问题 According to the passage, job segregation by sex in the United States was______ [br] Which of the following best describes the relationship of the final paragraph to the passage as a whole?
选项 A、The central idea is reinforced by the citation of evidence drawn from twentieth-century history.
B、The central idea is restated in such a way as to form a transition to a new topic for discussion.
C、The central idea is restated and juxtaposed with evidence that might appear to contradic it.
D、A partial exception to the generalizations of the central idea is dismissed as unimportant.
E、Recent history is cited to suggest that the central idea’s validity is gradually diminishing.
答案 A
解析 The best answer is A. To answer this question you must identify the central idea of the passage so as to determine the relationship of the content of the last paragraph to that idea. The central idea is introduced in lines 10-12 of the first paragraph: “not even industrial wage labor has escaped continued sex segregation in the workplace.” The second paragraph goes on to discuss the origins of sex segregation in the industrialized workforce. The author begins the last paragraph by mentioning the persistence of sex segregation and goes on to describe such segregation in industry during and after the Second World War. Choice B is incorrect because the last paragraph focuses on the topic under discussion and does not introduce any new and different topic. Choices C, D, and E can be eliminated because the last paragraph cites evidence to support the central idea rather than to challenge it.
