文章:

    In its 1903 decision in the case of Lone Wolf v. Hitchcock, the United States Supreme Court rejected the efforts of three Native American tribes to prevent the opening of tribal lands to non-Indian settlement without tribal consent. In his study of the Lone Wolf case, Blue Clark properly emphasizes the Court's assertion of a virtually unlimited unilateral power of Congress (the House of Representatives and the Senate) over Native American affairs. But he fails to note the decision's more far-reaching impact: shortly after Lone Wolf, the federal government totally abandoned negotiation and execution of formal written agreements with Indian tribes as a prerequisite for the implementation of federal Indian policy. Many commentators believe that this change had already occurred in 1871 when— following a dispute between the House and the Senate over which chamber should enjoy primacy in Indian affairs—Congress abolished the making of treaties with Native American tribes. But in reality the federal government continued to negotiate formal tribal agreements past the turn of the century, treating these documents not as treaties with sovereign nations requiring ratification by the Senate but simply as legislation to be passed by both houses of Congress. The Lone Wolf decision ended this era of formal negotiation and finally did away with what had increasingly become the empty formality of obtaining tribal consent.

题目:

A、point out that this episode in Native American history has received inadequate attention from scholars

D、refute the argument of commentators who regard the congressional action of 1871 as the end of the era of formal negotiation between the federal government and Native American tribes

答案:

提问:

1)         错选C,曾犹豫过D,杀掉D是因为选项中说的sometimes跟土著人去negotiate,但原文中L29-30说的是government continued to negotiate formal tribal agreements,所以不是sometimes,结果就杀了正确选项。请老师帮我解答一下这两个选项的差异。 这道题行文逻辑让我想起OG上那个经典的水权的题。太绕。哎,依然是被绕进去了。开始都读的挺6的,(对应刷题班套题GWD Verbal008 Q10)到L20开始,涉及到几个角色和名词,就蒙了,完全扰乱了自己对于文章的逻辑理解。应该说L20-L25的出现,(house congress senate 和 chamber等等角色一起)让我瞬间混乱掉对整篇文章的理解。请老师解惑。这种题在没有读懂意思的情况下怎么把逻辑链拎出来做对题。谢谢

提问:

徐老师能带我们读一遍么。。。当时我是每句大概能看懂,但是串起来就觉得文章不知所云了 老师边带读时能看看我的理解到位不么 T.T 第一句:法庭有一法案出来防止对非indian 人开放土地,在没得到部落同意下 第二句:研究这个法案后发现法庭有无限权力 第三句:这个决定意义更深刻:法庭在这个法案后根本都不跟人们商量了 第四局:很多人认为这个不跟人们商量的情况在1871就开始出现了 后面两句读不懂了.... 感觉读完是不是第一句说的案件只是一个引子?而文章主要在讲法庭权力,跟不跟人们商量这个问题? 然后看题....感觉是细节题。。。先在第一句找到了Lone Wolf Case , 往下看到第二句做,然后就没有然后了....选不出来...
