The theatrical practice in Renaissance England of using boys to play women's roles has traditionally been explained as the product both of European Renaissance social prohibitions against public performances by women and of the establishment of an all-male performance tradition during the Middle Ages by craft guilds and civic groups whose members, all men, staged religious plays.However, considerable evidence shows that craft guilds in medieval England were not exclusively male and that women sometimes performed religious plays: records from Chester, for example, indicate that "wives of the town" performed such a play in the late fifteenth century. Moreover, during the Renaissance,French, Italian, and Spanish women acted in public plays in their own countries and even performed in London, where they were sometimes received favorably despite London audiences' extreme xenophobia.That English women performed on the public stage in the non-acting capacity of singing further complicates any understanding of the English practice of using boys to play women's roles.

The author of the passage refers to the xenophobia of London audiences most probably in order to

point out a circumstance that might have been expected to impede their acceptance of foreign women as performers in public plays suggest that English audiences were less tolerant of innovative theatrical practices than were audiences in France, Italy, and Spain note a characteristic of English audiences that became more pronounced during the Renaissance than it had been during the Middle Ages offer a further reason why English audiences’ approval of French.Italian, and Spanish women actors was rare highlight an exception to the way in which English audiences characteristically received actors from foreign countries

有从句且比较长的选项一定抓准主干，看清选项意思！A说指出一种（理应阻止伦敦观众接受外国女性作为公开表演的表演者的）情况，E说强调一种（英国观众接受外国演员的）方式的例外，“仇外”不是例外，可以说是英国人的传统，因为原文强调了extreme，极度仇外

按功能来说为啥不选E？外国女演员在英国也可以受欢迎即使英国观众是仇外的。这就是一个exception啊

相逢自在山巅回复相逢自在山巅按功能来说确实E更像，A更像一种直接的解释不是对句子的衬托，但是E说的是突出对外国演员的例外，而不是对女性演员

1105362kgjf 回复 1105362kgjf E说反了吧选项是exception of the way（英国人接受外国演员）实际是英国人仇外的特例（？）

301021ctlc 回复 301021ctlc 我觉得可以这样理解哈，就是法国西班牙也是仇外的，但是英国格外extreme仇外，这句话相当于一个递进，所以不能说是exception，exception有种无关紧要的意思，但是作者实际上是想强调在这么极端的国家都被接受了

345204ddbh 回复 345204ddbh 这个选项的意思恰好与你理解的：“连些例外的人都接受”相反，拿去百度翻译一下就可以了。如果作者是要说，他们接受只是一个例外，那文章的立场就是反对女性表演了
