>>GRE阅读：杨鹏GRE长难句分析:早期的纺织厂主们

For instance, early textile-mill entrepreneurs, in justifying women’s employment in wage labor, made much of the assumption that women were by nature skillful at detailed tasks and patient in carrying out repetitive chores; the mill owners thus imported into the new industrial order hoary stereotypes associated with the homemaking activities they presumed to have been the purview of women.

【标识】

For instance, early textile-mill entrepreneurs, 1[in justifying women’s employment] 2[in wage labor], made much of the assumption 3[that women were by nature skillful at detailed tasks and patient in carrying out repetitive chores]; the mill owners thus imported into the new industrial order 4[hoary stereotypes] 5[associated with the homemaking activities] 6[that they presumed] 7[to have been the purview of women].

【难点】

1. 介词结构倒装。in justifying women’s employment修饰entrepreneurs。2. 介词结构倒装。in wage labor修饰women’s employment。3. 同位语从句。that引导的同位语从句进一步解释assumption。4. 宾语倒装。hoary stereotypes是imported的直接宾语。5. 分词结构倒装。associated with the homemaking activities修饰stereotypes。6. 定语从句及省略。that引导的定语从句修饰activities，此处省略引导词that。7. 介词结构倒装。to have been the purview of women修饰activities。

【译文】

比如，早期的纺织厂主们在说明他们在工资劳动中雇佣妇女的理由时，已经做了很大程度的假设，他们认为妇女天生就擅长做细活，并在进行重复性的杂务时也更加细心;因此，早期的纺织厂主们就把这样的陈词滥调引入到了新的工业秩序中，即认为家务劳动是妇女的天职。

【3s版本】

纺织厂主倾向于雇女工是因为他们的成见认为妇女擅长干细致的家务活。
