就是评估(驳斥）第一句中的那些人的观点（an author)

C 是 right

ozymendias

Yet perhaps because the Supreme Court later struck down the ruling, politicians and scholars have failed to recognize its effects, assuming that employers adopted maternity-leave policies in response to the growing feminization of the workforce.回答kevinli120struck down the ruling 对应policy has been eliminated.   就是说虽然法律被eliminate 了但由于媒体的关注employer采取了materity-leave policies所以选C

个人觉得还应该一起看前面一句：
Because the 1972 EEOC ruling was contested in court, the ruling won press attention that popularized maternity-leave policies。
虽然这个ruling受到了争议，但仍然对press有很大影响
Yet perhaps because the Supreme Court later struck down the ruling, politicians and scholars have failed to recognize its effects, assuming that 。。。
然而也许因为这个ruling被eliminated，politicians和scholars 错误地将其影响假定为是。。。
作者的言下之意就是这个ruling虽然被灭了，但是还是很有影响的，只不过政治家和学者将其认为是其他的。。。
一个failed就体现了作者的态度
所以C正确

文章大意：1972年的EEOC规定颁布之后，许多employer提出了新的产假政（maternity-leave policies）。government以为employer的这种行为是由于劳动力女性化（growing feminization of the workforce）所导致，但本文作者认为是1972 EEOC ruling was contested in court所引发的the ruling won press attention that popularized maternity-leave policies导致employer提出了新的产假政策。

Employers did create maternity-leave programs in the 1970’s and 1980’s, but not as a purely voluntary response in the absence of any government mandate这句是关键，这句以后文章都在说employers是怎么被动地承认接受的，虽然他们arguing prior to the passage of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) of 1993, employers were already providing maternity leave
increasing feminization of the workplace 作者是没有给出相关的态度的 因此不对

文章开始：Many politicians, business leaders, and scholars discount the role of public policy and emphasize the role of the labor market when explaining employers’ maternity-leave policies 感觉就是说26题中A啊。就是他们认为这两个因素的比重不同啊？？

Q26

In 1972, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) ruled that employers who allowed leaves for disabling medical conditions must also allow them for maternity and that failure to do so would constitute sex discrimination under the Civil Rights Act of 1964.  As early as 1973, a survey found that 58 percent of large employers had responded with new maternity-leave policies.

Because the 1972 EEOC ruling was contested in court, the ruling won press attention that popularized maternity-leave policies.  Yet perhaps because the Supreme Court later struck dow（废除） the ruling, politicians and scholars have failed to recognize its effects, assuming that employers adopted maternity-leave policies in response to the growing feminization of the workforce.
选D
加粗字体——作者认为employer这么做是因为EEOC的rule，而政客学者因为最高法院废除了这个rule就fail to认识到这个rule的作用而认为是工作场所女性职员的增加而促使employer实行产假制度
