GRE阅读题目解析:描写女性的文学作品

2017-04-10 09:18:00来源:新东方在线整理

  P1

  1

  Paule Marshall's Brown Girl, Brownstones (1959) was a landmark in the depiction of female characters in Black American literature.

  M 的《BGB》(1959)在美国黑人文学领域,是刻画女性角色的一部里程碑式作品。

  2

  Marshall avoided the oppressed and tragic heroine in conflict with White society that had been typical of the protest novels of early twentieth century.

  M 没有像 20 世纪早期那些典型的反抗小说一样,把女主角置于和白人社会对立的环境中,表现她受压迫和悲剧的一面。

  3

  Like her immediate predecessors, Zora Neale Hurston and Gwendolyn Brooks, she focused her novel on an ordinary Black woman's search for identity within the context of a Black community.

  正如前辈作家 ZNH 与 GB,她的小说关注普通黑人女性如何在黑人社会语境中追寻自我。

  4

  But Marshall extended the analysis of Black female characters begun by Hurston and Brooks by depicting her heroine's development in terms of the relationship between her Barbadian American parents, and by exploring how male and female roles were defined by their immigrant culture, which in turn was influenced by the materialism of White America.

  H 和 B 开创了一种对黑人女性角色进行分析的角度,而 M 通过刻画女主角发展与其 Barbadian 裔(从Barbados来的,Barbados是位于中美洲西印度群岛的一个国家,)美国人父母的关系,以及探索两性角色如何被移民文化定义,进而又逐个被美国白人文化的物质主义影响,拓展了这种分析。

  5

  By placing characters within a wider cultural context, Marshall attacked racial and sexual stereotypes and paved the way for explorations of race, class, and gender in the novels of the 1970's.

  把角色置于更广阔的文化语境中,使 M 得以抨击种族主义,以及性别的刻板理解,进而为1970年代的小说探索种族,阶级以及性别铺就了道路。

  For the following question, consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply

  1. It can be inferred that the author of the passage would describe Brown Girl, Brownstones as being

  □A highly influenced by novels written in the early twentieth century

  □B important in the late 1950's but dated today

  □C an important influence on novels written in the1970's

  选 C

  A 句 2 告诉我们M的小说跟二十世纪早期的某些典型的反抗小说不同,不能判断是否受其影响。

  B 前半句对,但不能判断这部小说几天是否过时

  C 正确项,根据在句 5 。

  2. According to the passage, Hurston, Brooks, and Marshall are alike in that they

  ○A did not examine the effects of White culture on their characters' lives

  ○B were heavily influenced by the protest novels of the early twentieth century

  ○C used Black communities as the settings for their novels.

  ○D wrote primarily about the difficulties their characters encountered in White culture

  ○E wrote exclusively about female characters and the experiences of women

  选 C

  根据句 3:

  Like her immediate predecessors, Zora Neale Hurston and Gwendolyn Brooks, she focused her novel on an ordinary Black woman's search for identity within the context of a Black community.

  可见 C 项正确。

  3. The author‘s description of the way in which Marshall depicts her heroine's development is most probably intended to

  ○A continue the discussion of similarities in the works of Brooks, Hurston, and Marshall

  ○B describe the specific racial and sexual stereotypes that Marshall attacked

  ○C contrast the characters in Marshall's novels with those in later works

  ○D show how Marshall extends the portrayal of character initiated by her predecessors

  ○E compare themes in Marshall's early work with themes in her later novels

  选 D

  首先根据题干定位,文中唯一一处出现 “ her heroine's development ” 是句 4 。

  长句,分解一下结构,主干为加粗部分:

  But M extended the analysis (of Black female characters begun by Hurston and Brooks) by depicting (her heroine's development in terms of the relationship between her Barbadian American parents,) and by exploring (how male and female roles were defined by their immigrant culture, which in turn was influenced by the materialism of White America) .

  可见 depicting and exploring 的目的是 extended the analysis,所以选 D 。
