I suspect the myth that math is especially hostile to women arises from the challenge that math poses to anyone. To do mathematics, you must have some protected time to think alone, and you are much better off if you have someone to talk with. Both alone time and quiet conversation have been in short supply for the sex that has traditionally been expected to prepare the food, clean the house, and raise the children—and for most other people as well.

思考题：

According to the text, the author believes that ______

(A) women are particularly susceptible to the challenge of math.

(B) math poses particular challenges to those who lack of alone time.

(C) women are superior to men due to lack of alone and quiet time.

(D) quiet conversation hardly contributes to the study of mathematics.

词汇突破：

myth：迷思，神话

protected time：不受干扰的时间

suspect ：认为

句子解析：

第一句：

I suspect /the myth that math is especially hostile to women arises from the challenge that math poses to anyone.

参考译文：我怀疑那种认为数学特别敌视女人的迷思源于数学对任何人的挑战。

第二句：

To do mathematics, you must have some protected time to think alone, andyou are much better off if you have someone to talk with.

参考译文：要从事数学，你必须有一些不受干扰的时间独自思考，且能与人交谈，才能做得更好。

第三句：

Both alone time and quiet conversation have been in short supply for the sexthat has traditionally been expected to prepare the food, clean the house, and raise the children—and for most other people as well.

参考译文：但独处的时间和安静的对话对于女性尤其难得，传统上人们期望她们准备食物、打扫房子和抚养孩子;对于大多数其他人来说也是如此。

思考题解析：

According to the text, the author believes that _____

根据原文，作者认为_______

(A) women are particularly susceptible to the challenge of math.

(A)女性特别容易受到数学困难的影响。

这是大众的看法，作者是不认同这个观点的。

(B) math poses particular challenges to those who lack of alone time.

(B)数学对那些缺乏独处时间的人提出了特别的挑战。

正确答案。对应第二句;To do mathematics, you must have some protected time to think alone, and you are much better off if you have someone to talk with

要从事数学，你必须有一些不受干扰的时间独自思考，且能与人交谈，才能做得更好。

所以，这就是正话反说，“数学对那些缺乏独处时间的人提出了特别的挑战。”

而且后面的句子也说到了女性之所以不如男性就是因为缺乏不受打搅的时间。

(C) women are superior to men due to lack of alone and quiet time.

(C)由于缺乏独处和安静的时间，女性比男性优越。

错!

你是不是看错单词了!superior 比…强;inferior 不如…

(D) quiet conversation hardly contributes to the study of mathematics.

(D)安静的交谈对学习数学没什么帮助。

错!

你是不是没注意到hardly!这是一个否定!

当然是有帮助的!所以 不对!
