如果說是表新舊contrast的文章架構的話
那麼
new scholarship 所反對的就會是long-held view
new scholarship 所主張的就會是和long-held view相反的觀念
所以~

Recent feminist scholarship con-
cerning the United States in the 1920’s
challenges earlier interpretations that
Line assessed the twenties in terms of the
(5) unkept “promises” of the women’s
suffrage movement. This new scholar-
ship disputes the long-held view that
because a women’s voting bloc did not
materialize after women gained the right
(10) to vote in 1920, suffrage failed to
produce long-term political gains for
women. These feminist scholars also
challenge the old view that pronounced
suffrage a failure for not delivering on
(15) the promise that the women’s vote
would bring about moral, corruption-
free governance. Asked whether
women’s suffrage was a failure, these
s cholars cite the words of turn-of-the-
(20) century social reformer Jane Addams,
“Why don’t you ask if suffrage in
general is failing?”

所以~
應該可以明顯看出
old view認為是failure
而new scholarship 是相反的立場=也就是不認為是failure

希望有幫到你^ ^

喔...原來是這樣
:D

現在我瞭解了

kiki 謝謝妳 ;)

Q35:
The passage is primarily concerned with

A. providing evidence indicating that feminist reformers of the 1920’s failed to reach some of their goals
B. presenting scholarship that contrasts suffragist “promises” with the historical realities of the 1920’s
C. discussing recent scholarship concerning the achievements of women’s suffrage during the 1920’s and presenting an alternative view of those achievements
D. outlining recent findings concerning events leading to suffrage for women in the 1920’s and presenting a challenge to those findings
E. providing support for a traditional view of the success of feminist attempts to increase gender consciousness among women during the 1920’s
Answer:
答案是C我選D。由第一段(第六行到第十七行)得到這個結論。但是為什麼選C呢?我看到achievement就把C選項排除了

Q36:
It can be inferred that the author of the passage disagrees with the “new scholarship” mentioned in lines 6-7 regarding the

A. degree to which the “promises” of the suffrage movement remained unkept
B. degree to which suffrage for women improved the morality of governance
C. degree to which the 1920’s represented a period of decline for the feminist movement
D. degree of legislative success achieved by feminist reformers during the 1920’s
E. accuracy of the view that a women’s voting bloc did not materialize once suffrage was achieved
答案是C。我選不出來，因為我看不到author的disagreement，我覺得這�只有在陳述new scholarship的意見。

Q37:
The purpose of the second paragraph (lines 23-31) of the passage is to

A. suggest a reason why suffragist “promises” were not kept
B. contrast suffragist “promises” with the reality of the 1920’s
C. deplore the lack of successful feminist reform in 1920’s
D. explain a view held by feminist scholars
E. answer the question asked by Jane Addams
答案是D。我接受，但是C哪里不好呢?是”deplore”這個負面字出問題嗎?

這一篇我覺得文章容易，但問題都好難選，一個頭兩個大...怎麼辦~~

liwuu:我不太懂為什麼你看到achievement就將此選項排除.文章如同答案C,兩派人士針對1920年代有關婦女suffrage的achievement做不同的解讀!!
個人認為D答案沒有touch到文章的最後一段!!

Q36:

答案是C。我選不出來，因為我看不到author的disagreement，我覺得這�只有在陳述new scholarship的意見。

liwuu:這一題是推論作者可能不同意new scholarship所提的論點之處.同樣地,從作者寫出最後一段的內容可以看出,作者認為在1920年代並沒有如同new scholarship所述那麼糟!!

E. answer the question asked by Jane Addams
答案是D。我接受，但是C哪里不好呢?是”deplore”這個負面字出問題嗎?

liwuu:我不知道所謂"負面字"的觀念,我喜歡站在本身即作者的立場來想像,若我是作者,我寫第二段的 目的是用來解釋補充第一段所談到的東西,並不是用來deplore the lack of successful feminist reform in 1920's,甚且回到上一題,我本身的立場並沒有覺得該reform有那麼不成功!!

這一篇我覺得文章容易，但問題都好難選，一個頭兩個大...怎麼辦~~

[clelia]

謝謝liwuu好心人,
我再好好仔細想一想。

要考了很緊張。
覺得GWD的文章跟OG差滿多的。
文章簡單可是題目都又長又難選。><不像OG一眼就可以看到答案。

clelia:我把achievement排除了的原因，是因為第一段說明new scholarship 反對(推翻)以前的說法，以前的說法認為:1920's women's suffrage 是失敗的。所以隱含的意思：new scholarship不認為 1920s women's suffrage是完全失敗的，更甚者，是1920's suffrage本身就是一個失敗。不管如何，這些都在談論failures 而不是achievement!

