GWD-1-Q4 to GWD-1-Q6:

第一段 The fields of antebellum (pre-Civil
War) political history and women’s his-
tory use separate sources and focus
Line on separate issues. (第一句講出兩種觀點，特重要) Political histori-
(5) ans, examining sources such as voting
records, newspapers, and politicians’
writings, focus on the emergence in the
1840’s of a new “American political
nation,” and since women were neither
(10) voters nor politicians, they receive little
discussion. Women’s historians, mean-
while, have shown little interest in the
subject of party politics, instead draw-
ing on personal papers, legal records
(15) such as wills, and records of female
associations to illuminate women’s
domestic lives, their moral reform
activities, and the emergence of the
woman’s rights movement. (講來講去就是第一句話，是事實，不難)

第二段
(20) However,(講完事實通常就是考轉折，不難，意料之中) most historians have
underestimated the extent and signifi-
cance of women’s political allegiance
in the antebellum period.(第二段第一句當然是重點句，特別注意) For example,
in the presidential election campaigns
(25) of the 1840’s, the Virginia Whig party
strove to win the allegiance of Virginia’s
women by inviting them to rallies and
speeches. According to Whig propa-
ganda, women who turned out at the
(30) party’s rallies gathered information
that enabled them to mold party-loyal
families, reminded men of moral values
that transcended party loyalty, and
conferred moral standing on the party.
(35) Virginia Democrats, in response,
began to make similar appeals to
women as well. By the mid-1850’s
the inclusion of women in the rituals of
party politics had become common-
(40) place, and the ideology that justified
such inclusion had been assimilated
by the Democrats.

仔細回想本篇文章，首段呈現事實，第二段作者以however與underestimate表達態度，是一篇有負面態度指出原本觀點不對的文章

[agk99]

GWD-1-Q4:
The primary purpose of the passage as a whole is to

A. examine the tactics of antebellum political parties with regard to women
B. trace the effect of politics on the emergence of the woman’s rights movement
C. point out a deficiency in the study of a particular historical period
D. discuss the ideologies of opposing antebellum political parties
E. contrast the methodologies in two differing fields of historical inquiry

不知道這一題大夥有沒有問題，但我發現只有C的deficiency可以對映到文章的 underestimate，所以選C

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GWD-1-Q5:
According to the second paragraph of the passage (lines 20-42), Whig propaganda included the assertion that

A. women should enjoy more political rights than they did
B. women were the most important influences on political attitudes within a family (太武斷)
C. women’s reform activities reminded men of important moral values (與文章不合)
D. women’s demonstrations at rallies would influence men’s voting behavior
E. women’s presence at rallies would enhance the moral standing of the party
看倒數第二句，就是選E

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GWD-1-Q6: E 最後一句
According to the passage, which of the following was true of Virginia Democrats in the mid-1850’s?

A. They feared that their party was losing its strong moral foundation. (無關)
B. They believed that the Whigs’ inclusion of women in party politics had led to the Whigs’ success in many elections. (沒說)
C. They created an ideology that justified the inclusion of women in party politics. (不是維吉尼亞人create的)
D. They wanted to demonstrate that they were in support of the woman’s rights movement.
E. They imitated the Whigs’ efforts to include women in the rituals of party politics. (對了，就是最後一句話再講一次)

感想:

分析類型文章，有作者態度，都是在第二段以後才會出現，統常考點都在第二段，第一段只需注意第一句即可，但第二段份量很重，通常要比第一段留心

主體類型文章的考法，我個人理解很像CR中的bold face題，讀完後閉上眼想一遍即可。

我的問題有些笨
請大家多包含

Q6 According to the passage, which of the following was true of Virginia Democrats in the mid-1850’s?

A. They feared that their party was losing its strong moral foundation.

B. They believed that the Whigs’ inclusieon of women in party politics had led to the Whigs’ success in many elections.

E. They imitated the Whigs’ efforts to include women in the rituals of party politics.

當初我在選時
這3個選項猶疑很久....waste time

首先a;我的思路如下
因為文章中清楚說明"Vrginia Democrats, in response,began to make similar appeals to women as well. "
所以我推測他們自己的黨失去moral foundation,所以才要仿效


至於b;因為Whig吸引婦女的策略大成功,所以V黨也要仿效


正確解答e; 正解在最後一句,這我知道到,只是a/b該如何排除??

回應Clara

第六題我再看了一次，我覺得選項A你的想法可能有過度推論
選項B則是文章內並沒有提到選舉獲勝不獲勝的問題

我想，RC的選項說難不難，但說簡單也不簡單，你必須看清楚文章說了什麼，除非是infer題，否則不該妄自推論，這樣會很危險。這題既是問你何者正確，那麼沒說的就視為錯，有講的又正確，當然就大膽選。

當然，你也可以用語氣選，A太過悲觀，B太過樂觀，在我看來，最後一段是中性表達，只是講事實，不用想太多。

To Clara

我覺得你沒有讀懂最後一句話的意思,,,,,,
另外assilmilated可以跟imitated做很好的linking

[Clara]

同意agk
感謝你
你指出了我一個很大的毛病--過度推論
仔細想想
我不只是rc的東西如此,我在cr更容易犯這樣的錯
關於rc我想我還沒抓出精隨
也就是文章真正要表達的topic
因為rc很tricky....也可以說我太笨
它在真正的主軸之下,加上一些雜七雜八的資訊
而我很容易被這些資訊遷著鼻子走......




關於最後一句
很可能是我理解度不好
可以翻成中文給我好嗎?

第6提的正解看35-37行也行

你是說這句ㄇ By the mid-1850’s
the inclusion of women in the rituals of
party politics had become common-
(40) place, and the ideology that justified
such inclusion had been assimilated
by the Democrats.

在1850年代中期, 對於鄉下女性的涵蓋範圍的政黨政策已變的很普遍了,而且那些的觀念都已經被民主黨所認同.

[swallowlily79]

請問各位：

29行從women開始到32行的families要怎樣翻譯？gathered information that enabled...是指收集能夠..的資訊嗎？另外關於turn out 要怎樣解釋呢？

[dennis_wtliu]

turn out是指出席吧 我想

FYI

[Lian]

請問Q5(C)women’s reform activities reminded men of important moral values不是可由line32~33得知嗎?
請各位大大解惑
感恩

請各位大大解惑

我想是reform activities這個字有問題吧...
回到文章看，其意思應該不是women's reform activities
women turn out at party's rallies （出席政黨集會）
沒有reform，只有幫他們收集資料，而mold party-loyal families，提醒men of moral values是優於party loyalty的
所以E囉！女人的出現在集會上，增強政黨道德...

個人意見...參考一下唄

[Cher]

那請教一下各位大大
Q5的(D)選項和(E)要怎麼去選呢?
是 demonstration這個字有問題嗎???

謝謝...
