Quote:
In the late nineteenth century, the need for women physicians in missionary hospitals in Canton, China, led to expanded opportunities for both Western women and Chinese women. The presence of Western women as medical missionaries in China was made possible by certain changes within the Western missionary movement. Beginning in the 1870s, increasingly large numbers of women were forming women's foreign mission societies dedicated to the support of women's foreign mission work. Beyond giving the women who organized the societies a formal activity outside their home circles, these organizations enabled an increasing number of single women missionaries (as opposed to women who were part of the more typical husband-wife missionary teams) to work abroad. Before the formation of these women's organizations, mission funds had been collected by ministers and other church leaders, most of whom emphasized local parish work. What money was spent on foreign missions was under the control of exclusively male foreign mission boards whose members were uniformly uneasy about the new idea of sending single women out into the mission field. But as women's groups began raising impressive amounts of money donated specifically in support of single women missionaries, the home churches bowed both to women's changing roles at home and to increasing numbers of single professional missionary women abroad.
Although the idea of employing a woman physician was a daring one for most Western missionaries in China, the advantages of a well-trained Western woman physician could not be ignored by Canton mission hospital administrators. A woman physician could attend women patients without offending any of the accepted conventions of female modesty. Eventually, some of these women were able to found and head separate women's medical institutions, thereby gaining access to professional responsibilities far beyond those available to them at home.
These developments also led to the attainment of valuable training and status by a significant number of Chinese women. The presence of women physicians in Canton mission hospitals led many Chinese women to avail themselves of Western medicine who might otherwise have failed to do so because of their culture's emphasis on physical modesty. In order to provide enough women physicians for these patients, growing numbers of young Chinese women were given instruction in medicine. This enabled them to earn an independent income, something that was then largely unavailable to women within traditional Chinese society. Many women graduates were eventually able to go out on their own into private practice, freeing themselves of dependence upon the mission community.
The most important result of these opportunities was the establishment of clear evidence of women's abilities and strengths, clear reasons for affording women expanded opportunities, and clear role models for how these abilities and responsibilities might be exercised.

Hi jawele,
I'm happy to help!
4. Which one of the following, if true, would most undermine the author's analysis of the reason for the increasing number of single women missionaries sent abroad beginning in the 1870s?
(A) The Western church boards that sent the greatest number of single women missionaries abroad had not received any financial support from women's auxiliary groups.
(B) The women who were sent abroad as missionary physicians had been raised in families with a strong history of missionary commitment.
(C) Most of the single missionary women sent abroad were trained as teachers and translators rather than as medical practitioners.
(D) The western church boards tended to send abroad single missionary women who had previously been active in local parish work.
(E) None of the single missionary women who were sent abroad were active members of foreign mission boards.
The first paragraph of the passage tells us that the money to be spent on foreign mission works was the sole discretion of male board memebers who were uneasy sending single women on foreign mission. However, "as women's groups began raising impressive amounts of money donated specifically in support of single women missionaries, the home churches bowed...". From this sentence we understand that the reason why churches agreed to send women abroad was the money raised by women's groups.
To answer this question, one could present an example where a very large group of women sent abroad were from churches that received little or no donation at all from the women's groups. This would break the author's argument since the author claims that the sole motivation of the churches to allow single women to work abroad was the money they received from the women's groups. (A) precisely talks about this scenario and is our correct answer.
Now let's shift gears and talk about option (D).
One of the main reasons why I eliminated this option was the explanation I suggested above: We have to understand the author's argument and refute that, not bring in any information that seems to fit the context.
Further, you seem to be mixing information from two different contexts (times) in the passage.
The late 19th century = 1851 to 1900.
The question talks about beginning of the 1870s.
The women's groups were formed in the beginning of the 1870s.
Now read this sentence:
"Before the formation of these women's organizations, mission funds had been collected by ministers and other church leaders, most of whom emphasized local parish work."
This means that before the 1870s, many ministers and other church leaders emphasized local parish work. But are we concerned about what happened before 1870s? NO! We are concerned about what happened after or during the 1870s.
What if the ministers and church leaders who emphasized local parish work changed their stance after the women's groups raised large sums of money? What if they now did not emphasize local parish work? They may or may not support local parish work. It is unstated information for us. Since, we don't know their stance after 1870s, we cannot use this information in the answer choice.
Hope this helps!