我同意，謝謝。沒有想到要從作者表達意見的段落找，單從該句去找。
謝謝。一語驚醒夢中人。^^

了解你的意思.我想答案中的achievement並不是指1920's women suffrage成功,而是指對於"1920's women suffrage achievement(成就)"這件事的看法!!
意即文章不同的學者針對"1920's women suffrage achievement"的看法,有人認為完全失敗,有人認為decline而已,也有人認為是成功的!!

ps.要考試囉,深呼吸...加油!!若有空考前掃一下JJ...祝順利

[clelia]

明白了。呵呵。
我就在懷疑我誤會了achievement這件事。

現在完全明白了，真開心。
看來我這種快速掃過解題法常會在莫名奇妙裡把答案給殺了。
要小心要小心。

謝謝你的祝福及叮嚀。liwuu。^^

我想來簡單整理一下這篇文章的結構
第一段:
新的女性主義學說對1920年代發生的一些事, 有著和普遍想法不同的觀點
他們主要challenge兩點:
1. suffrage=voting, 沒有為女性帶來political gain
2. voting沒有帶來一個moral並且corruption-free的政府
意即, 新的學說認為開放女性voting是有達成以上二點目標

第二段:contrast
然而, 這一個新的學說還是承認1920年代是個女性主義不振的時代,有三個原因
1.cohesiveness下降(團結下降)
2.consciousness下降(性別自覺下降)
3.legislation下降(很少通過對女性有利的法案)
因此, 稍微歸納一下, 這個新的學說認為1920年代雖然女性voting是有幫助的, 但大體上1920是decline的, 也就是P but N

第三段:(contrast)
作者出來表示意見, 認為1920年代仍有achievements, 而非新學說認為1920年代的那麼糟
1.autonomy上升,社會地位提高(女性自治上升)
2.citizenship上升(公民權上升 ex能有辦公室或參加陪審團)

總結一下, 作者認為1920年代並非沒有成就, 只是新的學說和作者自己看的角度不同, 所以會有解釋上的差異, 至於有人說作者有沒有表示態度, 我認為是有的, 第三段要反駁這個新學說的意見, 不是提出另一個學說, 就是作者自己跳進來發表高見, 第三段這裡看不到另一個學說出現, 很明顯, 是作者自己表示態度, 如果還不信, 我們看第#36題就好了, 考的是作者態度題

希望對大家有幫助

[wangdaven]

對了, 其實我覺得這篇很難讀懂, 要一直轉折推敲, 尤其是"unkept promises"該怎麼翻譯 雖然說我們從上下文知道, old view認為女性voting後, 沒有 keep promises, 女性沒有完成爭取投票權時的承諾, 但是new scholarship卻認為, 女性有keep promises, 可是我還是不曉得"unkept promises"在這怎麼翻好? 該說"沒有被達成的承諾"嗎?

我也覺得這篇還滿不好讀通的，要多看幾次(不過...考試...那有時間多看呀...）
而你提的 unkept promises，我覺得照你這樣翻就ok了，很清楚的表達了文章的意思...

題外話，這篇我覺得還有一個地方可以考，不過可能大家覺得很簡單就是了，那就是作者提出"Why don't you ask if suffrage in general is failling?"的目的是什麼？

頂一下
我也不懂
第一段先說new scholar反對之前的人說women suffrage是個failure
可是又接著說
Asked whether women’s suffrage was a failure, these scholars cite the words of turn-of-the- century social reformer Jane Addams,“Why don’t you ask if suffrage in general is failing?”
這樣是什麼意思啊
是說"如果找傳統的那些cretiria去批判 那不如說suffrage整個是個failure 其實women's suffrage還是有一定的長期影響的"嗎
有哪位大人可以指教一下啊

就我的了解,整篇第一段只是在描述新的學者在挑戰討論之前舊的觀點(大部分都是認為女性擁有投票權並非有好的或預期中的結果),卻沒有敘述他們的理由及原因,唯一提到的部份就是再最後一句Asked whether women’s suffrage was a failure, these scholars cite the words of turn-of-the- century social reformer Jane Addams,“Why don’t you ask if suffrage in general is failing?這邊透露了那些新的學者認為婦女擁有投票權並不是一個錯誤.(我覺得這句是在說[問女性有投票權是否錯誤的人]模糊了焦點,與其說讓婦女有投票權是錯誤的,為何不說讓一般人民擁有投票權是錯誤的呢?)
然後第二段就開始轉折
In some ways, however, these scholars still present the 1920’s as a period of decline.......
雖然他們不認為婦女擁有投票權是錯誤的,但是覺得1920年代婦女運動有所停滯跟退步,例如獲得投票權後,婦女運動失去原有的團結之類.....
第三段帶入作者的看法,認為並沒有如那些心學者想的那麼悲觀,其實仍然對婦女運動有所助益.....

[juyu]

補充一下,好像這篇若這樣解釋,可能就比較好選答案..

對於1920年代的婦女投票權：
舊學派是持負面的態度(第一段)
新學派是持負面的態度(第二段)
作者是持正面的態度(第三段)
PS:新舊觀點不同,但是態度一致,差別只在於因新派認為投票權本身就有問題,暗示無關性別 !

[ivy]

可是我認為第一段舊學派並無持負面態度喔!
本篇是在說new反對old
而最後作者還有支持old的意思!
