While Belasco’s meticulously detailed reproduction of an immediately recognizable setting impressed the public, it was derided by progressive theater critics who championed the New Stagecraft theories of European artists like Max Reinhardt. The New Stagecraft rejected theatrical literalism; it drew inspiration from the subjectivity and minimalism of modern painters, advocating simplified sets designed to express a dramatic texts central ideas. Such critics considered Belasco a craftsman who merely captured surface realities: a true artist eliminated the inessential to create more meaningful, expressive stage images.1. The author of the passage implies which of the following about Belasco’s production of The Governors Lady?A. It was dismissed by certain theater critics who misunders tood Belasco’s conception of modernity.B. It was intended to marshal elements of the New Stagecraft to serve Belasco’s predilection for realistic staging.C. It demonstrated that theatrical literalism could be used effectively to express a dramatic texts central ideas.D. It elicited responses that reflected a discrepancy between popular tastes in entertainment and the tastes of progressive theater critics.E. It relied on the appeal of an impressively realistic stage set to compensate for weaknesses in other aspects of the production.2. It can be inferred that the theater critics would be most likely to agree with which of the following statements about the theatrical productions?A. Theatrical productions that seek to eliminate the inessential also often eliminate theatrical elements that enhance the expressiveness of a play.B. Theatrical productions that faithfully recreate the visual details of everyday life are unlikely to do justice to a good play’s central ideas.C. Theatrical productions that employ the minimalism characteristic of modern paintings may have greater appeal to modern audiences than productions that rely on theatrical literalism.D. Theatrical productions that aim to represent truths about modern life should not attempt to employ elements of the New Stagecraft.E. Theatrical productions that attempt to produce authentic-looking scenes of everyday reality are likely to fail in that goal because of the theaters inherent limitations.Archaeologists studying Bonito phase (ca. A.D. 900-1140) Native American ceramics from Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, observed that many pots had been altered after firing to revise their decorative designs--usually, intricate geometric patterns painted in black on white slipped surfaces. In some cases, a new design was imposed over an earlier one; less often, the original design was simply covered with white slip. Crown and Wills doubt that the alterations were made to correct design errors. Many Chaco pots with design errors were left unaltered. Furthermore, when errors were corrected, revisions were made prior to firing—either by painting directly over the error or by scraping off designs and applying new slip and paint, which is a less time-consuming method than repainting and refiring flawed pots.1. The author of the passage mentions Crown and Wills primarily in order toA. Distinguish among different factors that might have caused Chaco potters to alter their pots’ decorative designs.B. Introduce new evidence related to the question o f why Chaco potters altered their pots’ decorative designs.C. Show how one potential explanation for the alteration of Chaco pots has been discounted.D. Present a hypothesis about why Chaco pots were altered to revise their decorative designs.E. Explain how archaeologists discerned the method by which Chaco pots were originally decorated.2. According to the passage, which of the following is true of Bonito phase Chaco pots?A. Relatively few of them have original designs concealed beneath white surfaces.B. Relatively few of them were altered after firing.C. Many of their alterations increased the intricacy of their painted designs.D. Many of them have some flaw in their shape or structure.E. Many of them were altered more than once.The physicist Wallace Sabine pioneered the scientific study of architectural acoustics when he was asked in 1895 to fix a university lecture hall in which the echo of a speaker’s words rendered them unintelligible. He found that the length of time it takes a sound’s echo to decay is determined by the absorption of the sound’s original energy by surrounding material. By hanging panels of sound-absorbing felt on the walls, Sabine reduced the echo enough to make the hall usable. And the data he compiled yielded a mathematical formula for the relationship between a room’s echo duration, its quantity and quality of sound-absorbing materials, and its spatial volume.1. Which of the following can be inferred about the ‘university lecture hall’ mentioned in the passage?A. It was not originally designed to be used for lecture.B. It was more suitable for listening to music than for listening to the spoken word.C. Its walls had surfaces made of material with very poor sound-absorbing properties.D. Its poor acoustics resulted from its being designed to accommodate a large audience.E. It was constructed at a time when sound-absorbing building materials were not readily available.2. The passage suggests that Sabine’s work made which of the following possible for the first time?A. to make a room soundproofB. to build an auditorium out of sound-absorbing materialsC. to construct an enclosed space in which sound would not echoD. to design a building to meet predetermined specifications with regard to echo durationE. to render any large room usable for public lectures and performancesIn recent decades, scholars of American literature have skillfully revealed authors’ simultaneous accommodation and resistance to an increasingly commercialized, capitalized environment during the early nineteenth century. Historians of the period have not, however, fully exploited literary criticism, due to the disciplinary boundaries that mark contemporary academic research. Few historians have extensive training in critical theory and its specialized languages, and the sheer volume of work in early American history and literature challenges anyone who would master either field, much less both. Moreover, historians study people across the nation, but much literary scholarship called “American” actually examines works produced in northeastern states. And historians usually study the operations of capitalism in its details, while literary critics produce a generalized picture of literary commodification.1. As discussed in the passage, the literary scholars and the historians differ in which of the following ways?A. the amount of scholarship that they produceB. the nature of their geographic focusC. the extent to which they are critical of early capitalismD. the extent to which they are interested in interdisciplinary studyE. The extent to which they restrict their focus to a particular time period2. The passage cites which of the following as a reason for historians’ failure to fully exploit literary criticism?A. historians’ overly thematic approach to literatureB. historians’ conservative notion of what constitutes literatureC. historian’s lack of interest in critical theoryD. the distinctive nature of much literary criticismE. the ahistorical quality of much literary criticism3. The passage cites which of the following as reasons for historians’ failure to fully exploit literary criticism?A. The amount of scholarship involvedB. The distinctive nature of literary criticismC. The ahistorical quality of much literary criticism数学部分1.A market analyst estimated that 1.9 million smart watches were sold in 2013 and 6.8 million smart watches were sold in 2014.

