8.6 Critical Reasoning Answer Explanations
102. Theater Critic: The play La Finestrina, now at Central Theater, was written in Italy in the eighteenth century. The
director claims that this production is as similar to the original production as is possible in a modern theater.
Although the actor who plays Harlequin the clown gives a performance very reminiscent of the twentieth-century
American comedian Groucho Marx, Marx’s comic style was very much within the comic acting tradition that had
begun in sixteenth-century Italy.
The considerations given best serve as part of an argument that
(A) modern audiences would fi nd it hard to tolerate certain characteristics of a historically accurate
performance of an eighteenth-century play
(B) Groucho Marx once performed the part of the character Harlequin in La Finestrina
(C) in the United States the training of actors in the twentieth century is based on principles that do not differ
radically from those that underlay the training of actors in eighteenth-century Italy
(D) the performance of the actor who plays Harlequin in La Finestrina does not serve as evidence against the
director’s claim
(E) the director of La Finestrina must have advised the actor who plays Harlequin to model his performance on
comic performances of Groucho Marx
导演说，LF这部剧呢，极大程度的复原了这部剧在18世纪原产时的原汁原味，而实际演出效果呢，小丑H的表演风格根二十世纪美国喜剧演员GM很像，而GM的演出风格可以追溯到十六世纪意大利。
这是我对原文的理解。
如何理解问题这句话The considerations given best serve as part of an argument that
D说演员的表演不能成为反驳导演的证据，言外之意，演员的表演切合了当初导演的声称，是吧。
我不理解的地方是我觉得在16世纪意大利的表演风格和18世纪意大利的表演风格之间没有连接啊……，18世纪的LF这部剧的original production可以通过导演的话link到现在的Central Theater上演的LF这部剧，而现在在central theater上演的LF剧，可以通过演员的表演连接到美国演员GM，进而连接到十六世纪意大利。
信息链到此为止，我凭什么可以相信16世纪的和18世纪意大利的表演风格一样呢？如果一个像希区柯克，一个像吴宇森呢？！那这个当中还是有inconsistency不是？！
望高人解答。万分感谢……

首先，这个题干的意思是：
LF这部剧写于18世纪。目前在现代剧院上演，导演说，这部剧尽可能的保持了与原创相一致（虽然是现代上演），尽管演H的这个演员让人想起了20世纪的演员Marx。（言下之意，可能weaken保持最开始的风格的这个claim）
紧接着，题干解释，Marx的风格是从于一种自16世纪就开始的意大利喜剧传统的。（言下之意，虽然Marx人是20世纪的，但风格是传统的，所以化解了上面的可能的weaken）
至于你问的，16世纪到18世纪的linkage，见于“tradition that had
begun in sixteenth-century Italy”。注意这个词tradition

make sense，谢谢了

My point:
关于The considerations given best serve as part of an argument that
Considerations are given in the stimulus as premise or evidence.
The question wants you to choose an answer as a conclusion or main point of the evidence given.
So this is a MAIN POINT question.

N久之后再看这道题目居然无比清晰，哎……
我对题目的理解是：以上的这段话可以作为一下哪个论题的论据和论点，换言之，上面说的话可以证明下面哪个陈述是对的。（虽然肯定不是这样翻译的，但是做此题，我对这个问题的理解就是这样。）
A其实是无关的，根据题干陈述的内容，完全得不出A的内容，因为本人在上班的关系，实在不能够细细作答，见谅。楼上可以稍作思考，如果无果，我再试试给你作释。

请问E选项怎么解释呢？og里面的解释没看明白

杀G敬猴

E是说扮演H的演员的表演风格使评论家联想到了GM，但是不表示这种类似是故意的，也不表示说这是导演的安排

刚开始的时候这道题的题干我是真没读懂。因此不知道该题应该属于哪个分类。
The considerations given best serve as part of an argument that

后来做了仔细分析，如下：
1：considerations指的是题干的第二句话。
2：part of an argument that（an argument=正确答案，that引导的从句就是正确答案）
完整分析：The considerations given(题干的第二句话)，best serve as part of an argument（作为一部分论据最好地支持了），that（that引导的就是正确答案）

作者问的问题就是，题干第二句话所支持的结论是什么？这个结论，是一个子结论。
而这个子结论，和题干第二句话一起，作为论据的一部分，共同支持the director's claim（题干的Conclusion）。
因此，这道题的类型是Assumption。

希望能帮到和我一样纠结了半天的TX们。

问题问的是句子作用。Considerations表示Although the actor who plays Harlequin the clown gives a performance very reminiscent of the twentieth-century American comedian Groucho Marx, Marx’s comic style was very much within the comic acting tradition that had begun in sixteenth-century Italy.
best serve as part of an argument that 表明although后面句子对上文的作用。所以用了serve。
作用很明显D。
