10. Stage performances are judged to be realistic to the degree that actors reproduce on stage the behaviors generally associated by audiences with the emotional states of the characters portrayed. Traditional actors imitate those behaviors, whereas Method actors, through recollection of personal experience, actually experience the same emotions that their characters are meant to be experiencing. Audiences will therefore judge the performances of Method actors to be more realistic than the performances of traditional actors.
Which one of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
(A) Performances based on an actor’s own experience of emotional states are more likely to affect an audience’s emotions than are performances based on imitations of the behaviors generally associated with those emotional states.
(B) The behavior that results when a Method actor fells a certain emotion will conform to the behavior that is generally associated by audiences with that emotion.
(C) Realism is an essential criterion for evaluating the performances of both traditional actors and Method actors.
(D) Traditional actors do not aim to produce performances that are realistic representations of a character’s emotional states.
(E) In order to portray a character, a Method actor need not have had experiences identical to those of the character portrayed.
答案:B,我理解B是GAP,是假设。但是A呢?A不好,是不是因为是likely to ,所以不好?
如果A说:Performances based on an actor’s own experience of emotional states affect an audience’s emotions than are performances based on imitations of the behaviors generally associated with those emotional states.
其实在这里ETS 做了一个概念替换.原文中说judge的标准是能让观众把actor reproduce的behaviors 与the emotional states of the characters portrayed联系起来.而A是说performance更加能影响audience’s emotion.因此A不对.