五科技类1. The primary goal of technological advancement should be to increasepeople’s efficiency so that everyone has more leisure time.2. Money spent on research is almost always a good investment, even whenthe results of that research are controversial.3. Humanity has made little real progress over the past century or so.Technological innovations have taken place, but the overall condition ofhumanity is no better. War, violence, and poverty are still with us.Technology cannot change the condition of humanity.4. When research priorities are being set for science, education, or anyother area, the most important question to consider is : How many people’slives will be improved if the results are successful.5. The function of science is to reassure; the purpose of arts is to upset.Therein lies the value of each.6. Technology creates more problems than it solves, and may threaten ordamage the quality of life.7. Most important discoveries or creations are accidental: it is usuallywhile seeking the answer to one question that we come across the answer toanother.六传媒类1. In the age of television, reading books is not as important as it oncewas. People can learn as much by watching television as they can by readingbooks.2. The purpose of many advertisements is to make consumers want to buy aproduct so that they will ‘be like’ the person in the ad. This practiceis effective because it not only sells products but also helps people feelbetter about themselves.3. Because of television and worldwide computer connections, people can nowbecome familiar with a great many places that they have never visited. As aresult, tourism will soon become obsolete.4. High-speed electronic communications media, such as electronic mail andtelevision, tend to prevent meaningful and thoughtful communication.5. In this age of intensive media coverage, it is no longer possible for asociety to regard any woman or man as a hero. The reputation of anyone whois subjectied to media scrutiny will eventually be diminished.七社会类1. Such nonmainstream areas of inquiry as astrology,fortune-telling, andpsychic and paranormal pursuits play a vital role in society by satisfyinghuman needs that are not addressed by mainstream science.2. Society does not place enough emphasis on the intellect-that is, onreasoning and other cognitive skills.3. It is through the use of logic and of precise, careful measurement thatwe become aware of our progress. Without such tools, we have no referencepoints to indicate how far we have advanced or retreated.4. At various times in the geological past, many species have becomeextinct as a result of natural, rather than human, processes. Thus, thereis no justification for society to make extraordinary efforts, especiallyat a great cost in money and jobs, to save endangered species.5. The absence of choices is a circumstance that is very, very rake.6. What society has thought to be it greatest social, political, andindividual achievements have often resulted in the greatest discontent.7. The well-being of a society is enhanced when many of its people questionauthority.8. Tradition and modernization are incompatible. One mustchoose betweenthem.9. The only responsibility of corporate executives, provided they staywithin the law, is to make as much money as possible for their companies.10. Many problems of modern society cannot be solved by laws and the legalsystem because moral behavior cannot be legislated.11. Scandals—whether in politics, academia, or other areas—can be useful.They focus our attention on problems in ways that no speaker or reformerever could.12. Practicality is now our great ideal, which all powers and talents mustserve. Anything that is not obviously practical has little value in today’s world.13. It is easy to welcome innovation and accept new ideas. What most peoplefind difficult, however, is accepting the way these new ideas are put intopractice.14. The best way to understand the character of a society is to examine thecharacter of the men and women that the society chooses as its heroes orits heroines.15. Progress is best made through discussion among peoplewho havecontrasting points of vies.八历史类1. The video camera provides such an accurate and convincing record ofcontemporary life that it has become a more important form of documentationthan written records.2. Most people would agree that building represent a valuable record of anysociety’s past, but controversy arises when old buildings stand on groundthat modern planners feel could be better used for modern purposes. In suchsituations, modern development should be given precedence over thepreservation of historic buildings so that contemporary needs can be served.3. The greatness of individuals can be decided only by those who live afterthem, not by their contemporaries.4. The study of history places too much emphasis on individuals. The mostsignificant events and trends in history were made possible not by thefamous few, but by groups of people whose identities have long beenforgotten.5. The study of history has value only to the extent that it is relevant toour daily lives.6. When we concern ourselves with the study of history, we becomestorytellers. Becauses we can never know the past directly but mustconstruct it by interpreting evidence, exploring history is more of acreative enterprise than it is an objective pursuit. All historians arestorytellers.7. So much is new and complex today that looking back for an understandingof the past provides little guidance for living in the present.8. The chief benefit of the study of history is to break down the illusionthat people in one period of time are significantly different from peoplewho lived at any other time in history.。

