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 suggests that the feminist scholars mentioned in the first sentence distort the meaning of certain nineteenth-century American women’s choices by
选项 A、ascribing those choices to a particular attitude toward marriage
B、ignoring evidence about single women’s motives for becoming writers or professionals
C、overestimating the number of nineteenth-century American women who were single by choice.
答案 A
解析 A．ascribing those choices to a particular attitude toward marriage将她们的选择归因于一个特定的婚姻态度
解析：这里的a particular attitude指的是第一句中提到的对婚姻持批判态度。用这种方法，女权主义学者扭曲了女性选择保持单身的含义。A选项正确。
B．ignoring evidence about single women’s motives for becoming writers or professionals忽略了关于单身女性成为作家或专业人士的动机的证据
解析：本文第二句作者承认单身女性确实会保持独立，因此女权主义学者并没有忽略其证据。不选。
C．overestimating the number of nineteenth-century American women who were single by choice高估了选择单身的十九世纪美国女性的数量
解析：文章没讨论单身女性的数量问题。不选。
