求问kmf101中的一道阅读题

Recent studies of the gender gap in the history of United States policies tend to focus on candidate choice rather than on registration and turnout. This shift in focus from gender inequality in political participation may be due to the finding in several studies of voting behavior in the United States that since 1980, differences in rates of registration and voting between men and women are not statistically significant after controlling for traditional predictors of participation. However, Fullerton and Stern argue that researchers have overlooked the substantial gender gap in registration and voting in the South. While the gender gap in participation virtually disappeared outside the South by the 1950s, substantial gender differences persisted in the South throughout the 1950s and 1960s, only beginning to decline in 1970s.

2. According to the passage, which of the following is true about recent studies of the gender gap in the United States politics?  

A. They accurately depict voter preference in the South prior to 1980.
B. They have been unduly influenced by changes in voter preferences.
C. They fail to recognize important factors affecting levels of voter participation.
D. They do not pay sufficient attention to the effect regional differences have on voter preference.
E. They are more concerned with the choices that male and female voters make than with the frequency with which they vote.

这题我选了D，答案是E，不是很理解原因

文中shift是指从registration and turnout到candidate choice，这是两个内容

D中忽视的是 voter preference，原文However句忽视的是registration and voting，对象错了
E就是第一二句同义改写shift的内容

我的理解是这样的，看看能不能帮到你

however前，男女在“RATE of registration and voting ”的差距在缩小；however后强调的是男女在“registration and voting”的次数上的差距被忽略，即“frequency of registration and voting”

现在对于美国历史的研究的学者们把他们的关注重点放在了候选人得票的差异上，而不是注册和投票的人数上面。他们的这种研究重点从性别不平等方面的转移可能是由于从1980年开始的几项投票行为的研究结果，如果考虑了传统的参选预测的话总的注册投票者中男女投票者的比例在统计学上没有多大的差别了。但是，Fullerton and Stern认为学者们忽视了美国南部州中投票者男女比例的巨大差别。虽然1950 年代后除了南部州以外的选区中男女投票者的比例基本上没有差别，南部州中在1950 年代男女投票者的比例还是持续的有很大的差别的，这种差别直到1970 年代才开始下降。

选项E 其实就是第一句话的同意转述

因为regional differences选了D，不是说没考虑南方吗？

首先明确一点，本文研究的是“gender gap in candidate choice” 和 “gender gap in registration and turnout”这两个东西。However之后是说:在the South,"gender gap in registration and voting"与其他地方不同。所以D选项错，因为应该是忽略了“gender gap in registration and turnour/voting”的地区差异，而非that of voter preference(显然，voter preference是candidate choice的同义替换).
