主旨題是GRE閱讀的一道必考題,題干通常為The primary purpose of the passage is to...問這篇文章的主要目的其實就可以理解為問這篇文章的中心思想, 對于處理這一類題型建議備考的小伙伴們從文章結(jié)構(gòu)上進行準(zhǔn)備。
一般文本結(jié)構(gòu)由兩種分類一種是Linear結(jié)構(gòu),另外一種是Hierarchy結(jié)構(gòu),除此之外大量的文章可能是兩種結(jié)構(gòu)的疊加?;谝陨蟽煞N結(jié)構(gòu)我們的主旨句往往來自于中心思想句的改寫,文章展開結(jié)構(gòu)的概括,文章邏輯重點的概括。
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.
文本分析:
Sentence (1)是一個系表結(jié)構(gòu),那么明確句子表述對象也就是主語和表語就行: Eliot’s work = replication。Sentence (2)中“Its”指代的就是Eliot’s work,我們可以判斷出是對第1句話的延伸:Its detailing=Hirsch。Sentence(3) 出現(xiàn)了一個非常明顯的邏輯詞“However”表達出對前面信息的否定。Critic Artour Mirkovic認為是E’s work 是idealization,并且在Sentence(4)中表達出E’s作品unlikely to be realistic=idealization。Sentence(5) 出現(xiàn)邏輯詞“Likewise”表明和前面觀點同方向即Lindsay Babaev認為是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.
從文本分析中可以看出本文是一個Linear結(jié)構(gòu),文本的邏輯重點在第三句通過However這個邏輯關(guān)聯(lián)詞引出AM與LB兩人對E的作品給出的critical views。那么正確選項選擇D。
