问题 The author indicates explicitly that which of the following records has been a source of information in her investigation?
In the passage, the author anticipates which of the following as a possible objection to her argument?
选项 A、It is uncertain how many people actually migrated during the Great Migration.
B、The eventual economic status of the Great Migration migrants has not been adequately traced.
C、It is not likely that people with steady jobs would have reason to move to another area of the country.
D、It is not true that the term “manufacturing and mechanical pursuits” actually encompasses the entire industrial sector.
E、Of the Black workers living in southern cities, only those in a small number of trades were threatened by obsolescence.
答案C
解析 C is the best answer. To answer this question, you must first identify the author’s argument. The author argues that it is possible that Black migrants to the North were living and working in urban areas of the South rather in rural areas, as researchers had previously assumed. In lines 44-48, the author states that it may be “surprising” that an employed population would relocate. Thus, the author anticipates an objection to her argument on the grounds that Black urban workers in the South would have been unlikely to leave an economically secure existence. She meets that objection by stating that “an explanation lies in the labor conditions then prevalent in the South” (lines 46-48), and discusses the low wages that may have motivated Black workers to migrate north for higher pay.
