文章：
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 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 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 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, 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 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 eighteenth century but does not give the reader much guidance in analyzing the controversy over women’s status.

提问：
请问Tina老师。原文主旨读出来是对B和L的两个方法做比较。这道题可以定位到原文第三四句：B....eighteenth century和倒数三四句in contrast.....women status. 可以根据倒数几段的文字进行推理，他的结构是：L. in contrast to, B&B ....(1).....but....(2)... 重点应该放在第二句，but之后。我的问题是：B&B没有给出指导，那么L是给出指导的。可是答案的意思是L强调了大量历史问题，那么也就是没有给出指导。请老师解答，谢谢。

提问：
Tina 老师，我错选e ,定位line28-30,是B的特点，in contrast就表示这是不同于L的，所以选e.
Line12-15也提到两者的不同，L deals with it directly。但没有找到对应的选项
