Re: [問題] 問填充三題
※ 引述《Elehayym (艾莉海姆)》之銘言：
: Q1 The ---- nature of classical tragedy in Athens belies the modern image of
: tragedy: in the modern view tragedy is austere and stripped down its
: representations of ideological and emotional conflicts so superbly compressed
: that there's nothing ---- for time to erode.
: A: multifacedted (unadorned, harmonious, multifaceted)
: extraneous (inalienable, exigent, extraneous)
...in the modern view tragedy is austere and stripped down [ its
representations of ideological and emotional conflicts so superbly
compressed (that there's nothing ___ for time to erode)].
中括號是補充說明 the modern view of tragedy
小括號是進一步形容 compressed，為同義表達
但原文用了 nothing ，故選 extraneous
: Q2
: Stories are a haunted genre; hardly ---- kind of story, the ghost story is
: almostthe paradigm of the form, and ---- was undoubtedly one effect that Poe
: in mind when he wrote about how stories work.
: A: a debased (a debased, a normative, a mericulous)
: goosebumps (pessimism, goosebumps, curiosity)
hardly ___ kind of story, the ghost story is almost the paradigm
of the form ...
原文的 hardly 暗示逗點前後句義相對，後面用 paradigm 則前面
可與之對照的為 debased ， normative 較無對比性， mericulous 句義相同
... , and ___ was undoubtedly one effect that Poe in mind
when he wrote about how stories work.
分號前摘要說 stories 的類型為 haunted ，而這句說 Poe 在談寫作時心中所想，
只有 goose bumps 符合 haunted 的感覺
: Q3
: To the untutored eye the tightly forested Ardennes hills around Sedan look
: quite----, ---- place through which to advance a modern army; even with
: today's more numerous and better roads and bridges, the woods and the river
: Meuse form a significant ----.
: A: impenetrable (impenetrable, inconsiderable, uncultivated)
: an unpropitious (a makeshift, an unpropitious, an unremarkable)
: impediment (resource, impediment, passage)
: 在初心者眼中Ardennes hills看起來非常難以通過, 是一個不合適發展現代軍隊的地方
: ; 儘管有很多較好的道路和橋梁, river Meuse和樹木形成一種障礙
: 這題我以為險峻的地方更好發展軍隊
這題的 advance 指推進部隊、讓步隊前進
雖說 GRE 出題應該不能要求考生有題目本身以外的知識，
但這題若對 "曼斯坦計劃" 有印象或許會較容易答題 XD
二戰前法國就是因為覺得德軍裝甲部隊不太可能輕易翻越阿登山區，
所以這個方向的工事相對薄弱，沒想到德軍便從此處發動閃電戰
Ardennes hills, Sedan, river Meuse 都是這段歷史的地理名詞關鍵字 XD
可參考曼斯坦元帥的回憶錄 "失去的勝利" ...
有誤處煩請大家補充指正
謝謝~
