  It is not often realized that women held a high place in southern European societies in the 10th and 11th centuries. As a wife, the woman was protected by the setting up of a dowry (彩禮). Admittedly, the purposeof this was to protect her against the risk of desertion, but in reality its function in the social and family life of the time was much more important. The dowry was the wife’s right to receive a tenth of all her husband’s property. The wife had the right to with hold consent, in all transactions the husband wouldmake, and more than just a right; the documents show that she enjoyed a real power of decision, equal to that of her husband. In no case do the documents indicate any degree of difference in the legal status of husband and wife.

  The wife shared in the management of her husband’s personal property, but the opposite was not always true. Women seemed perfectly prepared to defend their own inheritance against husbands who tried to exceed their rights, and on occasion they showed a fine fighting spirit. A case in point is that of Maria Vivas. Having agreed with her husband Miro to sell a field she had inherited, for the needs of the household, she insisted on compensation. None being offered, she succeeded in dragging her husband to the scribe(法學(xué)家) to have a contract duly drawn up assigning her a piece of land from Miro’s personal inheritance. The unfortunate husband was obliged to agree, as the contract says, “for the sake of peace.” Either through the dowry or through being hot-tempered, the wife knew how to win herself, with the context of the family, a powerful economic position.ric illnesses including depression often do not manifest themselves until the late teens or early 20s.

  B. The wife could manage her husband’s personal property.

  C. The wife gained a powerful economic position.

  1.[C] 詞義推斷題。第1段第2句指出了 decimum的作用,即與“彩禮”相當(dāng),作為保護婦女的工具。第4句以 “The decimum was...”的句式指出其定義,綜合這兩句,可斷定選項C正確。

  2.[B] 推理判斷題。文章第1句就表明婦女當(dāng)時的地位很高,第1段最后兩句表明婦女與其丈夫的地位并無不同,是平等的,因此可以推斷本題答案應(yīng)為B。

  3.[A] 推理判斷題。本題考查例子與觀點的關(guān)系。該例子是為了證明其前面,即第2段開頭兩句的觀點,選項A是對這兩句話的總結(jié)。

  4.[A]推理判斷題。本題考査從例子的推斷。根據(jù)Maria Vivas的例子可確定答案,而且從第2段第4句中的Having agreed with her husband可推斷售賣妻子繼承的財產(chǎn)必須先征得妻子的同意,因此選項A正確。

  5.[D] 事實細節(jié)題?捎门懦ㄕ页龃鸢。第1段倒數(shù)第2句可證明選項A正確,第2段首句可證明選項B正確,第2段末句可表明選項C正確,只有選項D太絕對。
