In the mid-1970’s, historians often debated the motives of the American Revolutionaries. For neo-Progressive scholars, the Revolution was rooted in the experience of social inequity and in a democratic striving against privilege. These scholars focused less frequently on great men of the Revolution than on ordinary people—farmers, artisans, and laborers—and marginalized groups. Conversely, neo-Whig scholars believed that republican political ideas determined the actions of the Revolutionaries. Their Revolution followed from the shared belief that powerful men had always sought, and would always seek, to deprive their fellow citizens of liberty and property. Ironically, in the conservative act of defending their own liberties and estates, the decidedly elitist gentlemen who articulated revolutionary ideals also liberated egalitarian impulses that would produce a democratic society。


1. According to the neo-Whig scholars as described in the passage, they believe in which of the following were motives for the American Revolution?
A The desire of elitist gentlemen to defend their inequity
B. The desire to thwart the actions of powerful men.
C. The desire to create an egalitarian society.


2. The author of the passage would most likely agree with which of the following statements?
A. The neo-Whig scholars suggested that powerful men reorganized the impact the American Revolution would have on ordinary people.
B. The motivations behind the American Revolution were politically conservative for the most part.
C. the neo-Progressive scholars underestimated the extent to which powerful men benefited from the American Revolution
D. one result of the American Revolution was a furthering of the goal that the neo-Progressive scholars attributed to the Revolutionaries
E. powerful men ultimately had less influence than marginalized groups did on the direction of the American Revolution.

前几天做过
1错了
2选对了
第二题  第二题的D项说得尼玛太饶了
D: 美国革命最后实现的 neo-Progressive scholars 所以为的goal

neo-Progressive scholars所以为的这个goal文章没有明显说
但是第一句有个motive 然后第二局就说了 For neo-Progressive scholars, the Revolution was rooted in the experience of social inequity and in a democratic striving against privilege.

再对应到最后一句also liberated egalitarian impulses that would produce a democratic society。（这是作者自己的看法）

整个文章
开始在讲neo-Progressive scholars认为美国革命的 来源 动机 主力军 在于ordinary people想要打破社会不公平 建立民主社会。（出发点:民主自由 发起人：老百姓
后来Conversely转折：neo-Whig scholars 认为美国革命的 来源 动机 主力军 在于 那些 great men
共和党的思想操纵的这些大众革命者。（又来骂政府了）所以这场革命的道路就沿着一个共同的指导思想
这个指导思想就是：powerful men 必须永远一定剥削老百姓的自由民主（这是conservative act
（出发点：不民主不自由 发起人：政府

然后 Ironically 开始缓和上面的强烈对比关系了
然而通过这种保守主义的做法，那些贵族从保护自己自由财产的角度出发
反而却刺激了社会自由平等民主的社会

注意这两派都是认为美国革命刺激的社会的民主自由 只是各自动机不一样

第一个我觉得答案错了把 实在想不通为什么选B 求大神

我猜啊…虽然第一题我也错了

第一题问的是Neo-Whig相信的美国革命的Motive
他们认为有权势的人总是剥削人民，所以这是人们反抗权势要发动美国革命的原因，就是要推翻这些有权势的人，所以B是对的
但是A说的elitist gentlemen to defend their inequity是在最后ironically里面讲的，这并不是Neo-Whig认为的发动革命的动机，剥削才是

第二题，one result 指代的是 Last 句的结果：democratic，对应到 neo-Progressive 的观点

前几天做过
1错了
2选对了

我觉得你们都理解错了题目。
neo-Progressive是注重平民，不注意大人物
neo-Whig认为：共和党的观点才是决定的。！！！共和党以这个思想为指导：有权势的人剥削别人的自由和财产。所以共和党是为了阻止这些有权势的人，而去保护他们自己的自由和财产(!!!保护的是共和党)。
这么理解一切都顺了。
大家看看是不是这么个说法

Their Revolution followed from the shared belief that powerful men had always sought, and would always seek, to deprive their fellow citizens of liberty and property.
革命的原因是害怕大人物剥夺他们的自由和财产，所以第一题是b
