The fields of antebellum (pre-Civil War) political history and women's history use separate sources and focus on separate issues. Political historians, examining sources such as voting records, newspapers, and politicians' writings, focus on the emergence in the 1840's of a new "American political nation," and since women were neither voters nor politicians, they receive little discussion. Women's historians, meanwhile, have shown little interest in the subject of party politics, instead drawing on personal papers, legal records such as wills, and records of female associations to illuminate women's domestic lives, their moral reform activities, and the emergence of the woman's rights movement.
However, most historians have underestimated the extent and significance of women's political allegiance in the antebellum period. For example, in the presidential election campaigns of the 1840's, the Virginia Whig party strove to win the allegiance of Virginia's women by inviting them to rallies and speeches. According to Whig propaganda, women who turned out at the party's rallies gathered information that enabled them to mold party-loyal families, reminded men of moral values that transcended party loyalty, and conferred moral standing on the party. Virginia Democrats, in response, began to make similar appeals to women as well. By the mid-1850's the inclusion of women in the rituals of party politics had become commonplace and the ideology that justified such inclusion had been assimilated by the Democrats.
According to the second paragraph of the passage, Whig propaganda included the assertion that
women should enjoy more political rights than they did
women were the most important influences on political attitudes within a family
women's reform activities reminded men of important moral values
women's demonstrations at rallies would influence men's voting behavior
women's presence at rallies would enhance the moral standing of the party

答案是 E。从第二段文字中可以看出，Whig宣传工作包括宣称妇女们出席集会和演讲会可以为政党增添道德地位的观点。选项E“在集会上的妇女的存在可以增强政党的道德地位”正是这一观点的重新陈述。
做的时候纠结了C，但是题目中没说reform activities
according的题一定要注意每个词语和细节
women's demonstrations 示威游行
enhance：提高
C选项没说reform activities，D选项没说voting
细节题，先准确定位，然后完全根据文章的细节来，文章说什么就是什么 -- D 选项，文章并没有说women影响了men的voting behavior, 但确实说了confer moral standing on the party

细节题，先准确定位，然后完全根据文章的细节来，文章说什么就是什么 -- D 选项，文章并没有说women影响了men的voting behavior, 但确实说了confer moral standing on the party
C. 与reform activities无关
D. demonstration：示威游行，文中并未提到
E. 原文：conferred moral standing on the party = enhance the moral standing of the party，正确
没提到改革运动（reform activities）
纠结了E选项 但原文是“conferred moral standing on the party”，选项是enhance。我以为这不一样嘛。。。
demonstrations 示威游行
According to Whig propaganda, women who turned out at the party's rallies gathered information that enabled them to mold party-loyal families, reminded men of moral values that transcended party loyalty, and conferred moral standing on the party.
D： demonstrations at rallies 怎么想也是错的。没提到这个。
C的reform activity 改革活动 错误
C的reform activity 改革活动 错误 confer授予；赋予
笔记：women's [demonstrations] at rallies would influence men's voting behavior [X]
women's presence at rallies would enhance the moral standing of the party [confer sth on 授予给予，可以是这个意思】
According to Whig propaganda, women who turned out at the party's rallies gathered information that enabled them to mold party-loyal families, reminded men of moral values that transcended party loyalty, and conferred moral standing on the party. B）most错 C）没提到reform
注意c和E的区别，C说的是reform activity，E说的是presence at rally，明显文章说的是presence at rally。
d 错哪里了？women’s demonstration would not influence men’s vote behavior.
Or it is not women’s demonstration but presence.
