📖 題組:
My wife was one of the many bright and industrious young women of the 1960s who worked their way through college. Somewhere late in her sophomore year, her funds ran low and she inquired at the university about a small loan for books and supplies. She was told that her chance of getting a loan was slim, because university funds were scarce, too, and what resources remained for loans were being given almost exclusively to male students. The only women getting loans at the moment were seniors who were about to graduate. She wasn’t surprised—disappointed, but not surprised. The priorities were well known: male students first, regardless of academic status, and then if there was enough money left, it would go to advanced female students. The university’s loan policy was not unusual; it was just one more expression of an ancient value in the Western tradition. Education for male is practical, but for females, it is luxurious. It is the males, after all, who are destined to hold jobs that require learning; Females—well, a measure of common sense is sufficient for bringing up children.
According to the passage, which of the following statements best describes the distributing policy of university student loans in the 1960s?
  • A Male students and female students had equal chances.
  • B Almost all university student loans were granted to male students.
  • C Universities gave equal chances of financial support to senior students.
  • D All students of lower academic status were not given any university loans.

思路引導 VIP

若重新審視這段文字,請思考:當一個機構明確宣告某個特定群體擁有「絕對優先權 (First Priority)」,且剩餘資源才分給極少數特定條件的對象時,最終這筆資源的「流向大宗」會是誰?這種分配順位反映了什麼樣的群體差距?

答得漂亮!精準掌握文章核心細節

  1. 觀念驗證: 這是一題典型的細節與推論題。文中的關鍵證據在於第一段末尾:"what resources remained for loans were being given almost exclusively to male students"(剩下的貸款資源幾乎排他地給了男學生)。第二段進一步佐證了這項政策的優先順序是「男性優先,不論學業表現」,而女性只有在即將畢業(seniors)且資金充裕時才有機會。因此,選項 (B) 完美對應了當時性別不平等的資源分配實況。
