求教一道GRE阅读题
"The emancipation of women ,"James Joyce told one of his friends,"has caused the greatest revolution in our time in the most important relationship there is-----that between men and women."Other modernists agreed:Virginia Woolf,claiming that in about 1910"human character changed,"and,illustrating the new balance between the sexes,urged,"Read the 'Agamennon,'and see whether ...your sympathies are not almost entirely with Clytemnestra."D.H.Lawrence wrote,"Perhaps the deepest fight for 2000 years and more,has been the fight for women's independence."
But if modernist writers considered women's revolt against men's domination one of their "greatest" and "deepest" themes,only recently---in perhaps the past 15 years---has literary criticism begun to catch up with it.Not that the images of sexual antagonism that abound in modern literature have gone unremarked; far from it.But what we are able to see in literary works depends on the perspectives we bring to them,and now that women---enough to make a difference---are reforming canons and interpreting literature,the landscapes of literary history and the features of individual books have begun to change.
The author quetes James Joyce,Virginia Woolf,and D.H.Lawrence primarily in order to show that
A.these were feminist writers
B.although well-meaning,they were ineffectual
C.before the twentieth century,there was little interest in women's literature
D.modern literature is dependent on the women's movement
E the interest in feminist issues is not new
答案选的E,但我觉得D才是对的,因为第二段的开头不是有提到么.
这个前面一整段都提的是这3个人James Joyce认为The emancipation of women has caused the greatest revolution in our time in the most important relationship
其他两个同意(Other modernists agreed)Virginia Woolf说1910年human character changed证明在性别间新的平衡形成,后面大概说了个具体读个什么东西时候的看法不同了,D.H.Lawrence觉得2000年来deepest fight是为了fight for women's independence 这后面一长串说什么新的平衡,以及deepset fight 2000多年,都说这个东西已经好久了,不过这个还不能确定选项
关键是后面,现代作家是否(if)把 女性反对男性主宰社会 作为他们"greatest" and "deepest"主题,直到最近评论家才开始关注.这个就比较明显了,说明前面说这个主题已经存在很久了,但是现在是不是还是这样,应该是在后面讨论了
D说现代文学是依赖于女权运动的...这个怎么也没什么关系吧,整个现代文学应该不是这个文章主要想说的东西,这文章好难,觉得基本看不懂,后面说的什么可能不明白,但是这个题应该是这样的.
