各位大神好本人刚刷完36套朋友推荐微臣的金皮就买来做了，第一篇中篇阅读第一题就贼苦恼

题目如下：
Late-eighteenth-century English cultural authorities seemingly concurred that women readers should favor history, seen as edifying, than fiction, which was regarded as frivolous and reductive. Readers of Marry Ann Hanway’s novel Andrew Stewart, or the Northern Wanderer, learning that its heroine delights in David Hume’s and Edward Gibbon’s histories, could conclude that she was more virtuous and intelligent than her sister, who disdains such reading. Likewise, while the naïve, novel-addicted protagonist of Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey, Catherine Morland, finds history a chore, the sophisticated, sensible character Eleanor Tilney enjoys it more than she does the Gothic fiction Catherine prefers. Yet in both cases, the praise of history is more double-edged than it might actually appear. Many readers have detected a protofeminist critique of history in Catherine’s protest that she dislikes reading books filled with men “and hardly any women at all.” Hanway, meanwhile, brings a controversial political edge to her heroine’s reading, listing the era’s two most famous religious skeptics among her preferred authors. While Hume’s history was generally seen as being less objectionable than his philosophy, there were widespread doubts about his moral soundness even as a historian by the time that Hanway was writing, and Gibbon’s perceived tendency to celebrate classical paganism sparked controversy from the first appearance of his history of Rome.
　　1. The author’s primary purpose is that
　　A. the evidence used in support of a particular argument is questionable
　　B. a distinction between two genres of writing has been overlooked
　　C. a particular issue is more complex than it might appear
　　D. two apparently different works share common features
　　E. two eighteenth-century authors held significantly different attitudes toward a particular

很容易分析（按陈虎平老师的逻辑）第一句是KWo,yet这句是KWn，问PURPOSE,C选项和Kwn完全照应，而double-edge=questionabe逻辑上也太不收敛了吧，gwc自己给的解释把A选项翻译了一边，然后说这是对的（mmp....）
和陈虎平老师一对比，感觉GWC的讲解是真的好烂！把别人当高中水平，文章给完整翻译，给完翻译再来个文章点拨结果等于又翻译了一遍！然后真的讲的时候一句话带过了...（先吐槽一下）
在寄托求助下，有没有大神讲解一下选A的思考逻辑，谢谢！

求助

A对得很明显啊...

yet之前拿几个作家做引来illustrate一个argument(woman should favor history rather than fiction, 也就是A中所谓的particular argument), yet之后作者本人又提出对这些作家的不同看法(not like that, 也就是questionable). 这里的作家就是所谓的evidence.

没毛病.

你好
但是怎么解释
double-edge= questionable这个问题呢
另外C错在哪里呢我觉得complex可以作为double-edge的上意
（一个东西有两面性必然是更复杂的）
谢谢

你好

原文说的是
the praise of history is more double-edged

你把 double-edged 理解为 complex 并没有问题
但是把 the praise of history 本身当做一个 issue 就有问题了

“whether the praise of history is more double-edged not not” 可以是一个issue，但是主题里面并没有再进一步说这个issue是complex（即表示很难说清楚到底是不是double-edged），而是明确的说明了 the praise of history 就是 double-edged。

以下是 issue 的定义：

a :a matter that is in dispute between two or more parties
b (1) :a vital or unsettled matter 【economic issues】 (2) :concern, problem 【I have issues with his behavior】
c :the point at which an unsettled matter is ready for a decision 【brought the matter to an issue】
