文章同GWD12-q8-q10

Acting on the recommen-
dation of a British government
committee investigating the
Line high incidence in white lead
(5) factories of illness among
employees, most of whom
were women, the Home Sec-
retary proposed in 1895 that
Parliament enact legislation
(10) that would prohibit women from
holding most jobs in white lead
factories. Although the
Women’s Industrial Defence
Committee (WIDC), formed
(15) in 1892 in response to earlier
legislative attempts to restrict
women’s labor, did not dis-
count the white lead trade’s
potential health dangers, it
(20) opposed the proposal, view-
ing it as yet another instance
of limiting women’s work
opportunities. Also opposing
the proposal was the Society
(25) for Promoting the Employment
of Women (SPEW), which
attempted to challenge it by
investigating the causes of ill-
ness in white lead factories.
(30) SPEW contended, and WIDC
concurred, that controllable
conditions in such factories
were responsible for the devel-
opment of lead poisoning.
(35) SPEW provided convincing
evidence that lead poisoning
could be avoided if workers
were careful and clean and
if already extant workplace
(40) safety regulations were
stringently enforced. How-
ever, the Women’s Trade
Union League (WTUL), which
had ceased in the late 1880’s
(45) to oppose restrictions on
women’s labor, supported the
eventually enacted proposal,
in part because safety regu-
lations were generally not
(50) being enforced in white lead
factories, where there were no
unions (and little prospect of
any) to pressure employers to
comply with safety regulations.

q36.The passage suggests that WIDC differed from WTUL in which of the following ways?
a.WIDC believed that the existing safety regulations were adequate to protect women's health, whereas WTUL believed that such regulations needed to be
strengthened.

b.WIDC believed that unions could not succeed in pressuring employers to comply with such regulations, whereas WTUL believed that unions could succeed in doing so.

c.WIDC believed that lead poisoning in white lead factories could be avoided by controlling conditions there, whereas WTUL believed that lead poisoning in such factories could not be avoided no matter how stringently safety regulations were enforced

d.At the time that the legislation concerning white lead factories was proposed, WIDC was primarily concerned with addressing health conditions in white lead factories, whereas WTUL was concerned with improving working conditions in all types of factories.

e.At the time that WIDC was opposing legilative attempts to restrict women's labor, WTUL had already ceased to do so.

答案是E，請問一下答案C會不會比較好(根據粗體部份)

[SugarChunda]

我覺的答案C的錯誤在於您粗體字的下一段話:
SPEW provided convincing
evidence that lead poisoning
could be avoided if workers
were careful and clean and
if already extant workplace
safety regulations were
stringently enforced.
應該是只有 "SPEW" believed that lead poisoning in white lead factories could be avoided by controlling conditions there
"WITC" 只有concurred, that controllable
conditions in such factories
were responsible for the devel-
opment of lead poisoning.
因為這一題我本來也考慮C選項的正確性, 以上是我歸納出來的錯點....
請指教 !!

[小晃兄]

恩，我後來也發現C的確是錯的，不過原因跟你不一樣，大家可以討論一下。
我認為C選項的WIDC部份沒錯，(因為WIDC也同意SPEW的說法)，錯的是WTUL的部份，WTUL是認為規定不會被修得 更嚴(如文章藍字第2部份)而不是如選項所說修再嚴都沒用。

E選項的對因如藍字第一部份。

<原文>
WIDC: because safety regulations were generally not being enforced in white lead factories, where there were no unions (and little prospect of any) to pressure employers to comply with safety regulations.

我支持C
藍字第二部分並沒有提到WTUL認為規定不會被修的更嚴
它說的是，缺乏工會的約束，工廠雇主根本不會遵守規定。也就是有規定沒用，訂得再嚴也沒用。

[小晃兄]

evelight 可不可以說一下如何刪去E

[evelight]

重看一次，現在覺得E也對
WIDC在1892成立
而WTUL在1880年代末期就停止對婦女工作權的抗爭
挺直接了當的

如果C真的錯
大概是錯在它可能過度推論 (相較起E的直接了當)

[dibert8]

I. proposal
II. WIDC-- oppose: women’s work opportunities
III. SPEW-- oppose: factory workoing condition, enforce reglations
IV. WTUL-- support: regulations not enforced, no unions to pressure employers

Q36 information 題
(A) WIDC 無關於 regulations; WTUL: regulations 不能有效執行(無關於加強不加強)
(B) WIDC 無關於 unions; WTUL 部份對了
(C) WIDC 無關於 controlling conditions; WTUL 無關於 factories
(D) WIDC 無關於 health conditions; WTUL 無關於 working conditions
(E) WIDC @ 1892 之後, WTUL 反對限制 women’s labor @ late 1880 之前, proposal @ 1895, 所以當 WIDC 以 women’s labor 反對 proposal 時 (1895 之後), WTUL 已不反對限制 women’s labor.
=> (E)

這題C真的很迷人~~
E不選因為我覺得Legislative --1895--- 才提出 1880是要怎麼反對!!
可是後來發現重點--- At the time.....
