12题D项中的during the eighteenth century没有问题吗？

At first, I also felt it's problematic, but later I'm convinced D is the right answer. During the 18th century, the revolution happened in 1773-1785, which is 18th century. So it's ok

后面两题同意, 第10题应该是E. 看原文:

            rior to Kerber’s work,

educational historians barely mentioned

women and girls; Thomas Woody’s 1929

(25)       work is the notable exception.

在K之前的作品很少提到women和girls,除了TW. 取非不就是TW提到了girls嘛,而且是atypical的.

第12我一开始也选了D,但是后来发现TW的理论说的也是18世纪的问题,D明显是不对了. 回头看B, 既然原文焦点在于是不是revolution改变了对妇女受教育的态度,它其实也等于在讨论revolution前到底有没有对妇女受教育的关注.也就等于讨论revolution前support的程度. 而且大家有没有注意, TW的书里只提到了girls,没有提到women.

第10题中e中的atypical意思是非典型的，和typical意思刚好相反。

对啊,atypical不就是原文exception的改写嘛.

我今天再次做到这个题目.发现题干中还有一个重要的提示.方便浏览起见,再贴一次题目:

According to the passage, within the field of educational history, Thomas Woody’s 1929 work was

              

innovative because it relied on newspaper advertisements as evidence

exceptional in that it concentrated on the period before the American Revolution

unusual in that it focused on educational attitudes rather than on educational practices

controversial in its claims regarding educational opportunities for boys

atypical in that it examined the education of girls

黄色的地方,是题干给出的限定条件,也就是说,题目其实问的是,在教育的历史中,TW有什么特点.文章只有二段提到了educational  history,原文如下:

Introduction of the republican moth-

          erhood thesis dramatically changed

          historiography.  rior to Kerber’s work,

educational historians barely mentioned

women and girls; Thomas Woody’s 1929

(25)       work is the notable exception.  Examining

newspaper advertisements for acade-

mies, Woody found that educational

opportunities increased for both girls

and boys around 1750.

既然文章问的是教育历史的领域中,那么应该对educational historians取非,也就是文章告诉你的exception.所以答案应该是E.

牛牛指教!

我怎么觉得你把意思理解反了。原文是说historians barely mentioned

women and girls，然后TW是个显著的例外，也就是说她在研究women和girl方面很突出。

Q10：

According to the passage, within the field of educational history, Thomas Woody’s 1929 work was atypical in that it examined the education of girls。这句话意思和文章的意思刚好相反。

同意携隐.

To 流沙, 这句话就是原文的意思. Atypical就是例外的意思, 因为当时历史学家没有研究妇女的教育问题, 而TW研究了, 所以TW是个例外.

总算得到rhod版版的支持,这阵子怎么好像我跟大家的阅读答案都有点出入,搞的我都不敢轻易对每一题的答案下定论了
