GRE短篇阅读怎么拿分

　　先看这篇文章：

　　Though artist Chuck Close has devoted his life to portraiture, his paintings rarely comport with that genre's traditional purpose. His early photorealist images, which are created by overlaying a grid on a photograph and painstakingly copying the image cell by cell, are, to the naked eye, nearly undifferentiable from photographs. Furthermore. Close's emphasis is on the disembodied head itself, expressionless and devoid of any overt personality. He has never acceded to commissions, relying on both his own image and his friends as models. In 1988, a collapsed spinal artery caused almost total paralysis, but Close has continued to work. His freer paintings evince a natural extension of an augmented interest in the minute grid over the total work that predated his illness. This nonprivileging of any particular part of the canvas finds its inspiration, oddly enough, in abstract expressionism, despite the apparent inconso-nance of the two techniques.

　　题目是这样的：

　　Consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply.

　　Which of the following statements are supported by the passage?

　　A. Close’s portraits are so realistic that they are sometimes mistaken for photographs.

　　B. There are conceptual connections between Close’s later work and other, apparently dissimilar works.

　　C. Throughout his career as an artist, none of the portraits Close has painted have been done in exchange for money.

　　这里要注意一点，commission在本题的意思, 并不是佣金, 而是委托的意思. 作为一个肖像画的画家, Chuck Close并没有接受过其他委托, 因此的他的模特是本人或者是朋友. 而文章中并没有说明他的画有没有被卖掉, 因此C的选项是错误的. A之所以也是错误是因为文章只说了是 near indifferentiable. 并没有提到有人被画, 这里就信息混乱。

　　本题的答案应为 B
