Before the 1870’s trained nurses were virtually unknown in the United States. Hospital nursing was an unskilled occupation, taken up by women of the lower classes, some of whom were enlisted (招募)from the penitentiary (感化院)or the alms house. The movement for reform originated not with doctor, but among upper-class women, who had taken on the role of guardians of a new hygienic(卫生学的)order. Though some doctors approved of the women’s desire to establish a nurses’ training school, which would attract the daughters of the middle class, other medical men were opposed. Plainly threatened by the prospect, they objected that educated nurses would not do as they were told--a remarkable comment on the status anxiety of nineteenth-century physicians. But the women reformers did not depend on the physicians’ approval. When resisted, as they were at Bellevue in efforts to install trained nurses in the maternity wards, they went over the heads of the doctors to men of their own class of greater power and authority. ( Florence Nightingale, who had friends high in the government, had followed exactly the same course in the reforming her country’s military hospitals). Professional nursing, in short, emerged neither from medical discoveries nor from a program of hospital reform initiated by physicians; outsiders saw the need first.
Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
选项
A、Public Hygiene in the United States.
B、Florence Nightingale: a Nurse’s Story.
C、The Fight for Nursing Education in the United States.
D、The Status Anxieties of Nineteenth-century Physicians.
答案
C
解析
主旨题。第三句中“movement”点出文章的主要内容,全文围绕“movement”即C项中的“fight”内容展开,其他选项都太片面。
