问题     Although Elizabeth Stuart Phelps’ novel Doctor Zay (1882) dominates critical discussion of Phelps’ interest in woman doctors, preceding it were many little-known writings by Phelps. These writings underscored the achievements of already established women doctors, the imperative of medically educating and training women in the face of pernicious resistance, and the medical woman’s symbolic value as an agent of healing in post-Civil War America. An exploration of this largely overlooked early prose demonstrates that Phelps played an instrumental role in legitimizing the American medical woman during a crucial earlier period when the number of women doctors in the United States increased substantially, but the woman doctor remained perhaps the most controversial new presence on the nation’s occupational landscape.
The passage provides information on which of the following?

选项 A、The public response to the emergence of women doctors during Phelps’ lifetime
B、How Phelps’ earlier works advanced the cause of American women doctors
C、The relative fame of Doctor Zay in comparison with Phelps’ other writings

答案A,B,C

解析 A项正确,公众的反应是认为女医生most controversial。B项正确,费尔普斯的早期作品通过合理化女医生来推动女医生的事业,对应play an important role legitimizing the American medical woman。C项正确,《扎伊医生》比其他作品更加出名(第一句的dominate和little-known形成对比)。
