问题 Fighting for a Brighter Future for Women When I was asked what it means to be a woman running for president, I always gave the same answer that I was proud to be running as a woman, but I was running because I thought I'd be the best president. But I am a woman and, like millions of women I know there are still barriers and biases (偏见)out there, often unconscious, and I want to build an America that respects and embraces the potential of every last one of us. I ran as a daughter who benefited from opportunities my mother never dreamed of. I ran as a mother who worried about my daughter's future and a mother who wants to leave all children brighter tomorrows. To build that future I see, we must make sure that women and men alike understand the struggles of their grandmothers and their mothers, and that women enjoy equal opportunities, equal pay, and equal respect. Let us resolve and work toward achieving very simple propositions (命题): There are no acceptable limits, and there are no acceptable prejudices in the 21st century in our country. You can also be so proud that, from now on, it will be unremarkable for a woman to win primary state victories, unremarkable to have a woman in a close race to be our nominee (被提名者), unremarkable to think that a woman can be the president of the United States. And this is truly remarkable, my friends. To those who are disappointed that we couldn't go all of the way, especially the young people who put so much into this campaign, it would break my heart if, in failing short of my goal, I in any way discouraged any of you from pursuing yours. Always aim high, work hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. And, when you stumble (犯错), keep faith. And, when you're knocked down, get right back up and never listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't goon.As we gather here today in this historic, magnificent building, the 50th woman to leave the Earth is orbiting (绕轨道运行) overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will someday launch a woman into the White House. Many American young people feel disappointed at Hillary's failure to win the nomination.（）

选项 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned

答案 A

解析题干：许多美国年轻人为希拉里没有赢得选举感到很失望．由关键词disappointed 定位到第七段：“对于那些很失望的人，尤其是在竞选中投入太多的年轻人，如果你们因此看低我的梦想，或者让你们在追求梦想的时候因此而受挫，我会很伤心的。”很显然，题干叙述符合原文，因此选A。