gre写作题库和范文The above argument concludes that when Happy Pancake House replaced butter with margarine in their restaurants in the Southwest, there was no effect on their customers. To support this claim, they point the fact that only 2 percent of customers have complained about the change and that many servers say customers do not complain when given margarine instead of butter. They reason that customers generally fail to distinguish margarine from butter or use the term ‘butter’to refer to both. However, their conclusions do not follow from the evidence presented.The author claims that only 2 percent of customers complained, and that this indicates 98 out of 100 people are satisfied. First of all, the statistic itself is suspect. Where does the 2 percent come from? Perhaps they estimated their total number of monthly customers based on sales figures and then divided their number of monthly complaints by that number, but the reader can only guess. What if customers tend to only complain the second time an error is committed? Depending on how the statistic was calculated, this could mean that it only represents half the extent of customer dissatisfaction.Second of all, even assuming the statistic is accurate,their assumption that 98 out of 100 people must then be happy does not logically follow. Some customers may not voice their dissatisfaction—perhaps the company’s protocol for filing complaints is too inconvenient for most customers to bother with, or perhaps dissatisfied customers stop dining at the restaurant altogether. Hence there are many possible scenarios in which complaint statistics do not accurately reflect customer dissatisfaction. The author could strengthen their argument by indicating how they arrived at the 2 percent statistic and why it is a valid measure of overall customer satisfaction.The second piece of data used in the author’s argument is even worse. Dispensing with numbers altogether, they put forward a weakly worded claim that “many servers” reported “a number of customers” do not complain when given margarine after asking for butter. The errors here are essentially the same as those in the preceding discussion, just more grievous. To begin with, how many data points were used? What constitutes “many” servers? The sample size was likely too small to generate a valid statistic, so instead we are left with this nebulous phrasing. Perhaps only a handful of servers in a couple of restaurants reported this; we cannot know. Maybe they onlylooked for feedback in poorly performing restaurants where customer expectations were already low; again, we cannot know.Furthermore, even if they were able to get a wide sample of restaurants and customers, it is possible that customers are reluctant to complain directly to servers because of the awkwardness it might cause. It also might be the case that butter and margarine are relatively unimportant to customers in comparison to the overall quality of their meal. We cannot assume their silence betokens a failure to distinguish butter from margarine, or that they must use the word ‘butter’ to refer to both spreads. Without some type of a control, this piece of data is essentially meaningless.Customer complaints can be a useful form of feedback, but the author fails to use them reasonably in their argument. Eliminating butter from their restaurants may very well be an effective long-term business strategy for Happy Pancake House. However, the pieces of data provided are not persuasive enough to advise that course of action.。

First Priority单一解释Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Governments should not provide any financial support for artists (musicians, filmmakers and painters).已写Which is better for university students? Taking many courses in one semester or taking three or four courses instead of in one semester?学的更精不容易挂科有课余时间做其他事To begin with, taking fewer courses in one semester enables college students to search for their interests. With fewer academic workloads from the courses students take, they can have more opportunities to take part in extracurricular activities so that they can meet new friends, learning from one another.. Had they taken many courses and spend most of their time in the academic work, they would not have opportunities for those great encounters. Besides, nowadays students go to university not for what they really like, but by demands of their parents or even simply follow their friends. So, if they take fewer classes in one semester, they will have plenty of time to look for what they really desire to take and learn in college, which is not just advantageous for their career, but also for their devotion on the academic work.Overworked shallow understanding error-prone wayDo you agree with the following statement?
