Critical Reading>Select an Answer

As the saffron tints and crimson flushes of mornherald the coming day, so the social and politicaladvancement which woman has already gained bearsthe promise of the rising of the full-orbed sun ofemancipation. The result will be not to make homeless happy, but society more holy; yet I do not think the mere extension of the ballot apanacea for all the ills of our national life. What we need today is not simply more voters, butbetter voters. Today there are red-handed men in our republic, who walk unwhipped of justice, who richly deserve to exchange the ballot of the freeman for the wristlets of the felon; brutaland cowardly men... More than the changing of institutions we need the development of anational conscience, and the upbuilding of national character. Men may boast of thearistocracy of blood, may glory in the aristocracy of talent, and be proud of the aristocracyof wealth, but there is one aristocracy which must ever outrank them all, and that is thearistocracy of character; and it is the women of a country who help to mold its character, andto influence if not determine its destiny; and in the political future of our nation woman will nothave done what she could if she does not endeavor to have our republic stand foremost amongthe nations of the earth, wearing sobriety as a crown and righteousness as a garment and agirdle. In coming into her political estate woman will find a mass of illiteracy to be dispelled. Ifknowledge is power, ignorance is also power. The power that educates wickedness maymanipulate and dash against the pillars of any state when they are undermined andhoneycombed by injustice.

In the passage, the speaker uses imagery associated with a sunrise primarily in orderto ______

A.suggest that women's desire for voting rights is on the verge of being realized.

B.assert that society's historically biased treatment of women has been exposed.

C.illustrate the idea that the struggle for equality for women is only just beginning.

D.imply that men will become more enlightened as women advance socially and politically.

答案:A

解析:

Choice A is the best answer. In these lines, the speaker compares women's previous "social and political advancement" to the "saffron tints and crimson flushes" in the sky that signal the sun will soon rise, and the "full-orbed sun of emancipation" to "the coming day." She is suggesting that the progress that has already occurred will soon be followed by the granting of voting rights and the emancipation they represent, just as the early signs of sunrise are followed by a new day.
