GRE阅读题目解析:十九世纪女性旅行作品

  P4

  1

  Writing about nineteenth-century women’s travel writing, Lila Harper notes that the four women she discussed used their own names, in contrast with the nineteenth-century female novelists who either published anonymously or used male pseudonyms.

  在关于十九世纪女性旅行作品的写作中,L H 注意到她笔下的四位女性使用了本名,不同于其他十九世纪女性小说家,匿名或用男性化名出版作品。

  2

  The novelists doubtless realized that they were breaking boundaries, whereas three of the four daring, solitary travelers espoused traditional values, eschewing radicalism and women’s movements.

  这四位小说家无疑意识到她们(作品署本名的行为)出格了,因为其中三位独自上路的旅行者支持传统价值,回避激进主义及妇女运动。

  3

  Whereas the female novelists criticized their society, the female travelers seemed content to leave society as it was while accomplishing their own liberation.

  尽管这些女性小说家批判她们所处的社会,但这些女性旅行者似乎甘愿离开社会,正如她们最终获得自由。

  4

  In other words, they lived a contradiction.

  换言之,她们活在矛盾之中。

  5

  For the subjects of Harper’s study, solitude in both the private and public spheres prevailed — a solitude that conferred authority, hitherto a male prerogative, but that also precluded any collective action or female solidarity.

  对于 H 研究的对象,在私人生活和公共空间单独行动成了主流选择 —— 这种单独行动赋予她们权威,在当时这是男人的特权,但这也排除了任何集体活动或女性联合。

  1. Which of the following best characterizes the “contradiction” that the author refers to?

  A. The subjects of Harper’s study enjoyed solitude, and yet as travelers they were often among people.

  B. Nineteenth-century travel writers used their own names, but nineteenth-century novelists used pseudonyms.

  C. Women’s movements in the nineteenth-century were not very radical in comparison with those of the twentieth-century.

  D. Nineteenth-century female novelists thought they were breaking boundaries, but it was the nineteenth-century women who traveled alone who were really doing so.

  E. While traveling alone in the nineteenth-century was considered a radical act for a woman, the nineteenth-century solitary female travelers generally held conventional views.

  选 E

  屡一屡文章逻辑。

  L H 研究十九世纪女性旅行小说的作者,其中有四个比较特别,别人用男名或匿名出版,她们用真名,这不符合当时的主流,另外她们旅行都是独自一人上路,这也不符合当时女性的行为主流,只有男人才能独自上路。

  当你认为这几位老姐姐特立独行,却发现她们都支持传统价值,远离女性运动。

  所以作者说,她们活在矛盾中。

  E 正确。

  A 错在 often among people,我们知道她们都是独自旅行的。是不是 enjoy 也存疑。

  B 错。定位句 1,容易排除。

  C 未知信息。文中既没说妇女运动有多 radical,也没有跟二十世纪做比较。

  D 十九世纪的女性小说作者觉得自己出格了,但十九世纪那些独自旅行的女人才真是出格了。没人选这个吧?快,告诉我你没有。

  Consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply.

  2. According to the passage, solitude had which of the following effects for the nineteenth century female travelers?

  A. It conferred an authority typically enjoyed only by men.

  B. It prevented formation of alliances with other women.

  C. It relieved peer pressure to conform to traditional values.

  选 AB

  根据在句 5:

  For the subjects of Harper’s study, solitude in both the private and public spheres prevailed — a solitude that conferred authority, hitherto a male prerogative, but that also precluded any collective action or female solidarity.

  C 看起来非常像真的,它缓解了必须遵从传统价值的,来自周围人的压力。但是文章从来没说过此观点,不选。
