It was well that after centuries of repression and subjection woman sought emancipation. She needed it. But the wildest flight of fancy cannot long conceal the ultimate fact. Woman is the mother of the race. Has woman been freed from subjection, from an inferior place in the scheme of life, only to become so intoxicated with a personal freedom, with her own personal ambition, that she fails to see what emancipation really means? Will she be contented merely to imitate man rather than to work out a destiny of her own? We think not. When the first flush of freedom has passed, the pendulum will turn again and woman will find a truer place than she knows now or has known.

Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage?
A.Emancipated women should leave behind all their old responsibilities of homemaking and child rearing.
B.Women sought emancipation because they had been repressed for centuries.
C.Once women are free, they should take on masculine roles as much as possible.
D.Liberated women should not try to act like men, but find new roles for themselves as women and mothers.
E.Women are destined to be mothers, and nothing more.
