　　句子解析：

　　第一句：

　　In the majority opinion of United States v. Virginia, the most important case of her tenure, Justice Ginsburg took pains to make clear that the Constitution did not require ignoring all differences between the sexes.(蓝色宾语从句)

　　参考译文：在“美国诉弗吉尼亚州”一案的(她任期内最重要的案件)多数派意见中，金斯伯格法官极力地阐明，宪法并不要求忽视两性之间的所有差异。

　　第二句：

　　“Inherent differences between men and women, (we have come to appreciate,) remain cause for celebration,” she wrote, “but not for denigration of the members of either sex or for artificial constraints on an individual’s opportunity.”

　　调整一下语序:

　　she wrote, we have come to appreciate,) “Inherent differences between men and women, remain cause for celebration,”“but not for denigration of the members of either sex or for artificial constraints on an individual’s opportunity.”

　　参考译文：她写道，“我们开始认识到，男女之间的固有差异仍然值得庆祝，但不能因此诋毁任何一种性别或人为限制一个人的机会。”

　　第三句：

　　Any differential treatment, (she emphasized) must not “create or perpetuate the legal, social, and economic inferiority of women.”

　　参考译文：她强调，任何差别待遇都不得“造成或延续女性在法律、社会和经济上的劣势”。

　　思考题解析：

　　It can be inferred from the text that the U.S. Constitution___.

　　A. has been interpreted differently by Ginsburg and some people.

　　被金斯伯格和其他人不同地解读。

　　这是正确答案!

　　来源是第一句：

　　金斯伯格法官极力地阐明，宪法并不要求忽视两性之间的所有差异。

　　如果其他人和她的解读一样，那她就不用极力的阐明了。

　　所以就是有一些(some)和她对宪法的理解不一样所以才，会有她极力的阐明。这个题目命题的灵感是来自2007年智商测试这篇文章。说到有成人版和儿童版。得出结论成人版和儿童版的内容可能会不一样。

　　B. has created artificial constraints on women’s opportunity

　　造成了对于女性机会的人为的限制。

　　这是不对的。没有提及!

　　C. has been cited by Virginia Congress to promote racial equality

　　被弗吉尼亚州议会引用以促进种族平等

　　这里没有提及!错!

　　D. has posed substantial constraints on women and other individuals.

　　对妇女和其他个人造成了严重的限制。

　　也没有提及，错!
