问题 Feminist scholars have tended to regard women in the nineteenth-century United States who elected to remain single as champions of women’s autonomy and as critics of marriage as an oppressive institution. Indeed, many nineteenth-century American women who participated in reform movements or who distinguished themselves as writers and professionals were single. Yet this view of single women tends to distort the meaning of their choices. The nineteenth century saw the elevation of marriage for love as a spiritual ideal. Consequently, it became socially acceptable for women not to marry if such an ideal marriage could not be realized with an available suitor. Thus, many women’s choice to remain single reflected not a negative view of marriage but a highly idealistic one. [br] The author of the passage implies that many nineteenth-century American women chose to remain single because they
选项 A、believed that marriage required them to give up much of their autonomy
B、had attitudes toward marriage that were influenced by contemporary reform movements
C、wanted to take advantage of increasing opportunities to distinguish themselves as professionals
D、doubted that their own marriage would live up to their notion of what a marriage ought to be
E、had a negative view of marriage fostered by a change in social attitudes during the nineteenth century
答案 D
解析 根据本文作者的观点，女性认为婚姻是理想化的精神理想，她们之所以保持单身，是因为真爱难觅。这里的“觅真爱”就是她们关于一场婚姻应有的样子的观念。D正确。
