The massive influx of women cyclists—making up at least a third of the total market— was perhaps the most striking and profound social consequence of the mid-1890s cycling boom. Although the new, improved bicycle had appealed immediately to a few privileged women, its impact would have been modest had it not attracted a greater cross section of the female population. It soon became apparent that many of these pioneer women bicyclists had not taken up the sport as an idle pastime. Rather, they saw cycling as a noble cause to be promoted among all women as a means to improve the general female condition. Not only would cycling encourage healthy outdoor exercise, they reasoned, it would also hasten long-overdue dress reform. To feminists, the bicycle affirmed nothing less than the dignity and equality of women. [br] Which of the following does the passage suggest about pioneer women cyclists?
选项
A、They saw cycling as a means to promote the advancement of women.
B、They argued that cycling would encourage women to get involved in a variety of noble causes.
C、They provided several reasons for a cross section of the female population to use the bicycle.
答案
A,C
解析
Choices A and C are correct. The question asks what the passage suggests about pioneer women cyclists.
Choice A is correct: The passage states that pioneer women cyclists saw cycling "as a means to improve the general female condition" and believed that it "affirmed nothing less than the dignity and equality of women."
Choice B is incorrect: The passage states that bicycle pioneers saw cycling itself as a noble cause but does not mention any other noble causes to which cycling would lead.
Choice C is correct. The passage mentions that pioneer women cyclists saw at least two independent reasons for all women to use bicycles: they believed that cycling would "encourage healthy outdoor exercise" as well as "hasten long-overdue dress reform."
