Which of the following most logically completes the argument below?
The expansion of large-scale farming in Africa and Asia has destroyed much of the natural vegetation on which elephants have historically depended, forcing them to turn to cultivated land to satisfy their enormous appetites. As a result, farmers have lost millions of dollars worth of crops annually. Yet even if elephant sanctuaries were created on a widespread basis to guarantee elephants sufficient natural vegetation, the raiding would likely persist, since

Yet even if elephant sanctuaries were created on a widespread basis to guarantee elephants sufficient natural vegetation, the raiding would likely persist, since
A. when elephants forage for food, they typically travel in herds.
B. Foraging elephants have been known to cause substantial damage even to plants that they do not eat.
C. Some of the land where crops have suffered extensive damage from elephants has been allowed to return to its natural state.

E. Elephant sanctuaries are usually created in areas that are rich in the natural vegetation on which elephants have historically depended.
1.她没参加选举什么的,不符合以前历史学家对political人物的定义。这些历史学家关注elective office,她不是群众选出来的或者政府工作人员。传统观点认为一个成功的政治家应该有竞选,党派,hold major election等等,就像“spokeman"(有题)。
2.她是女人,所以在政治上就容易被边缘化,寻求的目标也很狭隘之类的。
P2. 从第一段的case出发,进行理论上的探讨。feminist开始revise the concept之类的。随着新女权主义家的兴起,重新定义了女政治家的地位。引用一段。这种重新定义的结果是原有那些参加很多社会活动的自愿者等都可以被定义为政治家。因为他们把这些话题引入了人们的视野和讨论。主要就是把b这样的人能包进政治领袖定义里。后来另外一种方法让她的争取权益的运动得到了很好的说辞或者是理论支持。记得一个词是empowerment。最后一句话是作者对这个事情的意思(这句话有考题)。
三、题目 Q1.问主旨(答案超长)
我选的是D貌似,有advocate貌似
很显然是要表扬一下这个人,用新的definition说明她就是political leader.
Q2. 第二段的作用
Q3. B没有做过什么?(except 题)E courts of laws A) National clubs and organizations B) Various editorial and prints C) Educational institutes and resources D) Communities and local groups E) She is not involved in any laws (E is right)
选那个法律有关的/选courts of law
Q4. 高亮spokeman,问有什么作用?
说明B不是传统意义上的政治家,肯定是类似的选项。
为了说明这个女的没资格代表大家争取权利什么的,应该不对的。
说明特定政治家是如何反对作者个观点的
Q5. 为什么说B不是政治家?
好像是没参加正式的选举吧
Q6. 作者最不可能支持什么?
“有B女和新兴女权主义者在某些观点上不一样”
“B女曾经成立过政党,但现在不再了”我选了后者。因为不好定位。
Q7. 作者和2段中的女权主义者都认为什么?
我选:由于新的定义,使得为成功的政治家不用参与政府政治活动
四、备注 两大段,挺长。注意,考点基本在第一段。
这篇生词很少,好好读一下。
这篇有1.5屏 因为例子多
提供狗主英文回忆:
V1 " Although Mrs blah blah blah Bethusia participated in many roles that would label her as a political activist today. On top of being involved in an educational institute which later became the first school of that time. She also was in every aspect of community, social clubs, and government functions. However, since she was not officially appointed or didn’t hold any titles, political historians and politicians of that time did not view her as social reformer. Because of the traditional concept “spoke MAN”, a female did not fit into that description. As political activist should be part of an election process, with party affiliation etc. Even though she help found an institute which later became a sound University, participate … However, with the rise of feminism and female studies into the concept of political activists, there has been a redefinition of the term ‘politicians’. >>>>>>>>>>>> (引用一段,对’politicians’ 的新定义)>>>>>>>> Hence nowadays, with any changes to the current regime will classify as a political act & recognize as a politician, even females that work in the local communities and volunteering services.
