这篇觉得特别难，6道题竟然只对了一道TT，望各位大牛们能帮帮我。。。
           Two works published in 1984 demonstrate
       contrasting approaches to writing the history of
       United States women. Buel and Buel's biography of
       Mary Fish (1736-1818) makes little effort to place
(5)  her story in the context of recent historiography on
       women. Lebsock, meanwhile, attempts not only to
       write the history of women in one southern
       community, but also to redirect two decades of
       historiographical debate as to whether women
(10) gained or lost status in the nineteenth century as
       compared with the eighteenth century. Although
       both books offer the reader the opportunity to
       assess this controversy regarding women's status,
       only Lebsock's deals with it directly. She examines
(15) several different aspects of women's status, helping
       to refine and resolve the issues. She concludes that
       while women gained autonomy in some areas,  
       especially in the private sphere, they lost it in many  
       aspects of the economic sphere. More importantly,
(20) she shows that the debate itself depends on frame
       of reference: in many respects, women lost power
       in relation to men, for example, as certain jobs
       (delivering babies, supervising schools) were taken
       over by men. Yet women also gained power in
(25) comparison with their previous status, owning a
       higher proportion of real estate, for example. In
       contrast, Buel and Buel's biography provides ample
       raw material for questioning the myth, fostered by
       some historians, of a colonial golden age in the
(30) eighteenth century but does not give the reader
       much guidance in analyzing the controversy over
       women's status.

嗯，正确答案是76：D。这个应该没有问题吧，文中的第一句话就指明了使说两个作者的works.
77：E。这里面有一个小陷阱：More importantly,
(20) she shows that the debate itself depends on frame
      of reference: in many respects, women lost power
      in relation to men, for example, as certain jobs
      (delivering babies, supervising schools) were taken
      over by men. 这个是原文。其中有一个词叫做：for example，但是它的位置变成了插入语造成人们对它的忽视，其实我们可以把它放在冒号的后面，说明后面的是用来illustrate冒号前面的，那前面就说的是depends on frame of reference，依赖特定的refernce，所以说呢与E中的particular是同义词改写。
78：B。 More importantly,
(20) she shows that the debate itself depends on frame
      of reference: in many respects, women lost power
      in relation to men, for example, as certain jobs
      (delivering babies, supervising schools) were taken
      over by men. 这就是做着觉得L这个人写的好的特别之处。
79：D。Buel and Buel's biography of
      Mary Fish (1736-1818) makes little effort to place        B是little effort。
(5)  her story in the context of recent historiography on
      women. Lebsock, meanwhile, attempts not only to
      write the history of women in one southern
      community, but also to redirect two decades of          L还比较了两个centuries的。
      historiographical debate as to whether women
(10) gained or lost status in the nineteenth century as
      compared with the eighteenth century.
80：C。She concludes that
      while women gained autonomy in some areas,  
      especially in the private sphere, they lost it in many  
      aspects of the economic sphere.                                 
19世纪的女人在private sphere 牛了，在economic sphere上歇了。
81：C。又有一个小陷阱。 Buel and Buel's biography provides ample
      raw material for questioning the myth, fostered by
      some historians, of a colonial golden age in the
(30) eighteenth century  文中说啊，B提供了大量的原始资料来质疑一个很多历史学家创造的神话，那就是18世纪的colonial 黄金时代。C答案说The colonial era was not as favorable for women as some historians have believe。这不正好和原文一直吗.
应该就是这样啦
