GRE阅读题目解析:艺术无所不在,

2017-05-22 09:42:00来源:新东方在线整理

  P1

  1

  Nevelson says, "I have always wanted to show the world that art is everywhere, except that it has to pass through a creative mind."

  N 说:“一直以来我想要向世人展示的是艺术无所不在,只要你能通过一种创造的视角去观察。”

  (except 除了。意思是 except 所引导的内容,不包括在讨论范围之内。

  这句话之所以看起来别扭,是因为 N 省略了这个讨论范围,这个预设就是 “日常生活中没什么艺术”。生活无艺术,除非你用一种创造的眼光去观察,(我一直想告诉大家)才会发现生活到处是艺术。)

  2

  Using mostly discarded wooden objects like packing crates, broken pieces of furniture, and abandoned architectural ornaments, all of which she has hoarded for years, she assembles architectural constructions of great beauty and power.

  多年来她囤集了很多别人扔掉的木制品,比如板条箱,坏了的家具零件,废弃的建筑装饰材料,并把它们组合成各种极富美感又充满力量的构造。

  3

  Creating very freely with no sketches, she glues and nails objects together, paints them black, or more rarely white or gold, and places them in boxes.

  她用胶水和钉子固定材料,上黑漆,或者偶尔也用白色或金色,再放在盒子方块单元里,创作过程非常自由,没有草稿。

  (关于这里的 places them in boxes,不是说她做好一件作品就放在盒子里保存,她作品往往大到集装箱也装不下,而是指这些装配的元素都被一个个盒子一样的空间区隔,看了作品就能明白:

  nevelson 作品 《Sky Cathedral》

  Atmosphere and Environment XII by Louise Nevelson, 1970, Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)

  4

  These assemblages, walls, even entire environments create a mysterious, almost awe-inspiring atmosphere.

  这些组装作品,墙,甚至整个环境,产生一种神秘的,几乎令人敬畏的氛围。

  5

  Although she has denied any symbolic or religious intent in her works, their three-dimensional grandeur and even their titles, such as Sky Cathedral and Night Cathedral, suggest such connotations. (124 words)

  尽管她否认自己的作品中有任何象征或有关宗教的用意,但它们壮阔的空间感甚至它们的标题,诸如 Sky Cathedral 和 Night cathedral 都流露出这种味道。

  (没搜到 Nevelson 名为 Night Cathedral 或 Sky cathedral and Night Cathedral 的作品的信息,请有线索的同学提示我。)

  1. Which of the following is one way in which Nevelson's art illustrates her theory as it is expressed in the first sentence?

  (A) She sculpts in wood rather than in metal or stone.

  (B) She paints her sculptures and frames them in boxes.

  (C) She makes no preliminary sketches but rather allows the sculpture to develop as she works.

  (D) She puts together pieces of ordinary objects once used for different purposes to make her sculptures.

  (E) She does not deliberately attempt to convey symbolic or religious meanings through her sculpture.

  选 D

  注意 first sentence:

  Nevelson says, "I have always wanted to show the world that art is everywhere, except that it has to pass through a creative mind."

  用原来作其他用途的日常物品来创作,选 D 。
