[問題]GWD13-Q16~Q19

[iamdior]

Q16 to Q19:
In 1675, Louis XIV
established the Parisian
seamstresses’ guild, the first
Line independent all-female guild
(5) created in over 200 years.
Guild members could make
and sell women’s and chil-
dren’s clothing, but were
prohibited from producing
(10) men’s clothing or dresses
for court women. Tailors
resented the ascension of
seamstresses to guild status;
seamstresses, meanwhile,
(15) were impatient with the
remaining restrictions on
their right to clothe women.
The conflict between
the guilds was not purely
(20) economic, however. A 1675
police report indicated that
since so many seamstresses
were already working illegally,
the tailors were unlikely to
(25) suffer additional economic
damage because of the
seamstresses’ incorporation.
Moreover, guild membership
held very different meanings
(30) for tailors and seamstresses.
To the tailors, their status as
guild members overlapped
with their role as heads of
household, and entitled them
(35) to employ as seamstresses
female family members who
did not marry outside the trade.
The seamstresses, however,
viewed guild membership as
(40) a mark of independence from
the patriarchal family. Their
guild was composed not of
family units but of individual
women who enjoyed unusual
(45) legal and economic privileges.
At the conflict’s center was
the issue of whether tailors’
female relatives should be
identified as family members
(50) protected by the tailors’ guild
or as individuals under the
jurisdiction of the seam-
stresses’ guild.

B A--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q19:
The author mentions the seamstresses’ view of guild membership as a “mark of independence from the patriarchal family” (lines 40-41) primarily in order to

A. emphasize that the establishment of the seamstresses’ guild had implications that were not solely economic
B. illustrate the conflict that existed between tailors and their female family members over membership in the tailors’ guild
C. imply that the establishment of the seamstresses’ guild ushered in a period of increased economic and social freedom for women in France
D. provide an explanation for the dramatic increase in the number of women working as seamstresses after 1675
E. indicate that members of the seamstresses’ guild were financially more successful than were tailors’ female relatives protected by the tailors’ guild

請問這題該如何找答案
怎樣可以想到A呢?
Economic在第二段第一句 和40行差了好遠~~

謝謝謝謝

沒人回答這題，試著幫忙一下

B衝突點不應該是發生在tailor's guild
C語氣真的是太強了
D無關
E只講到一半，沒提到unusual legal

其實從line18開始,就一直描述這個概念...
建議以整段落來看,而不是僅看上下句而已,容易產生見樹不見林的現象!!

我懷疑這篇有魔咒 ,我每次要回這篇就當機,今天已經當第四次了!

謝謝謝謝

in order to 的句子/例子作用題的應答方式就是瞻前顧後
其實同樣都再第二段,就OG的題型而言距離不算遠.
段落的主題句立場非常清楚,例子結束之後,文章的結構又與段落的主題句呼應
幫你上了色標,這樣應該可以很清楚作答了 ,請您再試試看.

Q19:
The author mentions the seamstresses’ view of guild membership as a “mark of independence from the patriarchal family” (lines 40-41) primarily in order to

A. emphasize that the establishment of the seamstresses’ guild had implications that were not solely economic
B. illustrate the conflict that existed between tailors and their female family members over membership in the tailors’ guild
C. imply that the establishment of the seamstresses’ guild ushered in a period of increased economic and social freedom for women in France
D. provide an explanation for the dramatic increase in the number of women working as seamstresses after 1675 沒提到
E. indicate that members of the seamstresses’ guild were financially more successful than were tailors’ female relatives protected by the tailors’ guild 這也沒說到 ....

