根据
“The recent studies by Landes, Badinter, Godineau, and Roudinesco, however, should signal a much-needed reassessment of women’s participation.”所在段后半部是解释
接下来的几段是对几个作家看法的描述
最后一段“Each of these scholars has different political agenda and takes a different approach”“Yet, admirably, each gives center stage to a group that previously has been marginalized, or at best undifferentiated, by historians.”
从以上信息可以看出
“Certain recent historical studies have provided a much-needed description and evaluation of the evolving roles of women in the revolutionary events of 1789-1795”最为接近
15(C)
根据“Marie Gouze’s Declaration of the Rights of Women”定位原文
“Typical of their orientation to theoretical issues—in Godineaus’s view, without practical effect—is Marie Gouze’s Declaration of the Right of Women”
“This work had little impact on the world of political action”标红字体同义,不必多说
16(B)
根据“the purpose of the women’s political cubs mentioned in line 20”定位原文
“The emergence of vocal middle-class women’s political clubs marks the second phase. Formed in 1791 as adjuncts of middle-class male political clubs, and originally philanthropic in function, by late 1792 independent clubs of women began to advocate military participation for women.”前后作用明显发生变化,即
“These clubs eventually developed a purpose different from their original purpose”
17(D)
在第14题的分析基础上,不难看出,作者是在陈述并评价recent historical studies,首段主要提供一种背景知识,即常说的“背景式开头”,让读者了解历史事件与发展顺序,供后续讨论
“present a context for the discussion of recent studies of women in France between 1789 and 1795”
18(A)
根据“the women’s movement in France in the 1790s”,“Landes and Badinter”定位原文
“For Landes and Badinter, the necessity of women’s having to speak in the established vocabularies of certain intellectual and political tradition diminished the ability
of the women’s movement to resist suppression”
“But, when women went on to make political alliances with radical Jacobin men, Badinter asserts, they adopted a vocabulary and a violently extremist viewpoint that unfortunately was even more damaging to their political interests”
这两个人反对speak in the eastablished vocabularies,反过来说,如果不采用这种方法,他们认为效果会更好
“The movement might have been more successful if women had developed their own political vocabularies”
19(E)
根据““cost” in line 63”定位原文
“And in the case of Landes and Badinter, the reader is left with a sobering awareness of the cost to the women of the Revolution of speaking in borrowed voices”借用第18题原文推断出speaking in borrowed voices等价于speak in the established vocabularies,那么后果当然是相同的,即第18题标红字体—以失败告终
“collapse of the women’s movement in the 1790s”
20(B)
本题与第14题同义
“summarizing the main points of several recent historical studies and assessing their value”
