Federal courts in the United States, especially before the famous 1962 case of Baker v. Carr, were often thought to be powerless in the area of election law, voting rights, and other legal questions clearly bearing on politics. This perception was not entirely correct, of course, as pre-1962 Supreme Court decisions such as that in the case of Smith v. Allwright demonstrated in the wake of that decision, voting participation among African Americans in the South increased substantially. However, political rights had not always been so clearly championed by the Supreme Court as they were in Smith v. Allwright. Indeed, the transformations between the Civil War and 1962 were such that, in reviewing voters' rights cases over the intervening decades, one feels like an archaeologist cutting through distinct layers in which the judicial decisions uncovered reveal a pattern of ideological and societal change.

Which of the following can be inferred regarding the case of Baker v. Carr?

(A) Its outcome required clarification in subsequent decisions rendered by the Supreme Court. (B) Its resolution attested to the power of federal courts to address legal issues related to politics. (C) It marked a radical change in judicial thinking in the United States. (D) It was decided before the Supreme Courts heard the case of Smith v. Allwright. (E) It has little historical significance aside from its focus on laws affecting politics.

答案：B。推断题。
根据Baker v. Carr定位到文中第一句。“before the famous 1962 case of Baker v. Carr, were often thought to be powerless in the area of...politics.” 也就是说，BC这个案例之前，法院判决在政治上都是powerless的。B选项“它的决议证明了联邦法院有权处理与政治有关的法律问题。”正确。
A错，Its outcome required clarification无中生有。
C错，marked a radical change过度推理，无中生有。
D错，逻辑错误，时间弄反了。
E错，little historical significance无中生有
