TPO34lecture1分析下篇

 3.According to the professor, why did some Dadaist write poetry by pulling words out of a hat?

A. To reflect the randomness they saw in the world

B. To illustrate the connection between poetry performances and magic shows

C. To indicate that Dada should not be taken too seriously

D. To demonstrate that Dadaists did not need much formal training

题目分析：这道题出现的位置在举例子的部分，我们要明确例子说明了什么道理。文章通常先会说一个道理，然后解释说明举例子。

原文：So another key Dada idea we talked about was the embracing of randomness. Right? Uh, if life is random, said the Dadaists, why would we make art that has order and logic? And so we have that collage we looked at, with an artist took different, you know, cut-out squares of colored paper, threw them onto the canvas, and wherever they landed, that was the composition of the work!Another favorite of the Dadaists was something called chance poetry.

文章中有信号词“另一个”，表示除了之前的重点，还有其它信息，之后介绍了“随机性”。并举了例子说明这一点。答案为：A

4.What does the professor identify as aspects of traditional play? [Click on 2 answers.]

A. Characters each have their own motivation.

B. A plot is developed.

C. The play consists of several acts.

D. Actors ignore the audience.

题目分析：文章中对比传统和达达艺术的区别，这正是我们需要注意的信息

原文：So it's not like a play. There's no real plot development here like you'd find in the traditional theatrical performance.The performers at the Cabaret Voltaire would also get the audience involved, which was extremely unusual. Think about a traditional play. The action's self-contained. The actors act as if there is no one watching, right? It's like a world unto itself. Well, at the Cabaret Voltaire, audience members could get up on stage and dance, or chant, or shout and sing from their seats.

And every night would be different, because there would be a different audience and a different set of acts and displays.So all these could get pretty chaotic. No barriers between the performers and the audience, and no barriers between kinds of art either. Think about it: poetry, paintings, music, dance...all on the same stage and often at the same time!

原文中提到了1达达戏剧不按照剧本的发展来进行 2有很多观众来参加。因为达达艺术与传统完全相反，所以传统戏剧的特点就是BD两个选项