看來是 A.C 決選，我之前選C但是研究後發現C有個致命的錯誤。
C. imply that the establishment of the seamstresses’ guild ushered in a period of increased economic and social freedom for women in France

如果這邊是說seamstress women in France就很尷尬了，很難選
但是文章沒說到seamstress' guild對其它women(非女紡織工)造成社會上和經濟上的自由，有也是對女紡織工的影響。

所以A給他選下去吧.....題目真的要看仔細阿...ets很賊

Q18
It can be inffered from the passage that which of the following was true of seamstresses employed by relatives who were members of the tailor's guild?
(A)They were instrumental in convincing Louis XIV to establish the seastresses guild.
(B)they were rearly allowed to assist master tailors in the production of men's clothing.
(C)They were considered by some tailors to be a threat to the tailors' monopoly.
(D)They did ot enjoy the same economic and legal privileges that members of the seamstresses' guild enjoyed.
(E)They felt their status as working women gave them a certain degree of independence from the partriarchal family.

答案(D),但我怎麼也想不懂~
雖然44~45行有提到,但好像也不是D的意思吧?

[汪汪北鼻]

The seamstresses, however,
viewed guild membership as
(40) a mark of independence from
the patriarchal family. Their
guild was composed not of
family units but of individual
women who enjoyed unusual
(45) legal and economic privileges.


Guild 的成員享有unusual
(45) legal and economic privileges

換言之，不是Guild的成員應該就無法享有unusual
(45) legal and economic privileges

泥可以參考一下14~17行,
我個人素覺得這個問題跟tailors一點關係都沒有..
文章的impatient應可以跟dissatisfication拉上關係..
這素小的個人找答案的方式啦..
再討論...

Dear all,

To the tailors, their status as
guild members overlapped
with their role as heads of
household, and entitled them
(35) to employ as seamstresses
female family members who
did not marry outside the trade.

對裁縫師而言，其於工會中的角色與其家長的角色重複(如同家長一樣??)，使他們可以雇用女性家庭成員(who did not marry outside the trade??)擔任縫紉工。

文中29-37，說明guild membership對tailors的意義，小弟嘗試翻譯，但對最後的trade該如何解釋??謝謝！

我是這樣翻的
對男裁縫來說, 他們在行會成員的地位與其家長的角色重疊,

他們可以雇用其沒有與其他行業結婚的女性家庭成員做缝紉工.

也就是付予男裁縫權利去雇用他們想要雇用的人

大家再討論吧!

我的看法不是這樣，
C選項的語意顛倒
imply that the establishment of the seamstresses’ guild (which is)ushered in a period of increased economic and social freedom for women in France

C語意是說，工會的建立，是因為(usher)法國婦女經濟水平以及自由權的上升。我覺得這裡說的法國並沒有問題，因為段落第一句話就說Parisian seamstress，Parisian指的就是巴黎。我不選C的原因是語意前後顛倒。
D的話，作者並沒有提到女裁縫師的人數增加，只有說由於工會的成立，使得女性的經濟以及社會地位提升。

The primary purpose of the passage is to



Aoutline a scholarly debate over the impact of the Parisian seamstresses’ guild
Bsummarize sources of conflict between the newly created Parisian seamstresses’ guild and the tailors’ guild

Cdescribe opposing views concerning the origins of the Parisian seamstresses’ guild

Dexplore the underlying reasons for establishing an exclusively female guild in seventeenth-century Paris

Ecorrect a misconception about changes in seamstresses’ economic status that took place in Paris in the late seventeenth century

B選項為啥要用newly呢？我當初就是這個字，所以撇掉不選~~
有人可以幫忙回答一下嗎？

Q18
It can be inffered from the passage that which of the following was true of seamstresses employed by relatives who were members of the tailor's guild?

(D)They did ot enjoy the same economic and legal privileges that members of the seamstresses' guild enjoyed.

從紅線部份可看出題目要問的是L.31-L.37那裡的那裡的seamstresses，
這是一群沒嫁到外頭才被雇用的人。
看回L.38-L.45，這裡的seamstresses把她們的會員身分看成是一種脫離父權的註記。相較於因沒嫁掉而被長輩
介紹工作的前者，後者比較能享受那種經濟和法律上的特權。

這篇是在說1675年的事,報告分析是在1675年,而Parisian seamstresses'guild也是在1675年成立
