Q19: GWD-29-Q14

In 1850 Lucretia Mott published her Discourse on Women, arguing in a treatise for women to have equal political and legal rights and for changes in the married women’s property laws.

 

1. arguing in a treatise for women to have equal political and legal rights
2. arguing in a treatise for equal political and legal rights for women
3. a treatise that advocates women’s equal political and legal rights
4. a treatise advocating women’s equal political and legal rights
5. a treatise that argued for equal political and legal rights for women

The key is E, I chose A.

Questions:

1. can a treatise argue?

2. In E, isnt it unclear about which "for" is parallel with "for changes in the married women’s property laws"?

Plz help, NN

1，是的可以argue

2，后面有for changes前面就必须有一个for词组跟它对称，A只有for women明显不对称，更错

chamcham

that is true, I overlooked A's trick part: reversing "to have" and "for women" so A is definitely out.

As long as treatise can argue, E is better.
