GRE官方题库原题49

Collectors prize the ancient life-size clay statues of human figures made on Kali Island but have long wondered how Kalinese artists were able to depict bodies with such realistic precision. Since archaeologists have recently discovered molds of human heads and hands on Kali, we can now conclude that the ancient Kalinese artists used molds of actual bodies, not sculpting tools and techniques, to create these statues. This discovery explains why Kalinese miniature statues were abstract and entirely different in style: molds could be used only for life-size sculptures. It also explains why few ancient Kalinese sculpting tools have been found. In light of this discovery, collectors predict that the life-size sculptures will decrease in value while the miniatures increase in value.

Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the prediction and the argument on which it is based are reasonable. Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the prediction.

题目翻译

收藏家很欣赏Kali岛出产的古代等身泥土雕像，但长期以来不清楚Kali的艺术家如何能够以如此高的精确度刻画人体。由于考古学家最近在Kali发现了人类头部和手的模具，我们现在可以得出结论：古代Kali艺术家使用真人的模子，而不是雕刻工具和技艺来塑造这些雕像。这一发现解释了为什么Kali的缩微雕像是抽象的而且风格迥异：模子只能被用于等身雕像。它同样也解释了为什么很少发现Kali的雕刻工具。由于有了这一研究进展，收藏家应预见到等身雕像的贬值以及缩微雕像的升值。

题目分析

1. 发现Kali的头和手的磨具，不足以排除kali人不用雕刻工具来制作statue

2. 发现头和手的磨具不能说明Kali人只在等身大小的雕塑身上使用磨具，更不能解释小雕塑抽象和形态各异的特点

3. 其他因素：作者没有考虑其他可能导致小雕塑贬值的因素，可能小雕塑多，大的少;或者大的更有意义，使君主的雕像，小的什么都不是

提纲参考

1. 发现模具不说明所有的雕像都是用真人模子做的，而且不用工具和技术。

2. 微缩雕像的风格与等身雕像没有必然联系。realistic

3. 充分必要条件。

4. 即使如此，等身雕像未必贬值，更珍贵。微缩雕像未必升值。
