Simone de Beauvoir’s work greatly influenced Betty Friedan’s--indeed, made it possible. Why, then, was it Friedan who became the prophet of women’s emancipation in the United States? Political conditions, as well as a certain anti-intellectual bias, prepared Americans and the American media to better receive Friedan’s deradicalized and highly pragmatic The Feminine Mystique, published in 1963, than Beauvoir’s theoretical reading of women’s situation in The Second Sex. In I953 when The Second Sex first appeared in translation in the United States, the country had entered the silent, fearful fortress of the anticommunist McCarthy years (1950--1954), and Beauvoir was suspected of Marxist sympathies. Even The Nation, a generally liberal magazine, warned its readers against "certain political leanings" of the author. Open acknowledgement of the existence of women’s oppression was too radical for the United States in the fifties, and Beauvoir’s conclusion, that change in women’s economic condition, though insufficient by itself, "remains time basic factor" in improving women’s situation, was particularly unacceptable.
It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following is not a factor in the explanation of why The Feminine Mystique was received more positively in the United States than was The Second Sex?
选项
A、By 1963 political conditions in the United States had changed.
B、Friedan’s book was less intellectual and abstract than Beauvoir’s
C、Readers did not recognize the powerful influence of Beauvoir’s book on Friedan’s ideas.
D、Friedan’s approach to the issue of women’s emancipation was less radical than Beauvior’s.
答案
C
解析
A(1963年美国的政治环境起了变化。)是不言而喻的,因为美国早已摆脱了盛行于1950年至1954年的麦卡锡主义;C(同贝弗的书相比,弗里丹的书不那么理性、不那么抽象。)也提到了,anti-intellectual(反对知识分子的)一词让人想起“不那么理性”;pragmatic(实用的)…词让人想起“不那么抽象”;D(弗里丹对妇女解放运动的探讨没有贝弗那样激进。)也提到了,闲为deradicalized(非激进化)一词使人想起弗里丹没有贝弗那样激进。没有提到C。
