32. **学者高估了Quakers对妇女反对男权婚姻的影响（GWD原文）
直接上原文了

In her accountof unmarried women’s experiences in colonial Philadelphia, Wulf argues thateducated young women, particularly Quakers教友派信徒, engaged inresistance to patriarchal 家族的marriage by exchanging poetry critical ofmarriage, copying verse into their commonplace books.  Wulf suggests thatthis critique circulated beyond the daughters of the Quaker elite and middleclass, whose commonplace books she mines, proposing that Quaker schools broughtit to many poor female students of diverse backgrounds.

Here Wulf probably overstates Quaker schools’ impact. At least three years’ study would be necessary to achieve the literacycompetence necessary to grapple 抓住with the material she analyzes. In 1765, theyear Wulf uses to demonstrate the diversity of Philadelphia’s Quaker schools,128 students enrolled in these schools.  Refining Wulf’s numbers by theinformation she provides on religious affiliation, gender, and length of study,it appears that only about 17 poor non-Quaker girls were educated inPhiladelphia’s Quaker schools for three years or longer.  While Wulf iscorrect that a critique of patriarchal marriage circulated broadly, Quakerschools probably cannot becredited with instilling these ideas in the lower classes.  Popularliterary satires on marriage had already landed on fertile ground in amultiethnic population that embodied a wide range of marital beliefs and practices.Theseethnic- and class-based traditions themselves challenged the legitimacy ofpatriarchal marriage.

W说 Quker （中产阶级 知识分子 小资女性的团体 我猜想的 我也不清楚） school 影响很大 连 很多穷人女性也 影响到了

下文反驳 说其实不然 W过分夸大了 学校的影响 因为 至少三年 才能掌握知识 和阅读能力
接下来提供数据继续削弱 w强调 school 影响巨大的观点

it appears that only about 17 poor non-Quaker girls were educated inPhiladelphia’s Quaker schools for three years or longer.
这是细节 是数据 它的作用在于削弱  别过分纠结于他的逻辑性 毕竟贵族学校也可以招收穷学生 非教友会的子弟吗……

记住 GMAT 文章的语言 必然晦涩难懂
GMAC老头想显示自己的水平高 他们有这样的幻觉
“你看我们的文章一般人读不懂”
“多高级啊 这可是个很高端的考试”
GMAT文章有时连逻辑都有问题  以此来看都不是什么很好的文章
真正好的文章是让人看得懂的  能够传达意思即可
不能用晦涩的语言来显示你的高深
而且这些做研究的人 语文真不见得那么好
你多看看英文文章就有感觉了
还有你纠结这垃圾文章干嘛……
这篇文章就是在讨论一个观点 学校影响大
并且反驳这个观点 没了 一点意义都没有
GMAC 是公平的出题组
美国历史问题
女权 黑人问题 都要出题
然而这些都是很难的文章
我觉得这篇文章也确实很难！
