答案C

解析 This question asks you to identify the structure of the first paragraph of the passage. The best answer is C. The first paragraph presents Eisenstein’ theory, then makes note of Tentler’s opposing views, then continues with further explication of Eisenstein’s argument. Choice A can be eliminated because the paragraph discusses a certain historical development, the evolution of working women’s values, but it does not make prediction about future developments. Choice B is not correct because the paragraph is not concerned with contrasting definitions of any term. Choice D and E are not correct because the paragraph does not discuss a tentative proposal that requires evaluation or a controversy that calls for resolution.
