The primary purpose of the passage is to______
It can be inferred from the passage that the 1840 United States census provided a count of which of the following?
选项
A、Women who worked exclusively in the home
B、People engaged in nonfarming occupations
C、People engaged in social movements
D、Women engaged in family-run enterprises
E、Men engaged in agriculture
答案
B
解析
This question asks you to draw a conclusion about the 1840 United States census that is suggested by, rather than explicitly stated in, the passage. Choice B is the best answer. Lines 5-15 indicate that in the 1840 United States census, individuals were classified by occupational categories. It can be inferred from this information that the 1840 census provided a count of persons in occupations other than farming. Choice A is incorrect: lines 19-29 suggest that the number of women who worked exclusively in the home could not have been determined from United States census data before 1890, since the 1890 census was the first in which overlap between women who worked outside the home and women who worked in the home was determined. Choice C is incorrect: although lines 16-19 state that changes to the 1850 census were made partly in response to the antislavery and women’ rights movement, there is no indication in the passage that any nineteenth-century census collected information about persons’ participation in social movements. Choices D and E are incorrect. Lines 19-20 indicate that the 1870 United State census was the first in which occupational information was analyzed by gender. From this information it is possible to infer that no United States census prior to 1870 could have provided a count either of women engaged in family-run enterprises or of men engaged in agriculture.
