GRE阅读题目解析:制图学研究分裂

2017-07-26 09:13:00来源：网络

　　P1

　　1

　　A divide between aesthetic and technical considerations has played a crucial role in mapmaking and cartographic scholarship.

　　考虑美学因素还是技术因素，这种分裂已经成为制图技术和制图学研究的关键。

　　2

　　Since nineteenth century cartographers, for instance, understood themselves as technicians who did not care about visual effects, while others saw themselves as landscape painters.

　　因为，譬如十九世纪的制图者，把自己视为技师，不关心视觉效果，而其他时期的制图者认为自己是风景画师。

　　3

　　That dichotomy structured the discipline of the history of cartography.

　　这种分歧构成了制图学历史的研究内容。

　　(displine 【MWC】a field of study 学科，研究内容，研究领域)

　　4

　　Until the 1980s, in what Blakemore and Harley called “the Old is Beautiful Paradigm,” scholars largely focused on maps made before 1800, marveling at their beauty and sometimes regretting the decline of the pre-technical age.

　　直到 1980 年代，在被 B 和 H 成为 “ 老的就是美的范例中 ”，学者主要聚焦于 1800 年以前制作的地图，惊异于这些地图的美感，有时对前科技时代的衰落感到惋惜。

　　5

　　Early mapmaking was considered art while modern cartography was located within the realm of engineering utility.

　　早期地图绘制被认为是一门艺术，而现代制图术被归于工程用途的领域。

　　6

　　Alpers, however, has argued that this boundary would have puzzled mapmakers in the seventeenth century, because they considered themselves to be visual engineers.

　　然而 A 认为，这种界别可能令十七世纪的制图者迷惑，因为他们把自己看作视觉工程师。

　　1. According to the passage, Alpers would say that the assumptions underlying the “paradigm” were

　　A. inconsistent with the way some mapmakers prior to 1800 understand their own work

　　B. dependent on a seventeenth-century conception of mapmaking visual engineering

　　C. unconcerned with the difference between the aesthetic and technical questions of mapmaking

　　D. insensitive to divisions among cartographers working in the period after 1800

　　E. supported by the demonstrable technical superiority of mapmaking made after 1800

　　选 A

　　经过组合的细节题，保持头脑清晰。

　　文中只有最后一句提到过 Alpers 这个人，句 5 - 6：

　　Early mapmaking was considered art while modern cartography was located within the realm of engineering utility. Alpers, however, has argued that this boundary would have puzzled mapmakers in the seventeenth century , ...

　　而 paradigm 则出现在句 4：

　　Until the 1980s, in what Blakemore and Harley called “the Old is Beautiful Paradigm,” scholars largely focused on maps made before 1800, marveling at their beauty and sometimes regretting the decline of the pre-technical age.

　　问我们，从 A 的观点来看，paradigm 所隐含的假设如何?

　　回答这类细节题，有个收敛原则，某人物 只能回答文段中她回答过的问题。

　　文段中 A 发表过一个观点，即句 6，在选项中找它的同义转述。

　　所以选 A 。

　　2. It can be inferred from the passage that, beginning in the 1980s, historians of cartography

　　A. placed greater emphasis on the beauty of maps made after 1800

　　B. expanded their range of study to include more material created after 1800

　　C. grew more sensitive to the way mapmakers prior to 1800 conceived of their work

　　D. came to see the visual details of maps as aesthetic objects rather than practical cartographic aids

　　E. reduced the attention they paid to the technical aspects of mapmaking

　　选 B

　　难题。

　　A 说反了，不是 after 1800 。

　　B 文章明确告诉我们，1980 年代开始，学者们开始注意到 1800 年以前的地图非常精美，有艺术成就，那么我们有理由 infer 他们肯定也看了很多 1800 年以后的地图，只有两相对照，才能得出前者更美的结论。

　　C 文中只说到学者们注意到了 1800 前的地图的美，没有证据说学者们对 “ 制图者们如何看待自己的作品 ” 更敏感了。强干扰。

　　D 错在 visual details，文中没有提到任何 detail 。

　　E 文中没有证据表明 reduce 了。
