问题 The primary purpose of the passage is to______
The information in the passage suggests that a pre1960’s political historian would have been most likely to undertake which of the following studies?
选项 A、An analysis of voting trends among women voters of the 1920’s
B、A study of male voters’ gradual ideological shift from party politics to issue-oriented politics
C、A biography of an influential nineteenth-century minister of foreign affairs
D、An analysis of narratives written by previously unrecognized women activitists
E、A study of voting trends among naturalized immigrant laborers in a nineteenth-century logging camp
答案C
解析 The best answer is C. The fist sentence of the passage implies that prior to the 1960’s, political historians tended to focus on leaders and institutions. A biography of an influential nineteenth-century minister of foreign affairs thus would have been a typical project for a political historian prior to the 1960’s. Choice A and E are incorrect because the first sentence implies that traditional historians tended not to focus on ordinary citizens. Choices B and D are incorrect for the additional reason that, as the first paragraph makes clear, traditional historians employed techniques that were unsuited for the study of the sorts of activities described in these choices.
