Simone de Beauvoir’s work greatly influenced Betty Friedan’s--indeed, made it possible. Why, then, was it Friedan who became the prophet of women’s emancipation in the United States? Political conditions, as well as a certain anti-intellectual bias, prepared Americans and the American media to better receive Friedan’s deradicalized and highly pragmatic The Feminine Mystique, published in 1963, than Beauvoir’s theoretical reading of women’s situation in The Second Sex. In I953 when The Second Sex first appeared in translation in the United States, the country had entered the silent, fearful fortress of the anticommunist McCarthy years (1950--1954), and Beauvoir was suspected of Marxist sympathies. Even The Nation, a generally liberal magazine, warned its readers against "certain political leanings" of the author. Open acknowledgement of the existence of women’s oppression was too radical for the United States in the fifties, and Beauvoir’s conclusion, that change in women’s economic condition, though insufficient by itself, "remains time basic factor" in improving women’s situation, was particularly unacceptable.
Tile author quotes from The Nation most probably in order to ______.
选项
A、modify an earlier assertion
B、point out a possible exception to her argument
C、illustrate her central point
D、clarify the meaning of a term
答案
C
解析
作者引用《民族》杂志的话,很可能是为了说明她的重要观点。作者说,1953年《第二性别》在美国以译文的形式发表,美国进入了沉寂的、令人恐怖的、像古堡一样顽固的、反对共产主义的麦卡锡主义盛行的时期。贝弗有同情马克思主义者的嫌疑。一般认为,比较自由的《民族》杂志警告读者要防范作者的“某些政治倾向”。
