阅读理解Section B第二篇

Passage Two

In 2004 and again in 2006, women told pollsters that the concerns that motivated them to decide whether and for whom to vote were centered on nontraditional "women's issues." Women are not single-issue voters, either. 71) ______.In reality, women's voting patterns indicate quite the opposite.

Women are not monolithic in their attitudes about, or votes within, the political system. 72) ______. In the end, women voters ask themselves two core questions when deciding whom to support for president: "Do I like that person?" and "s that person like me?" The first question is the classic "living room" test. The second is a more complex inquiry that probes whether women believe a candidate cares about, values, confronts, and fears the same things they do.

Party loyalty trumps gender, as indicated by a July 2007 Newsweek survey, which found that 88 percent of men and 85 percent of women say that if their party nominated a woman candidate that they would vote for her if she were qualified for the job. 73) ______.Only 60 percent of men and 56 percent of women believe that the country is ready for a woman president. With regard to race, voters are less hesitant to vote for a qualified African-American candidate of their party, as 92 percent of whites and 93 percent of nonwhites say that they would endorse such a candidate. 74) ______.Only 59 percent of white voters and 58 percent of nonwhite voters believe that the country would elect a black president.

Whereas the contest for president is the most wide-open in decades, one thing is certain: 75) ______.

A. The media's focus on the contentious ones makes it seem as if women only care about one issue on Election Day and that it takes special attention to that issue to compel women to vote

B. Traditionally, women are thought to gravitate more toward the "SHE" cluster of issues,

Social Security, health care, and education, while men are considered more interested in the "WE" issues, war and the economy

C. Like gender, fewer voters doubt that the country is ready for an African-American

president

D. Americans express less enthusiasm, however, about the "female factor," when it comes to how they judge their fellow citizens

E. Women, as they have since 1980, will be a majority of the electorate that decides who next occupies the Oval Office

F. When it comes to voting, one woman might vote for all Democrats, another might vote straight-ticket Republican, while a third might take the salad-bar approach to decide her vote。

阅读理解文章大意及参考答案

Passage One

【华慧考博独家解析:文章大意】

文章主要讲了妇女作为选民投票的行为方式和特征。2004和20 06年调查发现,所关注的能够激发他们决定是否把票投给谁,集中于非传统的“妇女问题”。妇女并不是单一的投票者,实际上妇女选举方式暗示着完全相反的事实。妇女在选举态度方面并不是固执己见。最终,妇女要面临两个核心问题。是否喜欢投票的这个人?或者这个人是否喜欢自己?妇女在对女性竞选者的支持力度也不是很大。针对种族问题,女性选民不太情愿投票给政党内有能力胜任的非裔美国人。

【华慧考博独家: 参考答案】

71.A

【解析】根据前后文,出现issue的选项只有A和B。前面讲妇女所关注的并非传统的妇女问题,也不是针对单一事件的投票者,空格后面的句子为转折,说明实际上社会对妇女的投票方式产生了误解,妇女投票不是社会所想的那样,而是相反的做法。所以按照这种推理只有A 选项符合逻辑。B项讲到妇女关注的问题,但是这些问题都是传统的问题,与前面讲到的non-traditional issues,相对立。B不正确。

72.F

【解析】上文讲到了关于妇女的政治倾向的问题,这一空所填的内容应该是妇女的政治态度的看法等问题,符合条件且内容涉及政治方面的只有F选项。

73.D

【解析】根据上下文,上文写了提名妇女作为候选人参加选举,下文列举了男性和女性对女性选举总统的支持度,两者也仅仅在60%左右,甚至女性连自己同伴选举的支持度也不是很高,仅仅56%。可知本题的正确选项为D。

74.C

【解析】以上排出了4个选项,还有C和E两个选项。C选项较为符合,因

为上面提到了妇女针对性别不同竞选的看法和态度,这里又讲了妇女在不同种族的竞选者的态度,C承接性较强。

75.E

【解析】最后一句是对文章的总结,从上述表述可以看出,妇女的支持态度基本起了决定作用,无论对性别还是种族来说都是一样的,妇女的支持率均超过了50%,成为入主白宫的多数决定者。
