  P5

  Questions 11 to 13 are based on the following passage.

  1

  Great comic art is never otherwordly, it does not seek to mystify us, and it does not deny ambiguity by branding as evil whatever differs from good.

  伟大的喜剧作品总是关注现实的,它从不忽悠人,也不否认善恶之间的模糊地带,不贴标签。

  2

  Great comic artists assume that truth may bear all lights, and thus they seek to accentuate contradictions in social action, not gloss over or transcend them by appeals to extra social symbols of divine ends, cosmic purpose, or laws of nature.

  伟大的喜剧艺术家认为真相经得起任何质疑,因此他们总是关注社会活动中的矛盾,不粉饰太平,也不越过这些矛盾,去关注那些超社会符号比如宗教意义的彼岸,宇宙的终极意义或自然法则。

  3

  The moment of transcendence in great comic art is a social moment, born out of the conviction that we are human, even though we try to be gods.

  伟大喜剧作品的最高潮是关于社会的,他基于这样一种信念:人类也可以追求神性。

  4

  The comic community to which artists address themselves is a community of reasoning, loving, joyful, compassionate beings, who are willing to assume the human risks of acting rationally.

  喜剧的社会,艺术家置身其中,它的成员是理性的,互相亲爱的,欢乐的,有同情心的,愿意承担理性行为所带来的后果的人。

  5

  Without invoking gods or demons, great comic art arouses courage in reason, courage which grows out of trust in what human beings can do as humans.

  伟大的喜剧作品不求助鬼神,而是唤醒一种理性的勇气,它生发于人类无愧于自身的信念。

  11. Select the sentence in the passage that suggests that great comic art can be characterized as optimistic about the ability of humans to act rationally.

  第5句。

  虽然 rationally 出现在文中第4句,但第4句都是写喜剧社会,和它的居民的特征,真正写喜剧作品的乐观主义,是最后一句,“不求助鬼神,相信人”本身的理性行为。真要找 rationally 在第5句的对应词,应该是 in reason 。

  12. It can be inferred from the passage that the author admires great comic artists primarily for their

  (A) ability to understand the frequently subtle differences between good and evil

  (B) ability to reconcile the contradictions in human behavior

  (C) ability to distinguish between rational and irrational behavior

  (D) insistence on confronting the truth about the human condition

  (E) insistence on condemning human faults and weaknesses

  选D。

  见第2句。

  13. Which of the following is the most accurate description of the organization of the passage?

  (A) A sequence of observations leading to a prediction

  (B) A list of inferences drawn from facts stated at the beginning of the passage

  (C) A series of assertions related to one general subject

  (D) A statement of the major idea, followed by specific examples

  (E) A succession of ideas moving from specific to general

  选C

  A 一些列观察最终指向一个预言

  B 开篇陈述的事实以及一系列由它得出的推论

  C 关于一个总的主题的一系列断言

  D 一种主观点,和一系列例子

  E 一系列从具体到总括的观点

  没有证据,没有支撑,通篇的言论都属于断言assertions。这个题看上去是讨论文章结构,其实还是考察批判思维基础。搞不清楚这些概念的同学,请看我以前发的GRE分析性写作基础,很前的以前了大概。
