GRE阅读题目解析:摄影艺术

2017-01-16 16:44:00来源:网络

  P5

  1

  Ironically, now that photography is securely established as a fine art, many photographers find it pretentious or irrelevant to label it as such.

  现在摄影无疑被认为是一门美术,讽刺的是,许多摄影师认为这种标签过于自大或毫不切题。

  2

  Serious photographers variously claim to be finding, recording, impartially observing, witnessing events, exploring themselves—anything but making works of art.

  严肃的摄影师纷纷自称在寻找,记录,中立地观察,见证事件,探索自身 —— 唯独不说自己在创作艺术品。

  3

  In the nineteenth century, photography's association with the real world placed it in an ambivalent relation to art; late in the twentieth century, an ambivalent relation exists because of the Modernist heritage in art.

  十九世纪,摄影与现实世界的联系使它与艺术的关系摇摆不定;二十世纪晚期,同样矛盾的感觉则缘于艺术中的现代主义遗产。

  4

  That important photographers are no longer willing to debate whether photography is or is not a fine art, except to proclaim that their own work is not involved with art, shows the extent to which they simply take for granted the concept of art imposed by the triumph of Modernism: the better the art, the more subversive it is of the traditional aims of art. (142 words)

  摄影大家们已经不愿再争辩摄影是否归于美术,只宣称自己的作品无关艺术,表明他们已经深深地接受现代主义对艺术观念的成功影响:越好的艺术,越颠覆艺术的传统目标。

  9.Which of the following adjectives best describes “ the concept of art imposed by the triumph of Modernism ” as the author represents it in the last sentence?

  (A) Objective

  (B) Mechanical

  (C) Superficial

  (D) Dramatic

  (E) Paradoxical

  选 E

  单词题。

  objective 真实的,客观的

  mechanical 机械(论)的,工具的

  superficial 表面的,肤浅的

  dramatic 戏剧性的,引人注目的

  paradoxical 矛盾的

  ... the concept of art imposed by the triumph of Modernism: the better the art, the more subversive it is of the traditional aims of art .

  选 E 应该争议不大。

  10. In the context in which it appears, " ambivalent " most nearly means

  ○A subversive

  ○B unambiguous

  ○C equivocal

  ○D disreputable

  ○E contradictory

  选 C

  感觉被敷衍了,两道单词题,遭遇了罕见的敷衍。

  subversive 颠覆性的

  unambiguous 清晰明确的,精准的

  equivocal 模棱两可的,不确定的

  disreputable 不光彩的,不名誉的,不体面的,不雅的

  contradictory 矛盾对立的,爱争辩的

  同样是 “矛盾的” 字面,ambivalent 偏重的是 “不确定”,contradictory 强调的是对抗,所以选 C 。
