主旨题是GRE阅读的一道必考题,题干通常為(wèi)The primary purpose of the passage is to...问这篇文(wén)章的主要目的其实就可(kě)以理(lǐ)解為(wèi)问这篇文(wén)章的中心思想, 对于处理(lǐ)这一类题型建议备考的小(xiǎo)伙伴们从文(wén)章结构上进行准备。
一般文(wén)本结构由两种分(fēn)类一种是Linear结构,另外一种是Hierarchy结构,除此之外大量的文(wén)章可(kě)能(néng)是两种结构的叠加。基于以上两种结构我们的主旨句往往来自于中心思想句的改写,文(wén)章展开结构的概括,文(wén)章逻辑重点的概括。
Eliot's work Snowman on a Wooden in Trondheim has been received as a purely literal and unqualified replication of a winter view. Its meticulous detailing of the clouds and smoke in the backdrop is said to parallel the pastoral scenes portrayed by the likes of Hirsch. However, critic Artour Mirkovic suggests alternatively that the work exemplifies Eliot’s idealization of serenity and tranquility as opposed to an unstinting reproduction of a Norwegian suburb. Although he recognizes the exactitude with which Eliot depicted the landscape, Mirkovic cites chemical study that relates the pigment to the warm Mediterranean Island Sicily, where Eliot frequented for inspiration, arguing that the picture was unlikely to be a realistic portrayal of his direct experience. Likewise, art historian Lindsay Babaev points to affinity between Eliot and impressionist master Laurence, contending that Eliot’s masterpiece needs to be interpreted beyond its surface value.
文(wén)本分(fēn)析:
Sentence (1)是一个系表结构,那么明确句子表述对象也就是主语和表语就行: Eliot’s work = replication。Sentence (2)中“Its”指代的就是Eliot’s work,我们可(kě)以判断出是对第1句话的延伸:Its detailing=Hirsch。Sentence(3) 出现了一个非常明显的逻辑词“However”表达出对前面信息的否定。Critic Artour Mirkovic认為(wèi)是E’s work 是idealization,并且在Sentence(4)中表达出E’s作品unlikely to be realistic=idealization。Sentence(5) 出现逻辑词“Likewise”表明和前面观点同方向即Lindsay Babaev认為(wèi)是E’s作品beyond its surface value。
The primary purpose of the passage is to______.
challenge popular interpretation of one of Eliot’s paintings.
argue that Eliot’s realism is a merging of seemingly contradictory schools.
reconcile different attitudes toward a style of paintings.
present critical views that may call into question an orthodox position.
call for further evidence to resolve a debate regarding an artistic interpretation.
从文(wén)本分(fēn)析中可(kě)以看出本文(wén)是一个Linear结构,文(wén)本的逻辑重点在第三句通过However这个逻辑关联词引出AM与LB两人对E的作品给出的critical views。那么正确选项选择D。
