GRE阅读题目解析:画家作品创作日期

2017-01-20 17:30:00来源:网络

  P4

  1

  The painter Peter Brandon never dated his works, and their chronology is only now beginning to take shape in the critical literature.

  画家 P B 从不在作品上标明创作日期,它们的年表一直不详,直到最近才被评论界整理出一些眉目。

  (take shape 成型,变得有条理

  literature 此处不是文学,而是【MWC】the body of writings on a particular subject,某领域、学科的专著、文献,所以 critical literature 就是评论方面的著作,我把它意译为评论界。)

  2

  A recent dating of a Brandon self-portrait to 1930 is surely wrong.

  最近把 B 的一幅自画像标定为 1930 年创作无疑是错误的。

  3

  Brandon was 63 years old in 1930, yet the painting shows a young, dark-haired man-obviously Brandon, but clearly not a man of 63.

  B 1930 年 63 岁,然而画上是一个年轻的,深色头发的男人 —— 明显是 B,但肯定不是 63 岁的老头。

  8. Which of the following, if justifiably assumed, allows the conclusion to be properly drawn?

  (A) There is no securely dated self-portrait of Brandon that he painted when he was significantly younger than 63.

  (B) In refraining from dating his works, Brandon intended to steer critical discussion of them away from considerations of chronology.

  (C) Until recently, there was very little critical literature on the works of Brandon.

  (D) Brandon at age 63 would not have portrayed himself in a painting as he had looked when he was a young man.

  (E) Brandon painted several self-portraits that showed him as a man past the age of 60.

  选 D

  下列哪个条件成立,文章的结论可以被认为是恰当的。

  首先这意味着,文章的结论不严谨,如果你读完文章觉得是这么回事,要警惕了,你肯定忽略了什么。

  第二,你要找出文章的结论 conclusion 是什么。

  这不难,一共就三句话,结论是第二句。

  我们不妨逆向思维,如果这幅画真的是 Brandon 1930 年画的呢?

  那么就是一个 63 岁的 Brandon 画了一幅 30 年前的自己,凭着记忆也许。这种可能性显然存在,并不违背常识。

  所以选 D 。只有排除了这种可能,文章的结论可以被认为是恰当的。我个人觉得作者错的面大。
