问题     From 1910 to 1913, women suffragists in the United States organized annual parades— activity traditionally conducted by men to proclaim solidarity in some cause—not only as a public expression of suffragist solidarity but also a conscious transgression of the rules of social order: women’s very presence in the streets challenged traditional notions of femininity and restrictions on women’s conduct. While recognizing the parade’s rhetorical force as a vehicle for social change, scholars have recently begun to examine its drawbacks as a form of protest. Lumsden characterizes the American suffrage parade as a “double-edged sword”, arguing that women’s efforts to proclaim their solidarity left them open to patronizing commentary from press and public and to organized opposition from antisuffragists.
It can be inferred from the passage that men’s and women’s parades were similar in that both

选项 A、were employed as rhetorical vehicles for social change
B、were regarded as violating contemporary standards of public decorum
C、made participants vulnerable to organized opposition
D、were largely ineffective as forms of protest
E、were intended by their participants as public declarations of solidarity

答案E

解析 本题考查男性游行和女性游行的共同点,定位到第。句,可知两种游行都可以宣扬团结,因此选项E正确。
