con-ferred moral standing on the party.

都是并列的呀........

这一题我不会选，就猜了一个D，当时是想，邀请妇女是为了在总统大选中赢得妇女的忠诚，而那时妇女还没有投票权（第一段说的），就通过让妇女影响男人的投票选择来影响大选。

而且不知道E中的enhance对应哪一词，是transcended吗

moral standing of the party是什么意思？

我对这个and conferred moral standing on the party.似乎和答案里的enhance有一定差距。也不能理解，

谁能解释一下呢，

还有D为什么不能呢，妇女影响了men 的行为，我觉得挺对的啊，为什么是无关呢
